The outsource-er brings to the table skills that you may or may not have in your organization. We do EDI, only EDI, and we have a lot of experience in it because that's the business that we're in. We do integration. You may struggle to tie a PC translator to a unix legacy system and/or AS/400 back end, but we do them all the time. We bring the learning curve to the table instead of getting on the job experience at your site and on your tab. We don't ask "how do we use this translator to get the job done?" but "what's the best translator to get the job done."
No edi coordinator jobs were endangered in the creation of this response :)

Ok - From my question about translators I'm getting a lot of sales people offering to take my job away. : )
Any comments from experience on outsourcing?
Was anyone thrilled with the service they received? Was it the 'magic bullet' that made all of you problems disappear as promised?
Does anyone have any horror stories or pains form outsourcing?
Thanks
