Lawyer's Role
The "outsourcing lawyer"
defines the purposes, scope and methods of operation of this long-term
relationship that is neither a pure subcontract nor a fiduciary relationship. In
negotiating the long-term "infrastructure services" agreement, the
sourcing lawyer must navigate a balanced approach that should result in a
mutually beneficial contract that meets both sides' needs for certainty,
flexibility, risk management and enforceability. The sourcing lawyer is skilled
in a rigorous process of contract negotiation and renegotiation of long-term
contracts for complex, expensive and rapidly changing key services.
