Abstract
his study established the relationship between Outsourcing and organization’s
performance in Crown Beverages Ltd Kampala city. Specifically, the study sought to
determine (I) profile of the respondents, (ii) extent of outsourcing, (iii) level of
Organization’s performance, (iv) whether there was a significant relationship between
Outsourcing and Organization’s performance.
A descriptive correlation and descriptive comparative were used in the study; data were
collected from 129 respondents using research devised questionnaire as the key data
collection instruments. Data were analyzed at univariate level using frequency counts,
mean, Pearson Linear Correlation Coefficient and regression analysis at bi-variate level.
The findings revealed that there was a low extent of Outsourcing in Crown Beverages
Ltd in Kampala city, that the level of Organization’s Performance in Crown Beverages
Ltd was low, that outsourcing in Crown Beverages Ltd in Kampala city was significantly
correlated with Organization’s Performance, rejecting the null hypothesis and the
findings of the study concurred with Urquhart (2002), Resource Based Theory to which
this study was based.
Recommendations based on the findings were that (i) Crown Beverages Ltd
should have adequate planning before outsourcing should be done, internal versus
external analysis of the Organization should be considered as a key element before
Outsourcing is done, and final results of the Outsourcing decision should be usually put
into perspective before the decision is made, (ii) Crown Beverages Ltd should always
set its objectives before Outsourcing, (iii) Suppliers should always be selected based on
their competences,(iv) Proper Outsourcing procedures should be followed by Crown
Beverages Ltd and costs should always be evaluated prior to the decision to outsource.
