American Exceptionalism: My Bloody Sphincter!
In the 1970s, American companies began to outsource for several key reasons: * **Cost Reduction**: One of the primary motivations was to reduce labor costs by moving manufacturing and other processes to countries with lower wages and less stringent labor regulations. For example, General Electric (GE) under CEO Jack Welch moved manufacturing operations to lower-cost countries to maximize profits and reduce expenses * **Economic Globalization**: The global economic climate shifted from scarcity to abundance, and technological advancements made it feasible to produce goods on a larger scale. This led to higher operational costs, prompting companies to seek more cost-effective solutions through outsourcing * **Strategic Focus**: Companies aimed to focus on their core competencies and improve efficiency by outsourcing non-core functions. This allowed them to allocate resources more effectively and enhance their competitive edge * **Technological Advancements**: The development of the telegraph and other communication technologies facilitated remote communication, making it easier to manage operations across different locations. This was crucial for the growth of outsourcing * **Regulatory Environment**: U.S. companies sought to avoid stringent workplace and environmental regulations by moving operations to countries with more lenient laws. This provided additional cost savings and operational flexibility * **Access to Skilled Labor**: Some companies outsourced to gain access to skilled labor in specific fields, such as manufacturing and technology, which were often more readily available and less expensive in other countries These factors collectively contributed to the rise of outsourcing in the 1970s, setting the stage for its continued growth and evolution in subsequent decades. -

American Exceptionalism: My Bloody Sphincter!
False. Outsourcing in the USA began in the 1970s when manufacturing companies started to contract out non-essential production processes to external parties.4 The trend of outsourcing, also known as offshoring, gained significant momentum in the 1960s and 1970s as large corporations transferred their manufacturing processes to lower-cost countries.2 General Electric was one of the pioneers of outsourcing at the time.2 The practice of outsourcing, which involves using external providers to carry out business processes that would otherwise be handled internally, originated no later than 1981. -
