7.1 Förslag till fortsatt forskning
x Vilka faktorer är det som avgör om långsiktiga värden med outsourcing uppstår? Den tidigare forskning vi studerat belyser att företag kan uppnå andra värden på lång sikt än de som visar sig på kort sikt, vilket vår studie inte heller fokuserat på. En studie om vilka faktorer, exempelvis ledning och samarbete, som påverkar möjligheterna till detta vore därför ett intressant bidrag till forskningen om outsourcing.
x Påverkar storleken på den externa aktören företagsägaren i ett småföretag val av extern aktör? Litteraturen vi studerat i vår studie visar att en större extern aktör innebär att företaget kan dra nytta av skalfördelar. Å andra sidan skulle en större aktör innebära minskad synlighet för ett småföretag. En studie som belyser detta perspektiv skulle bidra med ytterligare kunskap om outsourcingprocessen i småföretag.
x Skapar ökat fokus på företagets kärnverksamhet ökad tillväxt i företaget tack vare outsourcing av aktiviteter som inte är relaterade till kärnverksamheten? Då teorierna vi studerat pekar på samtidigt som vi inte funnit någon studie som bekräftar detta vore resultatet av en empirisk studie intressant att ta del av.
