Which of the following would be the LEAST likely indication
that complete or selected outsourcing of IS functions should
be considered?
A. The applications development backlog is greater than
three years.
B. It takes one year to develop and implement a
high-priority system.
C. More than 60 percent of programming costs are spent on

Answer: B
The development and implementation of a high-priority system
typically would take from one year to 18 months. Having it
take one year would not be an indicator that outsourcing
would improve the development time. Choices A, C and D would
all be indicators that outsourcing selected IS functions may
be warranted.
