French term or phrase: en infogérance
Nous avons acheté le logiciel XXX pour traiter le risque opérationnel. Ce logiciel est en cours de paramétrage (en infogérance). Son installation s'effectuera chez nous le DD/MM/YYYY.

Termium and Eurodicautom give Facilities Management(defined as: the use of an independent service organisation to operate and manage a data processing installation). I'm, therefore, tempted to say that the software is currently being parameterized by our oursources. Would this be correct?
