externalisation


Explanation:
outsourcing / externalisation

Déf. :
Action de confier à un tiers la gestion entière d'un secteur d'exploitation de l'entreprise.
Note :
L'usage du verbe externaliser et du participe adjectif externalisé est attesté.
Le but : optimiser le service rendu et maximiser les gains économiques de l'entreprise.
La Commission française de terminologie et de néologie en matière économique et financière (octobre 1997) insiste pour le maintien de cet équivalent bien conçu sur le modèle d'«internationalisation».
