3. Evaluate each candidate activity for outsourcing potential based on cost savings, efficiency gains, and risk.
4. Provide a prioritized list of activities recommended for outsourcing, with rationale.
5. Suggest potential outsourcing models (e.g., third-party vendors, managed services) and considerations for implementation.
