Managed services refer to a concept, wherein a third-party service provider manages an organization's in-house day-to-day management functions. Managed services involve outsourcing of services related to infrastructure, security, printing, mobility, and other functions, while the ownership rights stay with the end-user. It is estimated that successful deployment of managed services will help in reducing IT cost by 25-45% and will increase operational efficiency by 45-65%. The global market for managed services is expected to witness a high demand for information services and managed mobility. There has been a shift in focus toward managed services and their applications for both short and long-term strategic decisions. As managed services enable the companies to access enhanced applications and services that are possible in-house, it helps them to target their core strategic areas, while outsourcing the rest of the tasks to the service providers who possess the operational expertise in that domain.
