We celebrate the end of another successful year for Strategic Outsourcing - 8000+ downloads and growing
Carisma has met today with the Emerald Publishing Group today to discuss the glorious success of Strategic Outsourcing, an International Journal (SOIJ). The Publisher confirmed that SOIJ has just completed a second extremely successful year, having reached over 8,000 paid downloads of various articles published in the first 2 Volumes.
SOIJ has been praised for its entrepreneurial approach to publishing (its review turnaround averages 4 weeks, whereas the industry standard can reach up to several months) and its innovative approach to limiting publication to academic research with a clear impact on industry and society.
About Strategic Outsourcing, an International Journal
SOIJ is the first and only journal publishing scientific research and industry experience related to all aspects of the sourcing decision and process. It was founded by Dr. Marco Busi, who is also acting as editor-in-chief, and it is published by Emerald Group Publishing Limited, the world's leading publisher of management research.
SOIJ's mission is to foster and lead the international debate on Strategic Outsourcing by providing a central, authoritative and independent forum for the critical evaluation and dissemination of research and development, applications, processes and current practices relating to the design, implementation and undertaking of initiatives related to sourcing, procurement and purchasing of goods and services and the design and management of global enterprise networks.
We see two roles for SOIJ to span the boundaries across academic disciplines and across academia and industry. For a fuller understanding of what SOIJ is about, please read the editorial to the first issue.
