Abstract: The study focuses on developing an outsourcing decision framework to assist the coal mining organisation to decide on outsourcing of operational activities. The proposed outsourcing decision framework integrates concepts of value chain analysis and core competency perspective that provides strategic dimensions towards decision-making over the conventional motive of short-term cost reduction. The analysis proposes a logical step-wise approach to classify the primary operational activities into core, partial-core, and non-core based on their contribution towards the organisational competencies.
