Samenvatting
Sourcing has become a popular practice for public
sector managers aiming for transformations to save
costs and improve service delivery. Nevertheless,
public sector sourcing often fails due to stakeholder
resistance and power struggles, stressing the need for
stakeholder analysis. This paper presents a decision
enhancement service for STakeholder ANalysis called
STAN. The design of STAN is based on sourcing
decision issues and observations obtained from public
sector sourcing cases, expert interviews and literature.
Foundations are derived from the stakeholder and
resource dependency theories. STAN enables to
identify stakeholder consensus levels that are
visualized on sourcing scenario overviews. The
assumption is that providing decision-makers insight in
stakeholder consensus levels enables them to
effectively decide which scenario to pursue and whom
to account for. Evaluation results are derived from
three public sector sourcing case studies, suggesting
that STAN achieves what it is designed for: providing
insight in stakeholder consensus levels for decisionmaking.
