采购正确的IT工程师对于项目成功至关重要。近年来，两种采购策略引起了人们的关注：众包和内部外源。每个人都有自己的好处和糟糕的观点。众包使组织能够按需从外部招募IT工程师。但是，使用机密信息进行封闭源代码的组织可能会担心安全问题（例如，信息泄漏）。另一种策略，即内源，可以通过采用开源软件开发实践来使组织中的任何IT工程师成为所有项目的成员。这改善了组织内部项目之间的IT工程师的移动性。但是，一个组织可以拥有的IT工程师类型有限制。在本报告中，我们提出了一种混合采购方法。它整合了开发软件的两种采购策略 - 众包和内部源源。这种方法将开发任务分配给软件众包或根据任务类型的内部源。作为案例研究，我们为工业项目采用混合采购方法。该项目为公交公司开发了Web应用程序系统。我们评估了混合采购的有效性和未来问题。
Sourcing the right IT engineers is critical for project success. In recent years, two sourcing strategies have been grabbing attention: crowdsourcing and inner-sourcing. Each has their own good points and bad points. Crowdsourcing allows organizations to recruit IT engineers from outside on demand. However, organizations working on closed-source code with confidential information might be worried about security concerns (e.g., information leak). The other strategy, inner-sourcing, can make any IT engineer in an organization become a member of all projects by adopting open source software development practices. This improves the mobility of IT engineers between projects inside the organization. However, there is a limit to the types of IT engineers that one organization can have. In this report, we propose a hybrid sourcing approach. It integrates the two sourcing strategies to develop software - crowdsourcing and inner-sourcing. This approach distributes the development tasks to either software crowdsourcing or inner-sourcing according to task type. As a case study, we adopt hybrid sourcing approach for an industrial project. The project developed a web application system for a bus company. We evaluate the effectiveness and future issues of hybrid sourcing.
