A local university contracted with IBM to implement a new database system, which the university would then administer and run. This is an example of what type of outsourcing? Application Personnel Process-based Consultant Project-based

The correct answer is Consultant Project Based

Explanation:

Outsourcing is hiring some company to execute tasks previously executed by the company itself.

This is a consultancy contract for the specified project as the services needed from the vendor IBM in this cases are designing of a database system. Once it's designed it would be administered and run by the university without the need of IBM. So we can say it's a consultant project based outsourcing
