Chapter 6 considers that by outsourcing more services to sustainably owned suppliers, the state can create important secondary benefits in terms of strengthening the role of these organizations in the economy while also improving public service outsourcing. Winning public contracts can help these organizations access finance and build other important resources (such as governance and measurement tools) to sustain and grow their business, to innovate, to diversify and to reward their workers. There is potential for a positive feedback loop in which the state can create win-win by reducing outsourcing risks at the same time as nurturing more sustainable market actors, tempering the wider problems of a financialized corporate economy for society.
