If you do a task yourself ("in-house"), you are in control of the quality of the task performed. If you ask someone else to do the task for you ("outsource"), you cannot control its quality. If you are managing tasks of your employees (in-house), you will find that it take up valuable time (administration). If you outsource the tasks, it will be someone else who has to deal with the administration - saving your time.
