The first issue is that of management and infrastructure.

How do you rate the effectiveness of consultants?
What happens if a consultant commits and doesn't deliver?
Apart from the organisational problems, there is also the issue of continuity.
All these, of course are manageable if the set of consultants register themselves as a company and offer their services through the company. But then by doing that, we are replicating the business model of Infosys/Wipro/whatever...
We are talking of a BPO like organisation. BTW wipro/ IBM/Reliance etc are doing precisely the same - get the contract then outsource.
