The In-House vs. Outsource Debate: The 2025 Report Has the Answers
The 2025 Global Benchmark Report for Content Production provides a clear look at the evolving dynamic between in-house teams and external partners. The report confirms the rapid rise of the in-house agency, with many teams strengthening their skills and extending their reach across the creative and production ecosystem.
The report's findings reveal that in-house teams are now a dominant force, handling a wide range of disciplines from strategy and ideation to content production and post-production. In fact, approximately 60% of production spend is now attributed to in-house teams.
However, the report also emphasizes that offshore teams continue to play a crucial role. They often serve as an extension of the in-house team or an external agency, handling tier 2 and tier 3 production tasks like repurposing, versioning, and editing. This allows in-house teams to focus on creative strategy, ideation, and planning. This balanced approach, combining in-house strategy with outsourced production, is becoming a strategic imperative for businesses looking to maximize value.
