This research has revealed that analysis of macroeconomic factors of the host country, the factors regulated and determined by the government of the host country, the factors of international global market, company factors and the factors controlled by the company is purposeful, researching the environment of outsourcing transaction costs. Considering peculiarities of the country and different environmental factors, the stages of the proposed model can be revised, elaborated and specified.
