The USCF has great name recognition but obviously the B&E Biz is too
expensive to run in-house - why not outsource the whole operation and
support to India, Mexico, etc.?

It's not "obvious" to everyone that "the B&E Biz is too expensive to run
in-house." Other people in this country sell products; why can't USCF?

What's obvious is that USCF is inefficient in how it processes orders. To
address this problem, USCF needs better computer hardware and software.

The process itself needs scrutiny before anything else. Technology is an
expense most of the time and not an innovation; address inneffectiveness before
inefficiency. Just my 1.9 cents worth.
