In the first sense, "IT outsourcing"
means hiring somebody outside your company
to provide IT services. Outsourcing
is most common for companies whose IT
needs are well known in advance. IT
outsourcing can also mean hiring someone
to be your IT department. Such a partner
must have people who can work closely
with your staff to understand your unique
business problems so that you can deliver,
implement, and service unique solutions.
Offshore Outsourcing of software
is simply software development at
another location, a facility connected
with the client's location using high-speed
data communication links to allow
engineers and managers to communicate
on a real-time basis. Clients on the
other side of the globe can monitor
developments and project milestones
on an up-to-the-minute basis, ensuring
both quality and progress. |
