Outsourcing FAQs

This post is in response to a question a mate of mine asked about selecting a good Outsourcing partner.

Firstly to debunk a popular misconception – Outsourcing isn’t just about cutting costs Its also about adding value.

Outsourcing can:

  • Help achieve goals that you cannot achieve on your own
  • Give you a competitive advantage
  • Even make you money

Some types of Outsourcing:

  • Business Process – Customer Service, Finance, HR
  • Application – Development, Upgrades, Maintenance & Support, QA
  • Infrastructure – Data Center, Network, Security

All the tips I gave my mate are covered in this excellent article on Outsourcing projects to India. The pros and cons discussed in the article apply to any country or type of project. You can also get a couple of good pointers from this article on sourcing good Offshore Developers.
