Advantages of Offshore Software Development:
Outsourcing is one of the best measures to stretch your budget
and still get the highest quality. You can get your project done
in time and that too of best technical standards. Outsourcing is
strongly driven by the economic value it adds to your business.
Saves you from operational nightmares and no worries of
training professionals and retaining them
Give you a competitive advantage to concentrate on your
business capacity and start the project much faster and easier.
Gives you enough time and resources to concentrate on your core
activities.
You are not troubled by the infrastructure and equipment
investments. But instead get ready state-of-the-art furnished
offshore development centers to develop high quality IT
solutions.
You add on to your IT capacity by hiring the best offshore
vendors. Technical competence is enhanced since you are working
with the best IT professionals.
Consequently, outsourcing is the best solution to get the
highest ROI and remain in step with competition by getting
developed the highest quality IT solutions. But when it comes to
outsourcing to an overseas vendor are you really confident that
it will stretch your budget and not end up with a big hole in
your pocket? There are a few pitfalls of outsourcing, which you
need to be cautious of:
Lower quality than expected: you might end up wondering was
that a profitable bargain or not because you have lost on the
quality in the process. So, to avoid this you need to work
harder when choosing an OSP. Get the sample codes checked by
experts, analyze their coding standards,
investigate into their
bug tracking systems etc.
Poor project management: also impedes the quality and turn
around time of the project. So, you can have your onsite
executive who monitors the progress and keeps a check on the
scheduled timelines.
Subcontracting: is another evil as the overseas service
provider may exaggerate its potentials and skills and finally
subcontract it. You need to check the company's profile, success
stories and check on the references given.
Communication gaps: this is a typical problem with an
overseas-outsourced project. Language and cultural differences
add up to all this. So you need to agree upon certain fixed
standards of communication that are easy to follow by both of
you. Make sure that the service provider's personnel are well
versed with English. That will make your life much easier.
OSPs always place emphasis to highest advantageous projects so
to avoid getting neglected its better to freeze your time
schedule and milestones in advance and follow them stringently.
You should document the penalty in case the OSP fails to meet
the deadlines. You can also work out some incentives as well in
case of on time completion of a project.
Finally, if anything goes wrong in your professional relation
with the OSP, you should have well laid out contract that lists
everything and anything transparently, so that the loss of time,
money and resources is minimized.
