Outsourcing with an In-House Advantage

Read This Before You Outsource

If you’ve already attempted to outsource IT projects, you certainly are aware of the challenges. If not, be forewarned there are many obstacles to overcome, including language and cultural barriers as well as logistics. The result can be unexpected delays, miscommunication, and costly errors.

If you’ve faced these issues, your natural reaction may be to take complete control over the next project and develop the project in-house. But there’s a problem – your cost advantage will evaporate. Or perhaps you may even call off the project, and say goodbye to the advantages of technology.

Leverage the best of both in-house and outsourced resources to maximize your return on investment.

Developing technologies can improve efficiency and give your business a competitive edge. However, because (IT) developers are in demand they command hefty salaries, and, often turnover quickly. Hiring internal talent to develop technology internally can be cost prohibitive and may not even ensure you’ll reach your goals.

Maybe you’ve already tried or thought about offshore outsourcing for your application development. After all, outsourcing can save money, expedite project development, and free up time for you to focus on your business’ core operations. Also, if you’re managing a small to mid-sized business, it can level the playing field, enabling your business to compete with much larger organizations that have the resources to fund cutting-edge technology.
