Small cities such as Ahmedabad and mega cities like &lt;em&gt;Delhi&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Bangalore&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Hyderabad&lt;/em&gt;, and Pune are now famous as &lt;em&gt;offshore outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; hub in whole world. Similar way, Indian BPO market is also in the booming phase. Many more IT enabled services for outsourcing such as account and payroll outsourcing with an advanced trend, and &lt;em&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; product development is way ahead growing in our country. There are many small to medium scale companies that are doing &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; of the product development to India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;In India only MNC were doing Software Outsourcing for the product development, so far, but now the trend is changing itself.

Currently, India is having more than 3.6 million small &amp;amp; medium scale organization that are increasing IT deployment for their firms. The competition with the respective business and cost make lots of pressure on these industries. Financial industry is the biggest outsourcer in the market that spends almost thousands of Crores for the Information Technology requirements.

In 21st century we heard the word: “Information Technology” many a times. The business of &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com" target="_blank"&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/a&gt; is matched with different nature of businesses and different nations as well. So this business exists in every country of the universe at some level. Many a countries are offering Information Technology services like U.K, U.S., Australia, China and India etc. but India and China are the hottest destinations for the business of &lt;em&gt;IT Project Development&lt;/em&gt;. India and China believe that they are competitors of each other. But first of all, we have to understand the meaning of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Outsourcing&lt;/strong&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;“Offshore Outsourcing is the way by which a company gives its projects to another company located offshore and can grow faster with new ideas at cheaper rates without their own set up and human resources”. There are some major reasons for the growth of the business of Offshore Software Development like: cost efficiency, marvelous quality with the least cost, and better focus on core competencies making &lt;em&gt;offshore outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; an attractive solution to various business requirements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Two types of businesses:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Buyers are seeking the services of Information Technology and also other development services. Usually they fall under one of the two types: Small Business and Medium to large business. Service providers have to understand the differences between the two types of businesses so as to deal with the buyers in a more effective manner.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;(1) &lt;em&gt;Small Business&lt;/em&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anybody can start a home based business or with few employees in the company. These businesses don’t invest more money and run with limited funds. Thus they look for similar solutions. These business look for solutions such as developing a shopping cart, business related software and also a web site. Sometimes companies believe that the Information Technology services consist of new development technology involving excellent programming skills, etc. In short, they believe&lt;br /&gt;that IT business requires particular skills and experience.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Some small companies can not provide full time software developers or programmers so in that case they must outsource their design and development work at low cost. Generally, in small companies there are no official agreements or contracts of the terms of the buyer’s requirement or service provider’s proposal, so the service providers have to do business based on personal relationship.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;(2) &lt;em&gt;Medium-to-Large Business&lt;/em&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not only small companies but also big established companies are going for offshore outsourcing. Service Providers have many developers or programmers to develop their programs and projects also. These companies are recruiting skilled and experienced developers to give their clients, better services and on-time delivery. To reach the top, they are hiring a huge staff and not looking at cost investment, and providing high scale salary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;There are various standards for big companies like &lt;em&gt;ISO 9001&lt;/em&gt;, CMM Level etc. &lt;em&gt;ISO 9001&lt;/em&gt; is a well-known quality standard recognized at the universal level. Ample numbers of offshore &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/06/uk-software-development-industry-is-in.html" target="_blank"&gt;software development companies&lt;/a&gt; have already accepted this valuable standard and many of the new companies want to go in this way. Some of these ISO certified companies may also opt for outsourcing existing work from in-house to outside resources in order to decrease the cost and thus prefer to outsource to small companies. In these companies there are legal contracts, formal agreements and work for hire agreements. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Basically, offshore outsourcing has begun from data processing companies and now a day it’s expanding all over the world. Many software companies call centers, BPOs, KPOs are increasing day by day at a global level and thus the business of offshore software development is booming large. Thus it is a lucrative business for IT service providers as well the buyers looking for offshore outsourcing business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2007/02/types-of-buyers-looking-for-offshore.html' title='Types Of Buyers Looking For Offshore Outsourcing Services'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/6781304159632811402'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/6781304159632811402'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-97117412797760583</id><published>2007-02-07T11:26:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2007-02-07T11:31:07.433+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Increased Custom Software Development to India and China</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Increased &lt;em&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/em&gt; to India and China has brought the great revolution in the Information Technology Era. From the current market trend it can be realized that more and more companies are turning toward these two countries for all types of IT Outsourcing services. Both these countries have enough potential for all types of IT services. India possesses enough potential&lt;br /&gt;for software services while China is more preferable for hardware services as both of them are capable of providing the lower cost and higher quality services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;The cost structure for the development work in the countries like United State, United Kingdom and Australia are very high. No doubt the quality of the work is good but the combination of good quality with lower cost in these countries is not possible. Costs in these countries are almost 4 to 5 times higher then it is in India or China. India is also developing a lot for in the Information Technology sector. Some of the cities of India such as Bangalore, Pune, Ahmedabad are now highly demanded globally also for the best quality development work. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Bangalore is also a hub for most of the overseas IT companies for lower cost and best quality &lt;em&gt;development work&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;In the current booming trend of Information Technology, &lt;em&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/em&gt; to India is playing key role in maintaining the development cost lower. As mentioned earlier, India has better pool of resources to serve the global need. And this is the main reason that more and more companies are targeting India for most of their IT Outsourcing services. Aggressive and positive role and attitude of Indian Government is also playing the important role in the glorious success of India. India also has one more advantage and that is the English speaking ability. Most of the Indians are fluent at English speaking and that helps India to gain advantage over the other in the global market.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;China is also equally popular for overseas IT services. But it is more famous for its hardware support to the globe. For &lt;em&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/em&gt;, India comes on the first place worldwide, while China wins the race for the Hardware types of IT Outsourcing. Both the countries also have lots of similarities for providing overseas services in the Information Technology Industry. Due to the heavy success of both of these countries some other nations have also started to put efforts in the field of overseas development work. Huge presence of local talent with great fluency over the English language helps India to capture the major share of the global market in the field of Information Technology.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;India and China have really covered the most of the overseas market in the field of &lt;em&gt;offshore IT service&lt;/em&gt; is concerned.

Gradually the business of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; is increasing as more and more countries are taking interest in overseas development. In this field many benefits are there like: higher profit margin, get a chance to work with global talent, to make better future, to get better knowledge not only of this field but also can get knowledge of different country’s culture, language etc. Now a day the whole world is becoming highly techno-savvy rapidly as the use of Information Technology is increasing.

Sometimes the overseas development work’s quality is going beyond the expectation of the customers, with the lower cost. And this is the main point that is attracting the attention of the companies to take the benefit of Custom Software Development at the global level. Finally, review of the comparison is that “offshore service is good, marvelous and mind blowing service of the Information Technology industry. The development cost of the onshore is very high in some of the countries therefore those country’s &lt;em&gt;IT companies&lt;/em&gt; prefer the overseas development work to reduce the development cost.

Countries like India and China are highly demanded destinations for all the types of overseas Information Technology services. Both the countries are competitors of each other in the field of Custom Software Development. India still has better place in the market compared to China though.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Another advantage of the &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; is to gain the access over the latest technology prevailing in the market place. It helps in maintaining the competitive edge at the global level. Global market has also become highly volatile due to the increased demand of Custom Software Development. As compared to previous scenario of overseas development, more and more companies prefer to accept Custom Software Development business operating process to overcome the cost factor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2007/01/custom-software-development-considered.html' title='Custom Software Development considered as a successful business'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/117021763588696590'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/117021763588696590'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-116843602067868180</id><published>2007-01-10T19:01:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2007-01-10T19:03:40.693+05:30</updated><title type='text'>INDIA AS A SOFTWARE OUTSOURCING DESTINATION</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;India as a &lt;em&gt;Software Outsourcing destination&lt;/em&gt; has got huge growth from service perspective globally.

The meaning of Offshore Software Development was circulated by one of the famous author's book "The wealth of Nations" in the year of 1776.

For all those one time high paying the market of computer programming jobs are starting to be filled with less expensive &lt;em&gt;offshore software programmers&lt;/em&gt;. Certainly it welcomes in the globe of competition for &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!279E88EACFF2FFFB!157.entry" target="_blank"&gt;offshore software development&lt;/a&gt; that could be viewed as a combination.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;The person of USA believes there are mostly negative contentions towards the new trend of big organizations in America for &lt;em&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; jobs. One might be having knowledge for the underlying tone, which is very similar for big companies that only care about profits but not regarding employees or workers. Honestly, when the topic is with large business, one can agree with points from both the sides of the discussions. But with the small business organizations, what is often lost in these discussions of &lt;em&gt;offshore software development&lt;/em&gt; jobs are the opportunities it creates.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;There is some small business opportunity being able to win local clients then clearly articulate &amp; manage the software project for &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com" target="_blank"&gt;offshore Outsourcing developers&lt;/a&gt;. More time need to spend for thinking on strategic level of concepts &amp;amp; some ideas that fulfill tactical operations level. One might have not realized this by overnight and it has taken some more years to accept the truth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;The main question is, whether &lt;em&gt;offshore software development&lt;/em&gt; is nice thing to do or bad thing for today and tomorrow as well? One can try offshore software development at their beginning or work and spends whole day for fixing &lt;em&gt;offshore developers code&lt;/em&gt;, but they could save boatload of money by&lt;br /&gt;offshore outsourcing and software development etc. Clients for website development expect to pay cheaper rates than what they did in the nineties regardless of their company’s size. To hire &lt;em&gt;offshore software programmer&lt;/em&gt; with lower development cost for profit margin allows the projects to be worth-while. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;There is opportunity for anybody to spend some time on clerical and technical defining architecture. Project will be managed by regular communicating with Software or IT developers and clients rather than just writing the program. These points are being more evaluated in larger enterprises as compared to small organizations. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;As client wins the organizations wins automatically, &lt;em&gt;offshore software development&lt;/em&gt; employee win by itself due to more than satisfied of work. If one tries &amp;amp; creates global &lt;em&gt;Offshore Development&lt;/em&gt; competition barriers then they are making a path towards lose-lose and lose by building walls around competitors / industry and this is not the actual answer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/12/offshore-software-development-and.html' title='Offshore Software Development and business opportunities'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/116679337856171474'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/116679337856171474'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-116616139324750654</id><published>2006-12-15T10:16:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-12-15T11:13:21.683+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Growth of Offshore Software Outsourcing in India</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Growth of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; in &lt;em&gt;India&lt;/em&gt; is expanding at lightning speed with the increasing demand of the country for more and more &lt;em&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/em&gt; services globally. Till date only European countries used to take help of overseas development work to reduce the cost but gradually the whole world has started to look for the overseas option for cost effective and better quality services. Again in the list of the better overseas service providers, India rules the globe for &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.spaces.live.com" target="_blank"&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt;. In last 3-4 years demand of India has increased more then 100% for such custom development work in the field of Information Technology.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;The general survey also represents that India and China are the two biggest places globally for overseas investment. Many companies and countries are investing a lot of money in these two countries, especially in Information Technology Industry. Compared to China, India gets higher priority when it comes to overseas investment for custom development work. India has so many advantages over China to attract more and more investors from the globe. And the most important advantage is the fluency over the English language that India has over China being a Non-English Country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;If we compare both the countries, both have many similar advantages to offer to the globe for &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/services.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing services&lt;/a&gt;. Population wise both the countries are on the top of the list, so ample amount of talents and men power is available in both of these countries. Both the countries are highly techno savvy and has highly skilled and professionals to provide high end &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com" target="_blank"&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/a&gt; services to the globe. There are nos. of &lt;em&gt;Information Technology companies &lt;/em&gt;in both the countries that boosts in better Offshore Software Development to it. But there are still some factors that differentiate both the countries from each other.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;India has better fluency over the English language that helps it a lot for the better growth of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt; globally. Lower development cost and better quality development services also add credit to Indian Custom Software Development services and attract the overseas companies more to work with India. Bangalore city of India is the most demanded city globally for the&lt;br /&gt;best quality Information Technology services. The city possesses the presence of almost all big IT brand names and companies for the Offshore Software Development to India.

These executives quickly note that it never means washing their hands of accountability for out- of-house work by IT Outsourcing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Odds : &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;The new competency in &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com" target="_blank"&gt;IT Outsourcing organizations&lt;/a&gt; is described as managing a portfolio of suppliers in an integrated fashion. That tells that it usually sees a progression of successfully offshore outsourced functions. They tend to begin with legacy application support activities and often move from there to porting applications from one computing system to another one, to standardized feature updates. The important step is handing off market-facing requirements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Worth to IT Outsourcing : &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;In IT Outsourcing, the leaders seem to be learning the appropriate balance for outsourced and in-house work. One need a certain scale to overcome the logistics and communications issues that arise, whose company provides &lt;em&gt;Information Technology resources&lt;/em&gt; and services for nationwide distributors of food-service items, janitorial supplies and printing paper. It all takes longer than if one&lt;br /&gt;in the same room. There's a cost associated with that. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Not to outsource : &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Some points out that one can't outsource regulatory compliance that advises having a chief security officer focusing on security requirements that apply to the outsourced community, such as policies for access control. For example, it's a violation of Act if you don't know actual place where the software is being developed or if outsourcer has further outsourced their development to someone else. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Considerations by Offshoring : &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;It is now traditional in the industry to send &lt;em&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; by means of &lt;em&gt;software development offshore&lt;/em&gt;, particularly to India. Some insisting that IT outsourcing staffers become part of own corporate culture in terms of how they work and when they deliver the most important project work. In other words, we expect the outsourcer to follow its partner's own business processes and internal deadlines, even though workers are technically employed by another company. Otherwise owner might get back a project that does some things right but not the main things.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;And there is one more obstacle to consider good &lt;em&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; that is the company used expensive contractors, many of whom weren't interested in converting to full-time employment. The reason, in part, was that they had no competition; many of those contractors have converted to full-time employment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/12/now-days-top-it-executives-tend-to.html' title=''/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/116540822124683958'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/116540822124683958'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-116047476316601816</id><published>2006-10-10T15:24:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-10-10T15:36:03.220+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Offshore Software Development is facing rapid growth</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/services.htm"&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is facing rapid growth with the increased demand of overseas development services. Gradually the process of sending the development work to the overseas service providers is replacing the costly in-house development job work. According to the experts &lt;em&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; has been an important business tool to maintain the positive in the global market place. The whole world is becoming more techno-savvy and almost all the industries are now shifting to the IT services. In &lt;em&gt;IT Industry&lt;/em&gt; also all the companies are also scheduling very thigh budget to offer the unique services. Continuing with the local service providers is not helping more to meet the economical challenges and Offshore Software Development seems to be the best alternative for all these issues.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Increased market cost and market competitions have really made it tough to continue with traditional business approach. IT Companies from India and China are offering very low cost and high quality development services. As a part of overseas dealing most of the overseas development work in software industries goes to India. India and China are the toughest competitors for all possible &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.netfirms.com/outsourcing-news/"&gt;Offshore IT Outsourcing services&lt;/a&gt;. Both the countries are almost offering equal overseas development services in Information Technology Industry. India has better market share though due its great fluency over English language.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Market for Offshore Software Development&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Competition in the market for Offshore Software Development is increasing rapidly with the entrance of new market players such as Philippines &amp;amp; Russia. Both the countries are in the initial stages of the &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/strong&gt; and doing well, still competing with India or China for the same is really very tough for them. In this way the rapid growth of services providers and because of new entrants in the field of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt; has boosted up the overall process of overseas development services. Companies involved with such business issues are also gaining many advantages due to highly competitive market. Some of the associated advantages of it are flexibilities, cost cutting, availability of services as per requirements and concentration on core business values.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Many times due to the time restriction also companies prefer to take the help of overseas services providers. Again becoming a partner with the Offshore Software Development vendor also helps in reducing lot many duties. It helps in not finding the appropriate talents in an unknown country, no HR or infrastructure cost, lower down the business risk and many others. &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/06/metavante-joins-with-indian-offshore.html"&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; is also one of the best tools to expand the business at global level.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Above is a small summary of some of the advantages of the overall business process.

Some of the IT companies are also conducting surveys to trace the exact market position of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; and result of this study indicates a rapid growth in the overseas services industry. This survey included most of the major IT Companies that are heavily involved in Offshore Software Development business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;According to study 87 percentage of the total executives of these different Software Companies mentioned that they/their company is already heavily involved in the overseas development services and every year the amount of work going overseas is also increasing. Again according to experts, the amount of work going overseas will increase in the coming years. These executives and experts also stated that they would prefer India or China for such overseas IT development services rather then their own service providers. There are also some cases of disillusionment though.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development Services&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In information technology industry, craze of overseas development services is almost on the top compared to other industries. &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt; has grown well, developed rapidly and now become very mature to replace the traditional business approach. According to the observation, companies prefer to shift towards more sophisticated &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://offshore-outsourcing-india.greatnow.com/offshore/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt; business strategies to remain competitive in the global market. Companies are also becoming more mature and aware for the possibilities and different ways to gain better Offshore Software Development services. The build, operate and transfer model in overseas development has got tremendous growth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Companies are now also adopting different internal reviews and surveys to define what should and what should not go out of company’s premises for &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt;. Countries such as US and UK are the major players that outsource their development work heavily as the current development cost in these countries is very high. Survey also suggests that India is the most demanded spot for these countries for better Offshore Software Outsourcing services and almost having 70-75 % market share of Offshore Software Development industries is captured by India. Again study indicates that there is a very tight competition between central and eastern European countries and china for the second spot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;This overseas development services study also focused on failure rates. The result indicates that, only 4% to 6% of the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/tcs-and-microsoft-to-set-up-software.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;software outsourcing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt; buyers are dissatisfied with the service they receive. Around 42% to 44% people are very satisfied with this business process. Again it is marked that wide spread rumor indicates that very high percentage of buyers are unhappy. The study also revealed that there is a vast pool of people who believes that service and business standards improve due to &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/10/offshore-software-development-growth.html' title='Offshore Software Development Growth'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115986021046015494'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115986021046015494'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115936283260596053</id><published>2006-09-27T18:19:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-09-28T16:39:03.036+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Software Development and Some Important Issues</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In this article of &lt;em&gt;Software Development&lt;/em&gt; and some Important Issues, we have tried out point out some crucial issues about the &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/offshore-software-outsourcing-and.html"&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; and development process. Let us first of all define what exactly such development means? Is it an art, engineering, science, craft or something totally different? Again does such debate matter at the time of entering in to any Software Development process? The answer is Yes it matters a lot. Action of the respondents and its outcomes would differ from each other based on the above outcomes. Generally we all look for defect free and rapid outcomes. But along with that, we also love to examine how the development team is working.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In such type of overseas development services there may be many constraints that one has to face. One should learn to differentiate distinct and discrete point in the enormously rich stream of experience flowing over us. We should also try to pull out those aspects for proper examination. In short to reexamine the concept of the development services one should reconsider our past experience. &lt;em&gt;Overseas IT development services&lt;/em&gt; have been the future trend for better business in highly competitive market. It is also true that software development is altogether a different issue than engineering.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Software Development Services&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Overseas development service in the Information Technology has become very useful term today. There are certain rules and behavior methodologies defined that can be useful to reach to the certain outcome as a part of Offshore Software Outsourcing. Most of the &lt;em&gt;IT Companies&lt;/em&gt; now try to experiment newer ways for better &lt;strong&gt;Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; services. Different approaches such as personal software programming, development service modules and many others are now coming into the market to cope up with the current market pace. Even clients also examine many certain points before entering into any Software Development deals with the overseas parties. Vendor Companies must is able to differentiate their services uniquely.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Studying the whole process of Software Development is an art. One should study all the aspect well before entering into any &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing process&lt;/strong&gt;. The fact is well studied overseas IT services can really help in fetching some good business and in the same way it can also lead you to the lost if not taken proper care. Again it depends on the destination you select for the &lt;a href="http://www.softwareoutsourcing.ibusinessdot.com/"&gt;Software Development Services&lt;/a&gt;. In the current market, India and China are two of the most demanded destinations for all the types of overseas IT development services and in that also India has the highest market share.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Overseas development service in any of the industries along with software is always going to be challenge. Still your way of approach toward the &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/software_development_work.htm"&gt;Software Development process&lt;/a&gt; can become the main cause of your success.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/software-development-and-some.html' title='Software Development and Some Important Issues'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115936283260596053'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115936283260596053'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115884360737676766</id><published>2006-09-21T18:24:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-09-21T18:34:55.653+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Ethics in Offshore Software Development</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Ethics in &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/offshore-software-development-trend.html"&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is one of the key terms to lead the business relationship for the long-term. Ethical business policies can help in reducing unwanted risks and increase in overall profitability. Every business, whether it is a small or big, faces ethical issues at many different stages of life and business. Again in &lt;em&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt;, ethical issues are very important. In today’s world if anyone says that he is yet to face any ethical business problems then I wonder about his encounter with the real corporate world. It is also true that such business relationships are more of economic then the ethical but still as far as overseas dealings are concerned ethics are must. Offshore Software Development also requires wide range of expertise as well as deep study of all the associated factors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;As far as ethical issues are concerned they also have equal importance and influence over the whole overseas business process as compared to the economic terms and values. The issues and business become more complex when it comes to deal with overseas services providers or clients. In such dealings both the engaged parties are continents away and have different way of business policies from each other. Again being in different continent sometimes it also becomes hard to judge the potential of each others. At this point of time ethical issues and concepts come into the picture.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;As ethic is all about selecting the right and wrong, it really helps a lot at the time of taking some important decisions in Offshore Software Development. Question for selecting the ethical companies at the time of selecting &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.spaces.msn.com/"&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; partners still remains though. Companies that represent the strong ethical concerns are also considered to have strong character and global image. One thing is sure that in successful &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt;, ethical issues matter a lot for everyone whether he is an individual or a company. It also makes good sense to deal with an individual having the higher ethical values then working with a big company with no ethical concerns.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Following ethical business process is also considered to be an Acid-Test. Performance of your Offshore Outsourcing partner at the time of some real critical situation can help to judge his real business ethical values. Having mutual understanding with the Offshore Software Development partner also helps in solving some real business issues many times. Ethics in business assists in developing space for better business opportunities in the future. In such business, legal issues also have some specific respects and have its own unique place. Such issues can not be compared with the &lt;em&gt;Ethical Issues&lt;/em&gt;. Legal, ethical and moral issues in such overseas &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/services.htm"&gt;software services&lt;/a&gt; have equal importance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;One thing is also there that in today’s highly competitive world of overseas business services every single individual claims to be ethical. Defining the exact parameters for the ethical issues in &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; is also not possible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/ethics-in-offshore-software.html' title='Ethics in Offshore Software Development'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115884360737676766'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115884360737676766'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115829700832058713</id><published>2006-09-15T10:37:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-09-15T14:43:18.706+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Offshore Software Development Trend</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/services.htm"&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; trend in the present Information Technology market is on the boom with the increased demand of the overseas service providers for high quality and cost effective services. According to the overseas IT market study, more then 53% of Silicon Valley’s Software Companies are heavily involved in the process of &lt;em&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt;. The study also indicates that more then 60% of such overseas development services and job work goes to India. India is one of the best suitable destinations for cost effective Offshore Software Development Services. India has a huge class of IT Educated and English Speaking talents and plays a major role in the success of the country on global level. This makes country India as one of the best places for overseas &lt;em&gt;IT services&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;India has been offering overseas Information Technology and software services for more then a decade. In the initial days most of the countries used to avoid India for similar IT services. But the overseas development trend has changed in last 3 to 4 years or so and India has reached on the top of the service provider’s list. Although some other countries such as &lt;em&gt;China&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Philippines&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Russia&lt;/em&gt; are also coming up well for the similar services. Though, India is leading the overseas service industry by far and has noticeable lead over the others. India captured the highest market share, while China has around 10-12% of it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development services&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Though, India has done well to maintain its position as a market leader by offering the good quality and lower cost Offshore Software Development services, but now the overall competition is increasing. Service providers from India are now required to come up with some different strategies to maintain their position in the &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.netfirms.com/outsourcing-news/"&gt;IT Outsourcing market&lt;/a&gt;. Rising cost of Rupees against Dollar is also making the development services from India costly and it leads to the competition in the overall market. China is the leading most competitors of India, but India’s fluency over the English speaking language keeps it ahead for Offshore Software Development services. Fluency over English language also leads to the increased demand of &lt;em&gt;call-center service&lt;/em&gt; to India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In India there is a huge presence of local Indian &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/index.htm"&gt;software companies&lt;/a&gt; along with the noticeable presence of overseas IT giants such as IBM, Wipro, Apple Soft and many others. These foreign countries are also investing very heavily in India for &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt;. Bangalore city of India is well-known at global level for its IT services and other cities of the country such as Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad and &lt;em&gt;Ahmedabad&lt;/em&gt; are also emerging noticeably for IT Outsourcing services. The increasing demand of the IT services has also brought revolution in almost all the industries.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The world is really becoming tiny with the increased use of the Information Technology in the real life and the cost effective &amp;amp; high quality &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; has boosted up the IT Industry a lot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/offshore-software-development-trend.html' title='Offshore Software Development Trend'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115829700832058713'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115829700832058713'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115805727281425086</id><published>2006-09-12T15:55:00.001+05:30</published><updated>2006-09-12T16:27:21.920+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Increased earnings in Offshore Software Development</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;With the ongoing demand of the IT services, increased earnings in &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/offshore-software-development-and.html"&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/a&gt; in noticed. The main reason behind the increase profitability is the increased competition in the market. Vendors are enforced to offer the high quality services at the lower and competitive cost to sustain in the market. The equation for delivering the &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; services is also changed to deliver better and more with lower cost. In the countries such as US and Europe, advantages to deliver the Offshore Software Development job to India is realized lot earlier. The key factors are on demand availability of techno-savvy talents with high fluency over English Speaking Language. Along with this cost benefit is also playing the important role for success of India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In India one can easily find the pool of the IT companies as well as on demand IT talents for all types of development services. As well as companies from Europe and US also find highly cost effective services from India with compared to their local market. High availability of &lt;a href="http://offshore-outsourcing-india.greatnow.com/offshore/"&gt;software service&lt;/a&gt; providers also helps them in negotiating the cost with the vendors. As the competition in the market is increasing, it also makes the steady decline in the development cost to maintain the market share. Quality is no longer a competitive factor as all the service providers offers the highest quality &lt;em&gt;software &amp; web development services&lt;/em&gt; and now the real deciding factor is the cost of services. Many of the service providers have gained the good market certificates to ensure the highest quality services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;It is also marked that many companies end the day with the loss in the accounting journal because of the price margin. Sustaining in the competitive market based on the qualitative services is no longer possible for &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt;. The development cost also plays the equal or higher role for any company to sustain in the market. Generally companies have different pricing models to ensure the best competitive prices in the market of &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/software_development_work.htm"&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt;. Most of the companies also have the flexible pricing models to gain the project any how from the market. Still many a time companies are marked to loose the project in spite of the best possible estimation in Offshore Software Development. Price competition has really posed a great question of survival for no. of service providers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;It is also marked that many countries are also entering into the business of Offshore Software Development to gain the advantages associated with it. Countries such as Russia &amp;amp; Philippines are considered to be new entrance in the market of Offshore Software Outsourcing services with the huge presence of India and China. &lt;strong&gt;India&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;China&lt;/strong&gt; are close competitors for such IT outsourcing services where India can be considered to be the leader because of the factors such as higher availability of &lt;em&gt;IT professionals&lt;/em&gt;, fluency over the English language and very competitive cost of the development services. These three could be considered the key factors for the success of India as &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt; leader globally. India also have many IT cities and among them Bangalore is considered to be the IT hub for the globe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Increased competition in the market has really made the IT service provider to think about some innovative way of business process to maintain their position for &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/increased-earnings-in-offshore_12.html' title='Increased earnings in Offshore Software Development'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115805727281425086'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115805727281425086'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115762811971974792</id><published>2006-09-07T16:45:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-09-07T16:58:45.990+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Custom Software Development with Test-Driven Development Team</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Custom Software Development with Test-Driven Development Team seems to be a new business trend emerging in the &lt;em&gt;Information Technology&lt;/em&gt; market. It is also true that many of the programmers contempt Software Quality Assurance testing. The main reason is it takes time to the delivery of the application. Still not all the developers think in the same way and it is due to the rise of Test-Driven Development process and some other swift methodologies to &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/software_development_work.htm"&gt;Software Programming&lt;/a&gt;. The fact is more and more Information Technology professional have now started to accept this testing services for the better quality &lt;strong&gt;Custom&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Software Development&lt;/strong&gt;. It also helps in speeding up the development work.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Even software giants such as &lt;em&gt;Compuware&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;IBM&lt;/em&gt; &amp; Computer Associates have also started to distribute testing friendly devices and toolsets with all possible support for unit and functional testing at the time of application development procedure. In the initial stages say a long back, &lt;a href="http://www.softwareoutsourcing.ibusinessdot.com/"&gt;software&lt;/a&gt; developers used to perform all the quality assurance practices well before the delivery of the program to the clients to make it sure that developed software matches the exact requirements of the clients. But now the scenario seems to have changed. But now with the changing demand of the market and customers want better quality services; software testing is becoming the important part for most of the developers and companies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Most of the &lt;em&gt;IT Companies&lt;/em&gt; have also started the separate testing department to meet the exact quality assurance requirements of the client for Custom Software Development. Generally now in most of the companies development teams perform the &lt;strong&gt;Software Programming&lt;/strong&gt; work while testing department measure the quality of the project. As the competition has increased in the market no companies would like to be blamed for the bad or low quality development work. Though, for &lt;em&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/em&gt;, different companies are adopting different strategies. Again the real and more comfortable approach can be different from this.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Quality Assurance to make Custom Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Companies should also try to put developers and testers unit together to understand all the functions in a better way and both the teams should work together as a single unit. It is also marked that many of the developers also demand for Quality Assurance to make Custom Software Development better. Such type of QA also helps the process of Software Programming through automated test designed to tackle certain points.

India has become the market leader globally for most of the overseas IT services and &lt;em&gt;web development&lt;/em&gt; services. Amount and presence of Software Companies in India is also increasing with the growing demand of the country for lower cost and top quality software and other IT services. All these &lt;em&gt;IT Companies&lt;/em&gt; have also started to get involved in &lt;em&gt;BPO&lt;/em&gt; &amp; &lt;em&gt;Call-Center Industry&lt;/em&gt; as the demand of India is also rapidly increasing for the same. India has also become the key player for most of the IT services seekers globally. There are some critical factors that play key role in the success of Software Development India. All these factors are mentioned below.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lower labor cost:&lt;/strong&gt; India is the country that provides development service at very lower rate. India has a wide pool of IT talents and professionals. India also has a higher ratio of IT education system with it. Country also produces a big no. of IT professionals every year with high quality of education standards. That helps the country to offer top quality development services at lower development cost.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Development of India:&lt;/strong&gt; Development structure of the country is also remarkable as the country is equipped with latest &lt;em&gt;information technology&lt;/em&gt; equipments and good telecommunication facility. Infrastructure development of the country is good too. India is also paying more attention on its IT hub Bangalore and trying to make it more perfect to meet the global requirements for all types of &lt;a href="http://softwarenews.wordpress.com/"&gt;software&lt;/a&gt; and other IT services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IT Brand Names:&lt;/strong&gt; Software Development India being an IT giant has no. of globally demanded IT service providers with it. Some of the brand names of Software Companies from the house of India have been a global trade mark for the country. Along with that many of the Global IT giants such as &lt;em&gt;IBM&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Microsoft&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Accenture&lt;/em&gt; and many others also have their great presence in India to obtain the best quality services and resources for their growth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;BPO Service:&lt;/strong&gt; Along with all these Software Development India is getting demanded for BPO/KPO services. Increased demand of call-center services from India is thankful to the prevailing standard of education in the country. These services of call-center and KPO are becoming more popular and many of the &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/"&gt;Offshore Software Companies&lt;/a&gt; have also started to invest in these areas in India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Support of Government:&lt;/strong&gt; Role of the government is also very critical and the most important in the rapid growth of Software Development India. Government support in the development of India is also remarkable and it is helping a lot on infrastructure and technology improvement in the country. Indian Government has also played key role in the development of Bangalore city. Bangalore is considered to be a Global IT Hub for any type of software and other IT services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;All above are some of the crucial factors that are playing a key role in the success of Software Development India for all possible types of &lt;strong&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/strong&gt; services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/09/increased-demand-of-software.html' title='Increased demand of Software Development India'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115735171894936069'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115735171894936069'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115717950447276129</id><published>2006-09-02T12:10:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-09-02T12:15:04.486+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Offshore Software Development and multi outsourcing service providers</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/offshore-software-development-has.html"&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; and multi outsourcing service providers, trend is prevailing rapidly in the &lt;em&gt;Information Technology&lt;/em&gt; market as companies are now trying to avoid the as much risk as possible. Sharing the development work among more than one Offshore Development service provider seems appealing to the clients. According to them, the amount of risk involved in depending on single service providers is very high compared to take the help from multi &lt;em&gt;outsourcing service&lt;/em&gt; providers. Companies always find good scope to move ahead with more than one Offshore Software Development service providers. Amount of risk reduces because the work gets distributed in such option and they don’t have to rely upon a single service provider.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In recent some cases of frauds had come up in the market especially in the call-center industry, and that is the main reason that companies are now becoming more concern about the security of their data privacy also. Development services from more than one software service providers gives them more option for everything, including price comparability, time flexibility and many other checkable options. Companies can also enter into the price negotiation with the service providers because of the multi options. Here the amount of risk also gets distributed between the no. of service providers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development Services&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;As far as such overseas IT and Offshore Software Development services are concern countries such as India &amp;amp; China are the two most dependable destinations. Both the countries are very much demanded globally for their best quality and cost effective &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.spaces.msn.com/"&gt;Offshore Development&lt;/a&gt; services. Both the countries have more than enough men power to meet the need of the globe for any type of IT or &lt;em&gt;web development services&lt;/em&gt;. If both the countries are compared India definitely has good edge over China for all possible Offshore Software Development services. The most effective factor for the success of India over China is their cost-effective development services as well as the fluency over English language.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In such overseas services now the trend seems to get changing rapidly. Companies prefer Offshore Software Development more only if it is possible to continue with more than 1 service providers. Companies are now also checking the legal and security issues before entering into any Offshore Development Contracts. Again expectation from the service providers are also higher and now in market service providers are expected to have some good certification back ground. Offshore &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/services.htm"&gt;Software Development&lt;/a&gt; service providers with &lt;em&gt;Microsoft&lt;/em&gt; Certification or &lt;em&gt;ISO Standard Certification&lt;/em&gt; are more preferred over the others. References of the company as well as their past record and credit in the market is also evaluated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The above issue indicates that current market for the Offshore Development services is changing.

The growth of the &lt;em&gt;Offshore Outsourcing Industry&lt;/em&gt; is rapidly increasing and it has been a key business process in any of the industry. As far as Software Industry is concern it is playing a major role overall overseas development business. The investment of IT companies and the whole Information Technology is increasing day by day. Most of the &lt;em&gt;IT companies&lt;/em&gt; have started to take the help of the Offshore Software Development business process in one or the other way. The offshore IT market is also accounting the major share for the overseas development business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Countries such as &lt;em&gt;India&lt;/em&gt; &amp; &lt;em&gt;China&lt;/em&gt; are the major player for offering the best quality and cost-effective IT services globally. Both the countries India &amp;amp; China are also the close competitors and playing almost equal role for offering the overseas developments services in software industry. Though, both the countries have specialties in particular field, such as India is no. 1 in software industry while China possesses the 1st position for offering hardware services to the globe. But together both of these countries have covered the whole overseas IT Industry business market and possesses the majority of the market share in their specialize industry. Some other countries such as Russia &amp;amp; Philippine have also started to prove their presence for the same but they are beginners.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Success of India for Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;If we consider the facts and figures of Asian Countries, in majority of the countries IT services and especially Offshore Software Development business is playing major part for the income of the country. In the list of the Asian Countries, India is leader and accounting the highest market share for Offshore Outsourcing services in IT industry. Economical condition of India has also been affected by the demand of the country for &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.netfirms.com/outsourcing-news/"&gt;software services&lt;/a&gt; and it has received good growth overall. Some of the key features for the success of India for Offshore Software Development are lower-labor cost, top quality development services, best infrastructure and telecommunication facility in the country, highly qualified and fluent English speaking pool of IT Professionals and many more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;It is also marked that overall market for overseas development services is increasing. Most of the market leaders also prefer to take the help of the overseas service provider to sustain their presence in the highly competitive market. All these affects can easily be seen and marked by the rapid growth of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt;. The whole IT Industry is on the boom as the whole world is becoming more techno savvy. Increased use of technology and increased cost structure has enforced the need of &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing.htm"&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt;. Companies looking to get equipped with latest IT services prefer to take the help of Offshore Software Development to gain the combination of cost effective and best quality &lt;em&gt;IT services&lt;/em&gt; from the globe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;These are some of the latest issues that have come into the current market and represent the rapid demand of the IT Services globally.

According to the &lt;em&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; industry experts of India, local market of India also has lots of scope for the software and other IT services. India also has a large internal market for the IT services and most of the Indian local IT market is vacant because till date most of the Software Development Companies in India have concentrated on the offshore market only. But now the internal and domestic market of the country is also required to be taken care off. &lt;em&gt;IT Companies&lt;/em&gt; can almost have the same scopes from the Internal Market also.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Country's export-focused software and Information Technology services companies have now started to focus outsourcing projects on their home soil as Industries such as banking and government departments’ step up spending on information technology development to reduce costs and improve their work efficiency. Local firms of India from other industries are also now focusing more to change their traditional business way and want to go global. The way of business seems to get changing in the country as now most of the industries are becoming techno savvy. Gradually the concept of latest technology and having a global presence is replacing the approach of older way of the business. This is the main reason that IT Companies from the India are now trying to give equal importance to the domestic market.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Software Development Companies in India&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;It has come out that the domestic spending on &lt;em&gt;software&lt;/em&gt; and back-office operations is also expected to rise at remarkable growth. The Software Development Companies expect the domestic market investment around the $7-7.3 billion by the year ending in March 2007. The current investment figure of the local market is around $6 billion. These facts and figure are published by the National Association of Software and Service Companies (&lt;em&gt;NASSCOM&lt;/em&gt;). This is the main reason that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://offshore-outsourcing-india.greatnow.com/offshore/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Offshore Outsourcing Companies&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt; from the house of India are now planning to focus on the local-domestic market. According to the industry experts &lt;em&gt;Software Development Companies in India&lt;/em&gt; can have more advantages in domestic market. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The study also indicates that annual growth of the domestic software market could reach 20-25 per cent in the coming years, and Software Development Companies can have good market on home soil only. Industry sectors such as banking, finance, retail, healthcare and many other are now becoming more and more advance with the technology growth and this is where the opportunities for the &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/06/metavante-joins-with-indian-offshore.html"&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; Companies to serve the country. The study also reveals that &lt;em&gt;IT Companies&lt;/em&gt; and IT Industry of India gets around 80 percent of the revenue from United States and Western Companies, but now the competition in the market is also increasing, as most of the major &lt;em&gt;Software Development Companies&lt;/em&gt; such as &lt;em&gt;IBM&lt;/em&gt; and other are expanding their business possibilities in India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;So the overall issues suggest that India itself has huge growth opportunities on home soil for the better future.

Chinese Software Development Company is also going to be a part of it. TCS declared that both the companies Tata Consulting Services and Microsoft have been selected as strategic partners for this deal by the Chinese government department. This joint venture will be commenced in Beijing. It was also declared that stated by the TCS that software park will commence its operations for this project in early 2006. TCS is one of the leading most IT Brand names of India and heavily involved in &lt;em&gt;Software Outsourcing and Development Business&lt;/em&gt; same as Microsoft. This commencement will add lots of credit to the reputation of TCS globally.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;According to the TCS this development center in China will provide Information Technology and other Outsourcing and Development Services to no. of major global market places. This list of the market place includes the big markets such as United States, Europe, China and many other parts of Asia Pacific Regions. TCS itself is one of the largest software outsourcer in India and also provides almost all other IT Development services to its clients in India and around the globe. In this joint venture, TCS India is to hold the majority of the shares, declared by the spokesman of TCS India. TCS already has huge presence in India and it is one of the most demanded Indian IT Brand names globally.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Software Outsourcing Venture&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;In this joint venture between TCS and Microsoft on the soil of China, two other Chinese companies are the part of this Software Outsourcing venture named Beijing &lt;em&gt;Zhongguancun Software Park Development Company Limited&lt;/em&gt; and Tiajnin Huayuan Software Park Construction and Development Company Limited.

All these three names are also Software Development Company and some of the best IT services providers in India. This joint venture between &lt;em&gt;TCS India&lt;/em&gt; and other Chinese Companies and Microsoft has brought India and China closer in many terms. It is also true that both the countries, India and China, have grew independently of each other for &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/software-outsourcing-is-facing-rapid.html"&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; services and both of them are doing well in the filed of overseas IT Services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;India is considered to be the best destination for Software Development Company while Chinese expertise in the field of hardware is demanded the most globally.

They are also facing threat of being crushed in the market and lots of development job work is sent to India as a part of Offshore Software Development services.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Country Russia just had the meeting to discuss the same issue and &lt;em&gt;software&lt;/em&gt; makers based in Russia had gathered here. The main topic of the discussion was how to get bigger and better to facilitate their claim on their position in the Information Technology Industry. One of the major problems the companies from Russia face is the requirement to expand in the size to be noticed by big clients and make them feel more protected regarding delegating their main and important Information Technology projects and development work to them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Russian Offshore Software Development&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;But in this wide competitive and matured market, in order to get bigger and better, Russian Offshore Software Development makers require more clients and projects. Some of the companies are solving this issue by having overseas partners as well as presence in the &lt;em&gt;offshore&lt;/em&gt; countries. In current market scenario India is having the highest market share for &lt;a href="http://softwarenews.wordpress.com/"&gt;IT Outsourcing Services&lt;/a&gt;. Along with China is also having huge market presence globally. Newer players are also coming into the market and doing well and posing challenges for &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development services&lt;/em&gt;. So bigger and better market size and market presence has been must for the Russian companies to maintain their growth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Country’s largest Software Development Company is Epam having good no. of employee strength. Company is also doing well for &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006_08_01_software-news-archive.html"&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; Services. Company also has good overseas and international market presence and clients. According to the experts and surveys total sales of the country in the previous year 2005 was around $1 billion. While if you consider India’s Information Technology Industry’s growth it is of $24 billion and that of China at $2 billion. Most of this business is by the way of &lt;em&gt;Offshore Software Development&lt;/em&gt; services. Growth of India is remarkable in the field of Information Technology.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Though, Russia has some strong favorable points with it such as sound infrastructure of highways, rail services and air travel and electricity industries. Country also possesses a highly-educated and skilled workforce with strong conceptual thinking skills for &lt;strong&gt;Offshore Software Development Services&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/russian-offshore-software-development.html' title='Russian Offshore Software Development Makers hunt for Growth'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115519423144997339'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115519423144997339'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23328933.post-115492687986346639</id><published>2006-08-07T10:24:00.000+05:30</published><updated>2006-08-07T10:31:19.880+05:30</updated><title type='text'>Software Outsourcing is facing rapid Growth</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The latest study suggests that &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/software-outsourcing-in-vietnam.html"&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is facing rapid growth globally.

The latest news suggests that some of the biggest &lt;em&gt;IT companies&lt;/em&gt; are examining the potential of Vietnam for possible Software Outsourcing services. Some research &amp;amp; development is going on in the country to judge it for overseas services. Recently a seminar was also held in Vietnam by one of the big IT brand names to provide some useful information to the IT talents in Vietnam. Though, the seminar was held for the KPO (&lt;em&gt;Knowledge Process Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt;) services but it also included the overseas services potential check of the country in the software industry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Vietnam is not that much developed country especially in the field of IT Industry. India one of the leading most players in the field of overseas IT services is also requested to provide needed guidance to Vietnam for possible KPO and BPO services. If we take a look at India, still overseas IT services is the biggest resource the country has as its possible income earner. Though the market of overseas services is becoming tougher, but India need not to worry from the emerging players such as Vietnam, Africa, Eastern Europe and many others.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Software Outsourcing Services by Vietnam&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Thought it looks like that the emergence in the filed of Software Outsourcing services by Vietnam will come as a great and remarkable move in a short while. Country Vietnam at present passing through the rapid economic growth and getting good support overall for its &lt;em&gt;IT Outsourcing venture&lt;/em&gt;. Country also seems to have good opening access towards the global Information Technology market. More development of the country in the field of human resource may equip Vietnam to become more competitive in the field of &lt;em&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/em&gt; especially against the global leader India. But it will definitely take time as country Vietnam is only in the initial stages of this &lt;a href="http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing.htm"&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; Business in IT industry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The educational growth in the field of IT sector is also rapid in Vietnam as more and more talents are coming out in the field of Software Outsourcing Industry. Technology and Infrastructure growth in the country is also on the boom and government support and encouragement to the country for possible &lt;a href="http://software-outsourcing.netfirms.com/outsourcing-news/"&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; services is remarkable. Experts also predict the bright future of Vietnam especially in the field of &lt;em&gt;Knowledge Process Outsourcing Industry&lt;/em&gt;. Though, gaining clients for possible Software Outsourcing services is not easy and requires hardcore efforts. If Vietnam will be able to make out through it then country will have bright future ahead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Growth of the country Vietnam is rapid in the field of &lt;em&gt;KPO services&lt;/em&gt; and Vietnam’s demand is increasing also at the global level. Though, rapid growth of the country in the field of &lt;strong&gt;Software Outsourcing Services&lt;/strong&gt; seems to be way ahead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/2006/08/software-outsourcing-in-vietnam.html' title='Software Outsourcing in Vietnam'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://outsourcing-software-development.150m.com/outsourcing-news/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115458062693482436'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/23328933/posts/default/115458062693482436'/><author><name>Jim</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry></feed>
