The offshore landscape -- Offshore economics and offshore risks -- Beginning the offshore journey -- The offshore country menu -- Offshore strategy -- Offshore legal issues -- Managing the offshore trandition -- Overcoming distance and time -- Dealing with cross-cultural issues -- Building software industries in developing nations -- Marketing of offshore services : the provider perspective -- Offshore politics.

The decision to source software development to an overseas firm (offshoring) is looked at frequently in simple economic terms - it's cheaper, and skilled labor is easier to find. In practice, however, offshoring is fraught with difficulties. As well as the considerable challenge of controlling projects at a distance, there are differences in culture, language, business methods, politics, and many other issues to contend with. Nevertheless, as many firms have discovered, the benefits of getting it right are too great to ignore. This book explains everything you need to know to put offshoring into practice, avoid the pitfalls, and develop effective working relationships. It covers a comprehensive range of the important offshoring issues: from ROI to strategy, from SLA to culture, from country comparisons to provider marketing. Written for CTOs, CIOs, consultants, and other IT executives, this book is also an excellent introduction to sourcing for business students.
