Speculation on outsourcing and off shoring opportunities:

Outsourcing:

Speculation on outsourcing is delegating or shifting a part or all of the company's daily operation or business process to an external business provider. Our company decides to outsource services with the expectation of enjoying lower rates, better quality and that sense of acquiring a strategic edge over the competition [Topolewski, Tanya M., 1969]. Outsourcing is performing services for our company by people that are not full time employees of the company. For these very reasons, choosing the right outsourcing provider is very important.Benefit of outsourcing includes: cut down overhead costs, more efficient productivity and profitability, better quality of service at cheaper rates, maximize uptime, faster development and startup, to stay ahead of the competition, concentrate on the company's core competencies, increase reliability and security.

Off shoring:

Off shoring refers to the multi-national corporate tendency to send application software development jobs to low-wage countries as a way to reduce the bottom line. This is similar to "outsourcing" which refers generically to government contracting of work that is sent overseas. One of the major trends that present a practical solution is outsourcing services to cut down on overhead costs. If a company outsources jobs to another country, that's off-shoring. However, companies can also build stores or factories in foreign countries and hire the people who work there [Topolewski, Tanya M., 1969].
