Location and Offshoring Advice
Despite the promise of offshoring, few organisations have sufficient internal capability or expertise to make an informed decision about selecting an offshore location or provider, or the implications of sourcing globally.
Challenges of Offshoring
- How to identify the right location in terms of expense, depth of available skills pool, stability, quality of infrastructure and more
- How to manage security and compliance issues
- How to address reputational dimensions and communication
- How to manage organisational change - transition and global teamwork
- How to ensure maximum stability of specialist skills and knowledge in a fast moving market in the face of high attrition rates, emerging cities and new international regulations
