Offshoring

In the recent years companies have been increasingly acquiring IT specialists for their projects fromother countries, which has resulted in boundaries being noticeably pushed: nowadays, IT specialists are not only outsourced from nearby countries (nearshoring), but also from more remote places, located on other continents (offshoring). While the latter model could be more challenging, offshoring allows companies to get the very best specialists to fit the business needs and goals. From the business perspective, it allows to decrease employment costs and provides a wider selection of qualified specialists.

Offshoring usually translates into transferring business processes to another remote country, or outsorcing IT specialists from them. This is a solution usually applied by firms located in more developed countries. Such a practice is particularly popular in, among others, the US, Great Britain, or Japan. Thanks to the possibility of remote work, it is easy for businesses to work with specialists hired for a given project online. Even if it is necessary for them to temporarily relocate, the value of resources saved thanks to outsourcing is still greater than their travel costs. If you work with a professional outsourcing company, the risk related to misguided personnel decisions will be minimized.
