To put it simply Software Outsourcing is having third parties do the software development on our behalf. There are various reasons why outsourcing services has become a common phenomenon. In today’s world of globalization where competition drives every company, whether a global player or smaller companies, we all have to concentrate on reducing our costs in order to compete and survive. With this in mind, specialization becomes the key focus i.e. to concentrate on those services in which we have core competencies. It’s a known fact that India is a world leader when it comes to providing software solutions. Some of the largest world corporations have set base in India to take advantage of these services, and those that are unable to have a setup here are willing to outsource their software requirements to Indian IT companies.
