It has been a dominating player in the global market and has claimed the benefits of the globalization opportunity in a big way. There are significant changes happening in the &lt;i&gt;world of outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; and the companies need to be alert and proactive towards these changes in order to align their strategies and decision-making with various opportunities existing in the current market.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;However, there are various &lt;i&gt;challenges faced by IT and BPO companies&lt;/i&gt; as well. Some of the challenges witnessed in the &lt;i&gt;year 2007&lt;/i&gt; are as under:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;ul class="style1"&gt;&lt;li&gt;Currency Dynamics &lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;2007 saw the currency fluctuation in a great way and the trend continues as rupee changes its value frequently against the US dollar. The &lt;i&gt;outsourcing companies&lt;/i&gt; bills its clients in USD and thus the IT and companies have burnt their hands in the currency fluctuation scenario. This is because the income is in USD and expenses are in INR. Adding fuel to fire, customer budget remains the same and customer hedging isn’t the possible option in most of the engagements.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;However, recently the customers have started accepting bills in INR as they have become receptive to such changes and understand that &lt;i&gt;outsourcing business&lt;/i&gt; can only be profitable if the benefit is passed on to the outsourcer.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The IT and BPO companies are putting their efforts to improve productivity, increase value as they face competition from emerging outsourcing destinations such as Phillipines, China. etc. Moreover, Yuan hasn’t appreciated to the extent Rupee has and Chinese Govmt is supporting outsourcing industry in a big way. The Rupee appreciation is not owing to a India’s actions but a by-product of globalization.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;India is expecting the Rupee to increase further and at this stage, the only option for India is to give it a tough fight.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Extension of the Tax Holiday&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;i&gt;Indian IT and BPO&lt;/i&gt; companies fret as the expiration of income tax holiday period nears 2009. The &lt;i&gt;Software Development&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;India&lt;/i&gt; industry argues that Indian Government must extend the STPI scheme as the Indian IT and BPO companies compete with the Chinese and Philippine companies, enjoying a 10-year tax holidays. Thus, the future of profitability of Software Development, &lt;i&gt;India companies&lt;/i&gt; depends on the extension of tax holiday.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Thus continuously exploring new avenues, including the global delivery network can help the &lt;i&gt;outsourcing industry&lt;/i&gt; to face the challenges&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The Sub prime crisis in the US&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sub-prime crisis has affected the &lt;b&gt;Indian Software Development outsourcing&lt;/b&gt; and BPO industry to a very great extent. It is a blessing in disguise that outsourcing would be the only option in the scenario of reducing profits and declining volumes but at the same time, the cash flow remains low as more companies delay their fulfillment of their IT requirements. However, analysts predict that the US economy shall mark a decent growth as the year progresses. This growth will continue to provide opportunity for offshoring of various levels of services to mostly offshoring nations.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Talent and Attrition–Cost of Retention have increased&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;2007 saw a trend of high attrition, particularly in the middle and senior management level leading to risk of unstability and unavailiability of senior resources for handling scability and multi-cultural integration of operations. Indian senior manager turn their heads towards India as the industry matures and brand India makes its mark. &lt;i&gt;IT and BPO companies&lt;/i&gt; continue to improve upon people management practices and continue recruitment to reduce sourcing costs। Some companies have also tied-up with &lt;a href="http://www.gujaratuniversity.org.in/web/index.asp"&gt;Universities&lt;/a&gt;, proving training on campus and thus ensuring low costs and manpower retention.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;Thus, the year 2008 has its own challenges and opportunities and its time for the &lt;i&gt;Indian outsourcing industry&lt;/i&gt;(&lt;i&gt;Software Development and BPO&lt;/i&gt;) to prepare well and give it its best shot.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-177822555294070218?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2008/02/challenges-faced-by-software.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-7313722925144669052</guid><pubDate>Tue, 12 Feb 2008 06:41:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T22:11:32.729-08:00</atom:updated><title>Software Development India</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;The &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-outsourcing-aboutus/software-outsourcing-company.asp"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Software Development India&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; – &lt;i&gt;IT sector&lt;/i&gt; is on track with its growth agenda, Despite an appreciating rupee and slowdown worries in the US. The &lt;i&gt;Indian software&lt;/i&gt; and services exports are expected to touch the $40 billion mark in Financial Year 2008 ($31.3 billion in Financial Year 2007), contributing nearly 64 per cent to the overall revenue aggregate (Including software exports, domestic and BPO segments).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to IT trade body &lt;a href="http://www.nasscom.in/Nasscom/templates/NormalPage.aspx?id=53454"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Nasscom’s strategic Review 2008&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, the Indian software and services exports are expected to touch the $40 billion mark in FY08 ($31.3 billion in FY07), contributing nearly 64 per cent to the overall revenue aggregate (including &lt;i&gt;software exports&lt;/i&gt;, domestic and BPO segments).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In July 2007, Nasscom had forecast the industry will grow 24-27 per cent in the current financial year and the revenue was seen at $50 billion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Financial Year 2008 the domestic market is expected to touch $23 billion compared with $16.2 billion in Financial Year 2007. This means that the &lt;b&gt;Indian IT industry&lt;/b&gt; can exceed its aspired target of $60 billion by 2010 in software and services exports and $73 -75 billion in overall &lt;i&gt;software and&lt;br /&gt;services&lt;/i&gt; revenue by 2010.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;The review reveals that direct employment is expected to reach nearly two million – an increase of about 375,000 professionals over Financial Year 2007.

One of the top 5 upcoming and favorite destinations for &lt;b&gt;IT outsourcing&lt;/b&gt; and &lt;b&gt;business process outsourcing&lt;/b&gt;। Smaller cities such as Noida are gaining attention as outsourcing costs continue to rise in established centers such as Bangalore. There are many reasons supporting the shift of software and bpo companies from metro cities to mega and small cities. Before discussing the same, let us have a brief look at the growth of the IT and BPO industry.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;Few facts questioning prediction of a slowdown in growth of IT and business process outsourcing (BPO) industries:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul class="style1"&gt;&lt;li&gt;Exports expected to reach $10.5 billion to $11.0 billion this year- &lt;i&gt;The National Association of Software and Service Companies (&lt;a href="http://nasscom.in/"&gt;NASSCOM&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sector employment up by 138, 000 from previous year.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Fiscal year 2006-06(ending March) witnesses exports of $8.4 billion, up 35% from the previous year.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;This growth in the &lt;i&gt;software outsourcing India&lt;/i&gt; industry has made the real estate and labor costs soar and the competition for skilled labor has resulted in attrition levels as high as 30% an year(in Asia), says NASSCOMM. The Software outsourcing India industry also faces tremendous competition from South Asian and Latin American countries and adding fuel to fire, the appreciating rupee has made exports less impressive.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify" class="style1"&gt;Thus, the IT and BPO companies are starting to set up operations in Tier II cities such as Noida, Mangalore, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad, Pune, Indore, etc which are much smaller in size and can provide the right environment for &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/offshore-development-center.asp"&gt;Offshore Development Cerntre&lt;/a&gt;. Major companies such as &lt;i&gt;TCS&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Infosys&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Satyam&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Mphasis&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Wipro&lt;/i&gt;, etc have set up their centers in Tier II cities such as Trivandrum, Vishakapatnam, etc. We can’t deny the fact that Tier I cities will remain to be established centers due to developed cities, infrastructure, etc. However, smaller cities are attracting bigger companies to set up their operations there due to lower cost(untapped real estate market, local human resource consisting of college students, etc) and better support factors. So the current strategy is to set up operations in multiple cities to reap the benefits of Tier I cities(established markets, availability of qualitative resources, developed supporting industries, etc) as well as Tier II cities(cheap labour, low attrition rate, government support and incentives). Thus we can say that muti-located companies is the new mantra for &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing industry&lt;/i&gt; in India. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-4299165253784266527?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2008/02/indian-cities-competing-for-software.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-516576941111598826</guid><pubDate>Tue, 05 Feb 2008 02:28:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T22:25:16.018-08:00</atom:updated><title>Offshore Software Development with Different Teams</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;Couple of years back or we can say in early nineties it was something that &lt;i&gt;software development&lt;/i&gt; can be done with a Software development Company solely at one place. Now it is changed and different teams are working from different places on entire projects and never meet face-to-face. The fact that is still challenging is that it hasn't reduced the risk and complexity involved in successful project delivery in spite of reducing the frequent-flyer balance of today's developers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;Global development and delivery (GDD) is most fascinating short tem aspect that is consistently keeping management to think of the same. Companies in software development using GDD as a competitive variable; most IT organizations know what benefits to expect from GDD. They usually are less sure about how to achieve them. Still, that hasn't affected the speed of GDD adoption. Frequently, &lt;i&gt;software development&lt;/i&gt; demands force IT organizations to take on GDD before they can establish strategies and platforms for success.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;As the scope and scale of GDD efforts increase, so does the occurrence of failure. This pattern continues until frustration results in &lt;i&gt;software development organizations&lt;/i&gt; concluding that GDD is more trouble than it's worth. Software development has always been a team sport geographical &amp;amp; organizational separations of project Software development Company increases the complexity involved in achieving successful outcomes. Yet global flexibility is the core foundation for achieving advantages in cost, time, and quality. To be successful in GDD, you must protect the Software development Company aspect of &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/application-development-outsourcing.asp"&gt;application development outsourcing&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;Well structured software development process framework gives GDD projects with Software development Company cohesion and direction without sacrificing the flexibility necessary for agile development. This help teams to adopt a single, "common" process for all projects and provides teams with the ability to adopt methods and best practices that are visible, practical, and governed. The platform ties global teams together and reduces the risk of failure as global development initiatives become more complex. With a global process framework, you can easily codify lessons learned and achieve continuous global process improvement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For example, in defining and implementing a &lt;b&gt;software development project&lt;/b&gt; specification, there is a tendency to believe that the more detailed and precise the specification is, the better the expected results from offshore software Development Company. However, in practice, wasting collaboration and communication time between distributed teams on the clarification of unnecessary implementation specifics and style contribute little to meeting the requirements of the end product. Implementation style is difficult to direct across GDD teams. Global methods and process should focus energy on managing and communicating the architecture and requirements. It shouldn't waste time defining the step-by-step directions for how distributed Software development Company members should do their jobs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-516576941111598826?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2008/02/offshore-software-development-with.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-4270984265734486762</guid><pubDate>Sat, 26 May 2007 06:02:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T22:30:57.407-08:00</atom:updated><title>Indian IT Outsourcing</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Software Outsourcing’s vigorous growth today in the export and domestic market is mainly because of the rich availability of talent in India, high levels of security and standards maintained for data protection. More over a value oriented work environment and the tax concessions benefits by STPI. To take the advantage of talent pool and favorable government policies many MNCs and end-user organizations have set up centers in India. By continuing the favorable and facilitative role government has played till now, there is still high potential to attract more captives and third-party companies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;India still has a long way to go to tap into the global market share in the &lt;i&gt;IT outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; and BPO space. Many other countries are replicating the Indian model and they can be a threat if there are any uncertainties around India’s continued growth and commitment in this sector.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to make sure that employable talent is available continually in the future, the security measures are further strengthened and the STPI tax holiday is extended to remain price competitive and attract more captives and companies to India to sustain our growth. If these matters are not looked upon the growth of &lt;i&gt;IT outsourcing industry&lt;/i&gt; could slow down and could trigger opportunities for other competing countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://nasscom.in/"&gt;NASSCOM&lt;/a&gt; has initiated the concept of “Finishing Schools” – an ecosystem that takes graduates from Academic Institutions and prepares them for the industry measure. Much higher Government investment in education, changes in education system, better compensation and research grants are required to boost up the industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IT outsourcing industry in India has taken key initiatives like: The industry has been highly responsible in its &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-outsourcing-aboutus/software-outsourcing-tatva.asp"&gt;compliance and transparency&lt;/a&gt;. For employees the corporate is looking forward to take care socially and environmentally.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-4270984265734486762?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/05/indian-it-outsourcing.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-5521284319085084142</guid><pubDate>Sat, 05 May 2007 09:42:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T22:37:50.081-08:00</atom:updated><title>Software Outsourcing to India</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Software Outsourcing to India has become one of the rapid sources of business in the current trend of IT Services. In the arena of IT Industry there is a big list of &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing Company&lt;/i&gt; that is emerging with a specialization only in some particular programming services or back office services. India is the dominant player for such overseas services in IT Industry. India has lots of advantages for overseas IT services compared to other outsourcing destinations. Country India also possesses a huge presence of &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-outsourcing-aboutus/software-outsourcing-company.asp"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing Company&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to provide low cost and good quality IT services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now a day the demand of the customer changes very rapidly. In this rapidly changing scenario it is really difficult to cope up with the customers by onsite resources. Again the cost is also one of the most important factors at the time of dealing with the local developer. In IT Industry India and China are the only destinations that have very low pricing policy with good quality output. Lower cost, better quality, timely services, no infrastructure required, availability of men power as and when require and better management are some of the advantages of sending the work to the overseas locations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As far as India is concerned, it has lots of other advantages apart from above for better &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing Services&lt;/i&gt;. Along with the cost, fluency on English language is also the most important advantage that India has over other outsourcing countries. In the field of software services&lt;i&gt; India&lt;/i&gt; has more than enough technical and talented men power to meet the changing need of the globe. There are lots of &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing companies&lt;/i&gt; in the country along with the domestic as well as International Brand Names. Some of the services that India provides are database design, custom web and software programming, and internet/intranet development, back-end and data entry work, call center services, client-server &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/application-development-outsourcing.asp"&gt;&lt;i&gt;application development&lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;outsourcing&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and many more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In recent years India has also achieved so many milestones in the filed of Software Outsourcing. Rapid growth is also noticed in Indian Revenue due to the highly successful &lt;i&gt;IT overseas business&lt;/i&gt;. Many of the international brand names are establishing their presence in India to take the advantage of its expertise in the field of Information Technology. Support from the side of India Government is also playing key role in the success of the country.

Then it’s but obvious, why one should keep non-core functions to be done in-house? Actually the concern is that, how one creates an international company to operate tricky cultural and across multiple time zones with linguistic divides. Few owners of rapidly growing companies have the expertise and time for finding, managing contractors in India &amp;amp; Philippines. If that is not done right, Software outsourcing can turn on any time and one can do offshore outsourcing of outsource work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The offshore outsourcing trend has gathered steam into a cottage industry of consultants and brokers so there is no reason that tiny companies can not get benefited of this global industry and economy just like other big organizations. If the right contractors are there then these intermediaries can help, ensuring good fit, managing the relationship and handling all the problems that pop up repeatedly. These firms are very important especially for growing organization that might not afford those &lt;i&gt;offshore outsourcing projects&lt;/i&gt; to be failed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sending the work to offshore countries would be lots-lots cheaper, but there is no idea for the initial step for anybody. The inside scoop is whether call centers, transcription service center, or programming shop is doing better business or worst. These companies are also developing a web-based software program as passport, which functions as an information dashboard for clients. &lt;i&gt;American companies&lt;/i&gt; with few click of mouse can track the volume of &lt;i&gt;customer service&lt;/i&gt; that checks or calls for the status of a software project work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/offshore-development-center.asp"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Offshore Development Centre&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; charges customers with an up-front consulting fee of about eight thousand American dollars and also takes twenty five percentage premiums as an advance upfront cost. Companies are also creating customized system for computer, so it would finish transcripts arrive as PDF file accomplished by &lt;i&gt;offshore outsourcing&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing industry&lt;/i&gt; some relatively small organizations are having near about ten clients, but the company’s owner has very big plans with broad vision. Adding to network of &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing vendors&lt;/i&gt; the numbers grows more than 350 and is also broadening the geographic scope by tapping into small companies in the Philippines &amp;amp; Costa Rica. Even with starting work with &lt;i&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; in exotic locales; the dynamics of Outsourcing is the same no matter which country is in.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-4629132117549956849?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/04/outsourcing-work-in-offshore-countries.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-7965546200208175251</guid><pubDate>Mon, 02 Apr 2007 08:07:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T23:13:51.828-08:00</atom:updated><title>Offshore Software Outsourcing Trend in 2007</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;According to IT Industry experts, &lt;i&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; Trend will have better market place in the year 2007. We all know that IT Outsourcing is on the boom since last five to seven years and rapidly the demand of overseas services is also increasing. Sending the development work to the overseas location, especially in the software industry, has become pretty common and routine procedure for many of the companies. Most of the companies now a day prefer outsourcing to reduce the in-house development burden. It is also fact that outsourcing the non-core activities helps the companies to concentrate more on their key functionality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we consider the scenario before almost a decade, sending the work to the overseas location was avoided. Most of the companies preferred to perform all the work in-house only in spite of higher cost. But with the development of advance technology, outsourcing has become the ideal business process. Again in the time period of last five years, the process of outsourcing is highly booming. Countries like India &amp;amp; China are the most preferable destinations for overseas IT services. In the financial year of 2006 both the countries have faced tremendous growth and higher financial growth is also expected in the year 2007.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The market of Offshore Software Outsourcing is expanding rapidly and the main reason is the customers are now looking for the &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/web-development-services.asp"&gt;web development services&lt;/a&gt; and products with lower cost and higher software outsourcing quality. Today’s market is customer’s market and customer is the king. To sustain the place in the market and to meet the demand of the current market for lower cost and higher quality services, companies have only one option and that is IT Outsourcing. According to the experts, in the financial year 2007 Outsourcing industry is expected to have overseas income almost two times compared to the previous year. More and more development work is sent to India and China from the countries like US, UK &amp;amp; Australia. It is also marked that India has much higher market share compared to China for IT Offshoring services.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Increased Offshore Software Outsourcing Services&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Financial growth of India was also very high in the year 2006 due to increased Offshore Software Outsourcing services. IT has played a major role in the growth of the country India in the recent years as more and more foreign economy is coming into the country as a part of IT Outsourcing. India has highly talented men power with it. Another main reason for the success of the country in the filed of outsourcing is the fluency over the English language. Indians are very fluent in English and this is the most important advantage that India has edge over China.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Overall market survey also suggests that in the coming financial year of 2007, &lt;i&gt;IT Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; will have brighter future. From the current market scenario we can firmly say that Offshore Software Outsourcing is the best solution to meet today’s market demand for the combination of Lower Development Cost and Higher &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-outsourcing/software-outsourcing-quality.asp"&gt;Software Outsourcing Quality&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-7965546200208175251?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/04/offshore-software-outsourcing-trend-in.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-3010761954129779558</guid><pubDate>Mon, 26 Mar 2007 11:23:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-09T00:01:36.244-08:00</atom:updated><title>Indian Software Development service provider</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Companies are currently geared up for embedded system conference with &lt;i&gt;Indian Software Development service&lt;/i&gt; provider’s move. There are number of aggressive Electronic System Level designer organizations are planning to expand into the Indian Software Development market within real platforms that let Information Technology Outsourcing designer, engineers, and architects get going on &lt;i&gt;Software Development&lt;/i&gt; before the silicon is ready.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using system-c the family of virtual platform services provides hardware designs for creating the virtual platforms by Indian &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/software-development-services.asp" target="_blank"&gt;Software Development services&lt;/a&gt;, so it can package into environment of run time, which provides interfaces by tools of Software Development. Claiming of validation support and development, the virtual platforms of entire device stack up within the software applications levels. The panorama environment is contrast and looking for more and more software architects at the time to make high level decisions. With such platforms that run fast for Indian Software Development industry does not require to wait for any hardware or prototype emulator while manufacturing the chip.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of these companies are identical with similar ideas for using virtual platforms for &lt;i&gt;Outsourcing Development&lt;/i&gt; work that provide model of software and hardware system. Many more firms are also moving especially with great competition by highly competitive areas, spoken by senior analyst at Development Corporation. There is significant values being able to test and debug earlier with the process of design but there is always trade-off between the necessary efforts at the simulation enabling time, and the reduction of risk for software development projects.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With change of embedded software methodology and design to move ahead from separating the software and hardware development outsourcing, then embedded software development world would probably converging more in future time. The current estimation for embedded software development professionals is half million. The developing tools, which really allows in targeted products of hardware before the real introduction of Indian Software Development work. At the company of Co-Ware, it is decided to become bridge between the EDA Software and Hardware world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;They are going to expand the &lt;i&gt;Software Development India&lt;/i&gt; market by focusing on the architect of hardware and focusing on software architects as well with the true systems of architects, which response for both systems simultaneously.

Despite the great impact by Offshore Outsourcing, the wide-range research by US Information Technology industry has found these consequences. The annual job loss rate in &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; is around two to three percentage of the overall IT professional in USA.

They have good backup reports on daily analysis of the &lt;i&gt;Software Organization&lt;/i&gt;. They provide as the final frontier for many organizations which operate from the bottom line of market. Such resources be-it-be magazines or e-books, e-software, website servers like of Google, the dealer has mega opportunity to expand his business and recognize the risen of challenges in both &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Software Developments&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The coming decade will be surviving only on the accountability of communication and market. This has really helped in vanishing of the technological insecurities for the dealers and Outsourcers, because the gab is been refilled by the resourceful information provided by these magazines. Such a magazine named Supply Management has been recently introduced in the world segment of Technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Software Outsourcing deal more authoritatively&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hype talk of the online auctions and sales are the major talks of today. The auctions have shown flexibility in their actions which may be favorable to suite the Software Industry genders. Offshore Outsourcing though requires a complete detailed packages, sophistication is given higher importance in terms of quantity and quality. The magazines usually talk about in and all affairs related to &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt;. The dealers have space to deal more authoritatively and powerfully, and the negotiation price fixed between the companies help in increasing profit for the Company. Some of the e-books also provide the advertisements on partnership with the firm to support the &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-outsourcing-aboutus/software-outsourcing-company.asp"&gt;Software Development Company&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus the readers are familiar with the Offshore Outsourcing world and are able to transact good and reliable resources to the Outsourcing Company. The projects of the magazine may also include the ideas behind entire establishment of the Company with the minimum need of the infrastructure required in the &lt;i&gt;Software Company&lt;/i&gt;. The atmosphere should be favorable for any software engineer and programmer to develop projects in a clean and healthy scenario. This work is usually taken care by the Human Resource Department, who takes care of the employees and helps them train with the soft-skills they require.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing Company&lt;/i&gt; thus need not go through the series of threats, when it has all available information and resources with it.

Most of the debates are regarding the information that Offshore Software Development is cheaper in terms of cost-deduction involved, funding access to blue-chip, loss of job opportunities and many more. If we consider the whole market scenario then we can see that competition is on the pick especially in IT Industry. Countries like India and China are becoming highly demanded for their cost effective &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/software-development-services.asp"&gt;Software Development Services&lt;/a&gt;. Greater amount of IT development work is being shifted to overseas locations, simply to reduce the cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the IT companies are now exploring the option of overseas service provider exclusively. It gives lots of freedom to the companies in terms of time, cost and from management perspective also. It reduces the management burden from the companies at large extent. Companies can easily send non-core services to overseas locations and concentrate more on the core business objectives. Along with that sending work to the offshore location always provides cost cutting and better quality output option. But to make all these happen in the desired way, it is also true that one should have a good and experienced management team.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Above are some of the positive sides of &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt;, but along with that it also have lots of issues attached with it that requires keen monitoring. The same fruitful deal of &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/application-development-outsourcing.asp"&gt;Application Development Outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; can lead to undesired loss, if company misses out to handle the deal properly. Constant monitoring along with the team of experts is highly demanded to make the successful deal. Lots of security aspects are also there that should be taken under consideration at the time of taking crucial decision of such overseas dealings. Companies should also make it sure that they could allocate the best resources to achieve the desired outcome. Companies involved with such overseas services must also update their resources and information to make sure that everything is going as planned.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another reason for the increased demand of overseas services is to meet the ongoing client requirement. Increased demand, especially in the field of software and services, has forced the companies to explore more options to meet the market requirements. In current market, IT is one of the most booming sectors and with rising demand of low cost and high quality services, most of the companies prefer to take the help of &lt;i&gt;Software Outsourcing services&lt;/i&gt;. It also helps companies to maintain their market position.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Above are some of the issues attached with the overseas development services. Increased market demand of lower cost and higher quality development work has made the huge impact on the market of Software Outsourcing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-4925760003406467659?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/03/software-outsourcing-issue.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-4398823389138047648</guid><pubDate>Thu, 22 Feb 2007 09:24:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-09T01:10:02.792-08:00</atom:updated><title>Offshore Software Outsourcing and Service Providers</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Role of overseas &lt;i&gt;IT service providers&lt;/i&gt; is expanding day by day in the filed of outsourcing&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/web-development-services.asp"&gt;&lt;i&gt;web development services&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; as the demand of such services is increasing rapidly. But along with that, companies are also trying to get development work done from more than one service providers to avoid some of the risks of IT Outsourcing. In this way of distribution of the work among the different service providers, companies can put themselves at some safe places. It is also noticed that trend of distribution of work is prevailing more and more in the market and it is also appealing more to the clients. According to the clients, amount of risk engaged with single service provide is very high as he has to deal with the overseas service provider.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In distributing the work among the different service providers Companies always find good scope to move ahead with more than one Offshore Software Development service providers. Amount of risk reduces because the work gets distributed in such option and they don’t have to rely upon a single service provider. It also helps in avoiding the frauds as well as monopoly of a single company in the market. Due to high competition in the market, clients also get competitive price with better quality outcome. Price Negotiation possibilities are also higher in such types of deals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Initially business of &lt;i&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; was considered bit risky, as if service provider fails to deliver the output the client is useless. And this is the main reason that companies now prefer to deal with more then one vendors. IT Outsourcing has been a very wide concept now a days as it is very cost effective, provides high quality output and help in getting work done with no real efforts. But at the same time risk is also involved in this business. Countries like &lt;i&gt;China&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;India&lt;/i&gt; are very famous and demanded for this type of overseas development work and both are also considered as the most dependable spots.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As far as Offshore Software Outsourcing process is concern India is in front of China. Both the countries are &lt;i&gt;IT Giants&lt;/i&gt; and have lots of potential for proper IT Outsourcing. Both the countries have almost equal capabilities but in for some aspects India has upper hand though. Fluency over the English language is the most useful benefit that India has over China.

Definition of this business is “Local company moves the business of &lt;i&gt;software development services&lt;/i&gt; to an overseas country”. While the cost of the development services at local level is very high, in an overseas country it’s available at low cost with high quality. Due to this great benefit of Outsourcing, many countries are establishing themselves in this business. Due to profitability of the outsourcing business many small countries such as Japan, Philippines are getting the top position in economic well-being in the world. Some countries are also becoming the “Center of the attraction” of the globe because of the &lt;i&gt;IT Business&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;India is one of these countries and is becoming a hot destination for the offshore software outsourcing. India will continue to support Information Technology, taking the most advantage from the business of &lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/application-development-outsourcing.asp"&gt;application development outsourcing&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/i&gt;services. Thus, IT business plays a major role in uplifting the economy of India. This boom in the software industries has been generated due to a number of factors such as low cost of development services, reduction in the price of international calls, large number of skilled &lt;i&gt;IT engineers&lt;/i&gt; produced by the Indian universities, evolution of broadband and many internet service providers entering the market such as Airtel, Reliance and Iquara. The Indian government company BSNL also provides the internet service at a very low cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The IT business is also beneficial to the &lt;i&gt;U.K&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;U.S.A&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Russia&lt;/i&gt; and many other countries. It permits to stay competitive for good deal at no investment in set-up. At the universal level, IT service is a boon for the companies to stay competitive. Overseas companies from U.K have been investing giant amount in research and development to understand the methodologies which are selected by different vendors. Many companies are giving training to various potential people and then they are hiring them with good salary scale, incentives and keeping them in company payrolls. They are also giving these potential people a chance to improve their abilities. Some multinational companies are hiring many IT graduates so they don’t require any training to communicate with the overseas clients about the &lt;i&gt;Information Technology&lt;/i&gt; data. Thus, the client does not have any hassles in task completion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most important thing in Offshore Software Outsourcing is to build strong relationship with the outsourcing staff and make them a part of the team so they can better understand the business and achieve success in project development services. Software development service should be on free deal agreement. This factor is helpful in exploring the possibility for collaboration of clients and&amp;nbsp; the &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/indian-outsourcing-partner/indian_outsourcing_partner.asp"&gt;Indian outsourcing partner&lt;/a&gt;. This very factor would be beneficial for future partnership between two nations and it will affect the ultimate economic benefit directly or indirectly. Thus, offshore software outsourcing is increasing the economic status of India as well as profitability of the outsourcing countries. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-117134635118038418?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/02/economic-benefits-of-offshore-software.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-117082643525291110</guid><pubDate>Wed, 07 Feb 2007 05:31:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-09T01:43:09.944-08:00</atom:updated><title>Software Outsourcing</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The World Wide Web is used for International business and now a days Internet became an integral part when one thinks of e-business.

Due to high demand of Indian software, BPO services, Call center the industry faced a shortage of employees that is particularly sensitive in an industry of BPO &amp;amp; call center.

Now a day world is going at rocket speed in the business of &lt;i&gt;Offshore Software Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt;. Many years ago IT services were available only in Western countries but now its accessible in India, Africa, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and also in other overseas countries. Western Countries like U.K., U.S., and Australia are expensive for services of Information Technology Development, while India is providing low cost services. So Custom Software Development to India trend has become more popular globally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The success of &lt;i&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/i&gt; is based on the main word “Customer Satisfaction”. Vendors and Customers relationship builds on base of faith, understanding and mutual respect. After getting this relationship everybody can become a successful businessman of Offshore Software Outsourcing. Western countries are crazy for the business of Software Technology. Recent trend of Custom Software Development predicts that demand of overseas &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/web-development-services.asp"&gt;web development services&lt;/a&gt; will continue also in future time. Western vendors prefer high quality, on-time delivery, accuracy and low cost of services. So trend is going on high and high at world level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many companies are expanding the IT outsourcing at world level like &lt;i&gt;IBM&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;TCS&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Accenture&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Intel&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Apple&lt;/i&gt; etc. This business is increasing rapidly in some of the countries like Russia, China, Philippines and India. In the past time, cost of &lt;i&gt;IT development&lt;/i&gt; was very high but due to increase in overseas development services it’s available at very low cost with better quality now a day. India is providing low cost development services with latest technology, on-time delivery, accuracy and quality work. Overseas IT business is becoming so much helpful for the business world. Through the IT business we can learn more technology, knowledge of different things, knowledge of different countries, languages, project management etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seven years ago, Custom Software Development considered as a risky business in the IT industry. But now the situation is different, it is considered as a low cost and the most successful solution in the business of IT world. In the year of March 2006, Offshore Software Outsourcing’s revenue increased almost 50 to 55 percent compared to the fiscal year 2005. This is the main reason on increasing growth of overseas software business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can say “The Custom Software Development business is becoming the business of art not of engineering”. Generally Offshore Software Outsourcing defined as a “key player” of the IT business world. Expanding the techno trend, “Custom Software Development is going on the most convenient way of the IT business”. Now whole universal trend is going at the way of hiring &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/offshore-development-center.asp"&gt;offshore development center&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-116904169299929744?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/01/biggest-trend-of-custom-software.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-116843501911024295</guid><pubDate>Wed, 10 Jan 2007 13:14:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T04:34:43.751-08:00</atom:updated><title>Offshore Outsourcing as an Export Business</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The nation's export business for &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing services&lt;/i&gt; are expected to grow in between 30 to 32 percent in the forthcoming year. While counting in monetary term software outsourcing business grew by 12 billion dollars, and exports of BPO, call center, and related services grew by 5.2 billion dollar that accounted in &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing Indian export&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly lots of Indian organizations are adopting the model followed by their competitor in USA and Europe for Offshore Outsourcing and their non-core functions across areas of banking, manufacturing, finance and insurance sectors. The domestic market is set for growth as commensurate with the growth projections that opposed to 4.8 billion dollars previous year and its projected to touch 7 billion dollars during this year, will reach 20 billion dollar by year 2010. In time of future its expected that a mere cost arbitrage will not help &amp;amp; innovation would cut across business models. Look at the scenario where cost is the only competitive advantage in &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing Industry&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The area such as data management and analysis which involves cross-functional disciplines and opens up new segments, by expecting such deals to grow, in the case of high-end offshore outsourcing; there is need for operational excellence. For instance, taking benefits of Indian &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing firms&lt;/i&gt; by outsourcer and saving about fifty percent but it might expected to come down by at least ten percent in next few years. The areas that have been overlooked relate to the implications that innovation could bring for cost savings. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The two sectors, &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/application-development-outsourcing.asp"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Software Development&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and Offshore Outsourcing for &lt;i&gt;Indian economy&lt;/i&gt; will earn more than 60 billion dollars in exports by end of 2010. The projected growth will provide directly employment to 2.3 million people, approximately. And it will provide indirect employment to another 6.5 million employees by year 2010. Increase from 3 % of gross domestic product to about 7 % will occur due to Offshore Outsourcing process.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Indian Offshore Outsourcing business is going to increase by 10 times. The growth will come with Indian organizations continuing to maintain their fourty-six % share in international BPO market and 65 % share of the &lt;i&gt;IT Outsourcing market&lt;/i&gt; through the year 2010. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/12549812-116843501911024295?l=www.tatvasoft.com%2Foutsourcing%2Fsoftware-outsourcing.html' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.tatvasoft.com/outsourcing/2007/01/offshore-outsourcing-as-export.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Jim)</author></item><item><guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12549812.post-116739787240722944</guid><pubDate>Fri, 29 Dec 2006 13:04:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2010-02-08T04:36:16.763-08:00</atom:updated><title>History of Offshore Software Outsourcing</title><description>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The history of offshore &lt;i&gt;software outsourcing India&lt;/i&gt; is one of the phenomenal growths in a very short duration.

Both the countries are becoming highly demanded for the software and other Information Technology services globally. The whole world is becoming techno savvy rapidly and in that case keeping the development cost down as well as competitive with the best quality outcomes is the most important factor. &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; is playing key role in keeping the development cost lower and especially when it is done to &lt;i&gt;India&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;China&lt;/i&gt; the cost goes down almost 3-4 times compared to Australia, United State &amp;amp; United Kingdom. Both these countries are providing highly cost effective and high quality &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/software-development-services/application-outsourcing.asp" target="_blank"&gt;Custom Software Development services&lt;/a&gt; and have boosted up the concept of overseas business.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Especially in India, overseas companies find better solution as there are well English speaking talents.

It was also recently declared by the higher authority that government is planning to support high-tech manufacturers by spending in organizations and proposing “viability gap funding”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both the countries have lots of similar opportunities that help them to maintain their position in the current competitive market. If we compare the overall market for &lt;a href="http://www.tatvasoft.com/offshore-outsourcing-services/offshore-outsourcing-solutions.asp" target="_blank"&gt;Custom Software Development services&lt;/a&gt;, India comes on the top position while China grabs the second spot. The main difference between these two countries is the command over the English language as well as the level of talents required for the perfect &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt;. In both these fields India has big edge over China and that leads them to stay on the top of the list of the service providers globally. India’s global edge for the Custom Software Development is thankful to the huge presence of Local as well as some Multinational Information Technology companies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Bangalore, India there are more then 1500 &lt;i&gt;IT companies&lt;/i&gt; that serve the globe and day by day that no. is also increasing. This leads to higher Custom Software Development to India compared to China. Almost all the globally known IT brand names have their remarkable presence in India as a part of their &lt;i&gt;Offshore Outsourcing&lt;/i&gt; policy and these companies are also getting remarkable profits due to same. China also possesses the good presence of the overseas as well as the local companies for the same. The concept of the &lt;i&gt;Custom Software Development&lt;/i&gt; has changed the way of the development work in the software industry as more and more companies are now heading towards the customization.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Custom Software Development is not a new concept though, but increasing demand of the customization has given additional boost to the Information Technology industry.

Gradually the freelance practices are increasing in the countries like India and China.

Also it is the most technical job that requires focused attention to every task that is performed. Such overseas development services especially in IT sector offers much flexibility.
