Response from: offshore outsourcing

These issues can be overcome with experience. Business leaders, managers, and executives just need to learn to make their organizations responsive to the needs of the clients--as this example states, the developer simply doesn't understand client needs--as perhaps a cultural barrier. With experience, this can change... In this example you give, perhaps the programmer would have to revise the work. This would increase the cost-- in a sense, both direct expenses and time are a cost. Perhaps you can get the same quality offshore, but it may require a longer time commitment. Now, if the developer can't deliver, even with more time, then this is a serious quality issue--and perhaps even a cost issue... since you are buying something else entirely... http://www.argontech.org/
