Top Five Strategic Reasons For Software
Outsourcing Improve Business Focuss
Software Outsourcing
allows companies to focus on broader business issues while having operational
details assumed by an outside expert. For many companies, the single most
compelling reason for
software outsourcing
is that several of the how type issues are siphoning off huge amounts of
resources and attention from management.
Gain Access To World Class Capabilities
By the very nature of their specialisaton, software outsourcing providers
bring extensive world- class resources to meeting the needs of their customers.
Partnering with an organization with world-class capabilities can offer
access to new technology, tools and techniques that the organization may
not currently possess; more structured methodologies, procedures and documentation;
and a competitive advantage through expanded skills.

Accelerate Reengineering Benefits
Software Outsourcing is often a by-product of another powerful management
tool; business process reengineering. It allows an organization to immediately
realize the anticipated benefits of reengineering by having an outside
organization one that is already reengineered to world-class standards/process
Share Risks
There are tremendous risks associated with the investments an organization
makes in information technology. When companies outsource they become
more flexible, more dynamic and better able to change themselves to meet
changing opportunities.
Redirect IS Resources To More Strategic Activities
Every organization has limits on the resources available to it. Software
Outsourcing permits the redirection of resources from non-core activities
toward activities that provide a greater return in serving the customer.

Five Tactical Reason For Software Outsourcing
One Time Applications
Applications that need to be developed or modified for a specified time
require high manpower resources at one point of time. For this the organizations
need to ramp up/ ramp down in a relatively short notice. This in-turn
is expensive. For this software outsourcing
is the best solutions. For eg. Y2k, Euro, porting from one-platform to
another etc.
Reduce Or Control Operating Cost
The single most important tactical reason for
Software Outsourcing is to reduce or control
operating costs. Access to an outside provider's lower cost structure
is one of the most compelling short-term benefits of Software Outsourcing.
In a recent outsourcing Institute survey, companies reported that on average
they saw a 9% reduction in costs through software
development outsourcing.
Make Capital Funds Available
Software
Outsourcing reduces the need to invest capital
funds in non-core business functions. This makes capital funds more available
for core areas. Outsourcing can also improve certain financial measurements
by eliminating the need to show return on equity from capital investments
in non-core areas.
Generate A Cash Infusion
Software Outsourcing can involve the transfer of assets from the
customer to the provider. Equipment, facilities, vehicles and licenses
used in current operations all have a value and are, in effect, sold to
the provider as part of the transaction, resulting in a cash infusion
Secure Resources Not Available Internally
Companies outsource because they do not have access to the required resources
within the organization. For example, if an organization is expanding
its operations, especially into a new geography, offshore
outsourcing is a viable and important alternative to building the
needed capability from the ground up.
