Wellington offers software consulting, development and maintenance services on an onsite-offshore business model, where its clients benefit from Wellington's technical skill pool, quality infrastructure, proven methodologies and processes and low-cost development. If your company should choose to enter an offshore engagement on your own or in cooperation with a qualified offshoring vendor, several challenges can occur. Without proper training and initial support to the key stakeholders in your organization who will be responsible for managing transistaion and transformation to offshoring and the subsequent operation itself many offshore projects fail.
Some of the typical obstacles you can meet are:
- Insecure and untrained employees that are forced into managing virtual teams.
- Inadequate process and procedures required for a smooth offshoring process.
