Reasons for outsourcing
Costs make the difference

- CHF 800 – 1200 daily vs CHF 480-640
Finding good IT talent is hard
- Will developer choose your company vs Google/FaceBook?
Managing in-house software team is not easy
- And hiring good technical project manager is hard as well
But why so many software development projects fail?
Complexity of managing team abroad

Finding right supplier is not easy
- And projects gone wrong are very expensive
Hidden costs
- 62% of offshore IT contracts cost much more than businesses expect
Quality issues
