  Why Global Equations?

Our Offshore expertise

Even though sending IT and Business Processes offshore has becoming increasingly desirable, there are several things organizations must do to achieve offshore success. Global Equations puts the offshore consideration into an overall strategic context and assesses the organization’s operating and cost models before illustrating how much savings offshore initiatives can achieve. We help the client understand to what degree a project or process lends itself to a distributive, offshore operating model. Highly complex or collaborative efforts are harder to take offshore, though the bar is continually being raised as to what’s feasible given client’s and provider’s growing maturity and advancements in communication and technology infrastructure. We help the client assess offshore outsourcing provider’s capabilities from several perspectives like qualifications (e.g., certifications, resource maturity), communication mechanisms, and outsourcer on-site/offshore coordination capabilities. Then we provide an expected range of contract rates based on industry benchmarks and the nature of the contract.

Ultimately, offshore outsourcing can enable labor cost reductions and improve IT group capabilities and flexibility, but there needs to be a careful analysis of its potential against increased risks and management requirements. Outsourcing (offshore or otherwise) is still about the client/outsourcer relationship, not solely the location of outsourcing operations. Global Equations is well qualified to ensure that you chose the right model and align with the ideal partner in delivering this promised value.
