Are you ignoring global outsourcing of software development? Are you concerned about the challenges of finding an offshore partner you can trust and that stays in touch with you?

You are not alone !!

Modern communication and transportation has made the world a small place. It is hard to ignore the impact that events and ideas from other parts of the world have on our day-to-day existence.  And it’s hard to ignore the intelligence and expertise of professional software developers in other parts of the world. Much has been written about our
“flat world” and the impact of globalization.

Yet most of the books and websites out there only cover all kinds of outsourcing and at a very high level. You can learn how to outsource your call center, accounting, tax preparation and medical transcription.  Interesting, but not very helpful if you need to create a Java web application or a .NET desktop application ASAP!

I wrote Software without Borders and created this website to help you start outsourcing your software development quickly and safely. The book is packed with information about software outsourcing - the when, where, why and how to do it. Numerous examples are provided of how others have succeeded (and failed) in getting great software developed offshore.

For example, here are three things discussed in the book that you can do right away:

(1) Take the outsourcing readiness test - see if you are ready and how you can better prepare
(2) Download the outsourcing decision matrix - and determine you best outsourcing strategy
(3) Use an objective vendor evaluation matrix - download the example spreadsheet to compare your vendors
The book contains much more detail on where to outsource and how to do it. Look at the chapter excerpts from the book available on this website. You will see that all of the topics important to outsourcing software development are covered.

However, global outsourcing is constantly changing. New technologies are being introduced and the popularity of outsourcing destinations ebb and flow.  So I created this website and blog to keep you up-to-date on the latest developments. Subscribe the blog’s RSS feed and sign-up to receive my email newsletter and stay informed. Add your comments, insights and recommendations to help make global outsourcing of software development as successful as it possibly can be.
