People, Business and Technology Drive Value Creation
Excel SoftSources understands that people, business and technology drive value in today's organizations. Unlike other off-shore companies, Excel goes beyond low-cost staff augmentation. Excel offers top-tier developers, with both hard-skills and soft-skills, that become value generaters for your on-shore team(s). Furthermore, Excel offers more than just gap-fill staffing, we provide structured development teams, capable of build and quality assurance, and managed with both experience and methodology.
Often times, off-shore or near-shore outsourcing firms tend to focus on just one thing - technology. Specifically, they may focus on delivering software code. However, if your outsourcing partner is not well-rounded and doesn't have the right poeple or business context, the technology that is delivered sometimes does not meet your business needs. That alone can become problematic. However, what about the unplanned time spent on re-communicating business requirements or the money spent re-writing code and, finally, the additional effort spent on regression test?
These are all common pitfalls of working with off-shore and near-shore teams.
Why does this happen? There could be many reasons. Perhaps, there is a cultural or language barrier that prevents the off-shore resource from asking the on-shore team a critical business question? Or, in some cases, the off-shore resource is only trained to code in a specific manner, using a specific methodology and is not willing able to bend or learn a new technique.
Excel SoftSources specifically hires talent that has more than just plain technical hard-skills but the soft-skills and business skills that clearly provide more value to your project.
