Single, dual- or multi-vendor? Or do it yourself after all? At the IDG Sourcing Day 2015, decision makers from user companies will discuss their IT strategies in five parallel workshops on 24 June 2015 at the Cologne Sky Lounge — with a view of Cologne Cathedral. The topics range from designing contracts via motivating employees all the way to promoting innovation. Joerg Stimmer MD of pliXos will be there to contribute to the discussion. In particular if you are interested how innovative digital solutions for IT Sourcing Advisory services change the way to plan and implement your sourcing strategies as well as how to manage your suppliers, Joerg Stimmer is your partner to talk too.
Latest developments in automating processes along the full outsourcing life cycle have been combined in a SaaS-based tool-suite by pliXos and its partners to radically simplify global outsourcing. Structured data delivers more transparency, improves sourcing relationships and creates more outsourcing value.
We are happy to announce that our scientifically developed outsourcing provider rating approach will be presented at the 2015 Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS). Meet Prof. Beimborn from Frankfurt School and Christian Jentsch from University of Bamberg in Puerto Rico from Aug 13 to 15.
We sincerely thank the official reviewers for the positive feedback and statements such as “a very useful concept in ICT for Development”, that our model “attempts to strike a balance between the technological components of the software and the “soft” business friendliness of the vendors. Indeed it is a holistic model” or “very informative paper with a lot of potential. I like the fact that you have developed your ’own‘ model and I can see the value that it can have for SME`s”. This feedback is highly motivating for our whole team.
AMCIS is the leading American conference on research done by Information Systems academicians:

A white paper by Nuno Ribeiro, ubiwhere and Joerg Stimmer, pliXos
The lack of IT experts (Fachkräftemangel) as heavily experienced in Germany is a challenge in many European countries and hampering growth. At the same time other countries do have SW developers, etc. in quality and valuable numbers who want to get engaged. Transferring them to Germany and hiring them locally is found not to be a long term solution.
We propose a dedicated nearshore approach to be a solution of choice by eliminating any overhead and adapting the best practices proven at corporations to the specific needs of smaller or medium sized enterprises (SMEs). The upcoming nearshore destination - Portugal - is introduced and some of the benefits of Portugal are explained. The expertise of the authors as well as the options to support companies – especially smaller or medium sized ones – by a successful nearshore approach in SW development is touched.
