Processes in Global Sourcing of SW Services – which fit best?
- Details
At present, most of the offshore projects in place are building on “static” processes like Waterfall, RUP etc. More and more companies start to deploy agile methodologies (e.g. SCRUM) in a globally distributed environment. Is that compatible in an outsourcing and offshoring scenario? Does the agile methodology with its daily communication needs not impose to high communication overheads and thus costs when working on a globally distributed team? What are the effects on an outsourcig contract if specifications are no longer stable but doe change within the projects, as decided by the team?
Insights from experts really doing such projects should be of value for lots of others.
Who will be the winner of Global Sourcing – short term and at the end?

My experience with offshore outsourcing which is mainly based on the Europe perspective started during the “hype times” around 2000 and at that stage, most companies were urgently looking for talented IT experts. I believe the discussions about the positive and especially the negative effects off offshore outsourcing and who will be the winner happened a few years later when the downturn hit and people feared to lose their job or managers to lose lots of their direct reporting staff.
