Offshoring Management Framework: About Managing Offshore and outsourced projects and Technology development

This blog is about my forthcoming book: 'Offshoring IT Services : A Framework for Managing Outsourced Projects '

Globalization of Information Technology -- software application development and maintenance -- has gained momentum in recent times. Offshoring, or offshore outsourcing, has emerged as a key strategy of managing Information Technology development. There is an increasing focus on executing IT projects with geographically and culturally disbursed teams while consultants and service providers are continue to articulate the benefits of sourcing and offshore development. The book by Mohan Babu, Offshoring IT Services : A Framework for Managing Outsourced Projects, bridges the gap between offshoring strategies and execution and delivery of offshored projects with an analysis of an Offshoring Management Framework [OMF]. The book also addresses the challenges of managing onsite and offshore teams and the 'time and distance' aspects of outsourced projects.
