Cr�ticas

This book deals with one of the key ingredients responsible for the phenomenal success of Silicon Valley and almost 100% of technology companies we and all other Venture firms invest in. Without outsourcing of software development and other IT services, the internet revolution simply would not have happened with speed and cost that was essential to make hundreds of products available to billions of people around the world. I personally cannot even imagine how Silicon Valley companies could survive without their ability to outsource critical services to other countries. I would personally encourage every CEO of our companies to read this book to explore additional ideas and resources detailed in the book and continue to optimize the speed and cost of development for ongoing operations of the companies to stay competitive. Great Job done by authors! Congratulations for the comprehensive work presented in the book. --Mr Dinesh Gupta, MBA, Managing Director, Satwik Ventures LLC, Silicon Valley, USA

Rese�a del editor

There are three stages to outsourcing: The first occurred at the dawn of industrial era in the 19th century, where mass production for consumption by many, became the norm and simple domestic means could not meet such demands. With the cost of labor soaring in developed countries, manufacturing of products started moving to countries like China to take advantage of labor arbitrage in the 1900s. This is the second stage of outsourcing. This book addresses issues and challenges in the third stage of outsourcing whose focus is on movement of services at electronic speed, utilizing the Internet platform.The book includes short essay questions, multiple choice questions, mini-cases at the end of most chapters and glossary of terms. It can also serve as a good reference book for practitioners.
