How do you choose the right offshore service provider?
In business today, in software offshore and outsourcing, hundreds of companies are standing outside your business door, hoping to be picked and get a stand in your industry. The choice is right in your hand. Just pick one, but who? Who can make you a happy client? Who can be a part of your business and go with you for a long time further?
Hire an offshore service provider vs hire an employee
From our point of view, there is no difference between them in how you execute them. You broadcast your needs on social channels, read the profiles or curriculum vitae, interview them, choose the top ones for the final round, temporarily hire them to do some pilot jobs, etc. No difference at a glance.
The difference here is you are hiring a running business, not a particular employee. Yes, not a specific employee. So, what you must do must be at the business level, not the employee level.
What is an excellent offshore service provider?
It depends on what you need for your business. If your business is big and has many stages, you should choose a significant and universal partner. Else, what you need is only a specialized partner. That’s the theorem. But universal or specialized, here is what you must have in an excellent offshore service provider, especially when you are in the process of picking up a technical partner:
- They must have excellent communication control. You can easily detect this via some emails and talks.
- They must finish their commitment to delivery and communication plan. You can check them by some pilot projects (test projects) in which you can set some hard deadline that requires the team to spend some extra working hours to finish. Their attitude to bringing you the best result is essential because it shows their high responsibility.
Your intuition is a critical point you should rely on
Intuition is significant when determining a partnership relationship, particularly with offshore software development. This ‘gut feeling’ is our subconscious processing past experiences, aiding in decisions where logical analysis is crucial. Intuition becomes an invaluable asset in offshore collaborations, where cultural and operational differences are factors.
It assists in evaluating tangible elements like technical expertise and cost-effectiveness and gauging intangibles such as trustworthiness and cultural compatibility. While data and thorough analysis are vital, an intuitive sense of a potential partner’s reliability and the potential for effective collaboration can be critical. Combining rational analysis with intuitive judgment, a balanced approach often leads to more successful and synergistic offshore software development partnerships.
