Benefits
of an ODC Model
Apart
from savings in cost and energy, it provides numerous benefits to enterprises.
Some of them are as follows:
·
Increase productivity – You need to invest
in a lot of time, money and energy to lead your inexperienced in-house
developers’ team to success. As a start-up company, you don’t afford that
leverage of spending lavishly. Offshoring allows for restructuring your
in-house resources, thereby, increasing the overall productivity; and your
partners in offshore development centers have a vast experience in the industry
with tried and tested models of operation. They quickly sense your business
requirement to deliver the best possible product. Encourage seamless
co-ordination between your in-house team and the offshore development center to
get maximum output.
·
Control: You
can exercise full control over the team as the developers work dedicatedly on
your project. You can have your own HR policy and can ask them to work for you
at your convenient time irrespective of the time zones. You have full control
over the operations and processes; the project is your brainchild with no
interference of the ODC vendor. You are the one planning and taking strategic
decisions of the entire project. The team directly communicates with you and
reports to you with no involvement of vendor in it.
·
Reduce operating expenses – As you are aware,
technology involved in IT/ITES industry changes rapidly, it becomes practically
impossible for you to micro-manage it. Moreover, it starts affecting your core
business operations. Relocating suitable roles to offshore development centers
helps you to significantly reduce operating cost. Besides hiring a highly
productive workforce, you save on infrastructural investment in office space
and administrative expenses.
As
a result, you need to invest a lot of money into buying licensed software and
compatible hardware. Added to that, employees need continuous training on the
updated technology, which incurs an extra cost. As an offshore development
center can utilize the same equipment and software for other clients after your
project is over, it is easier for them to achieve faster return on investment.
·
Availability of talent – A leader can obtain
maximum output from his followers, when he is aware of their potential. There
is a plenty of talent available in the development centers. They are
professionals with superior knowledge and a creative mind-set.
Moreover,
being located in the developing world, their aspiration level is quite high and
they are willing to give their best output provided they get a favorable
environment for working. Make sure that your partner invests appropriate energy
in retaining talent. Share this knowledge with your in-house team to facilitate
better collaboration.
·
Greater visibility and predictability in the
development process – Offshore
development centers with their vast experience are able to look into the
project through a different perspective. A new perspective gives you an
opportunity to differentiate your services from the clutter.
