IT Offshore Outsourcing: The Elephant in the Room

by E.M. Bennatan

Offshore outsourcing is a growing phenomenon. In a new book on offshoring, Erran Carmel and Paul Tjia open with: "Whether one is for it or afraid of it, we are convinced that managing offshoring is a competency that tomorrow's IT managers must learn." ¹ A recent Harvard Business Review article goes even further and states that companies need to treat offshoring as a core strategic function. ² Essentially, offshore outsourcing has become the elephant in the room -- it can no longer be ignored.
