According as the new
kind of business
typical for global
economy is
enlarging, more
companies from
entire world are
forced to look
abroad for high
quality human
resources. For this
reason, most of the
IT companies from
the West are
orientated to the
companies which are
directed in producing
and developing
software from East
Europe, searching for
perfect balance
between high quality
programming services
and efficient
solutions regarding
expenses. Big IT
companies transfer
offshore one part of
the software
developing
solutions, aiming
the outsourcing
offer of the East
Europe companies.
Far from being a
“fashion of the
moment”, migration
to the “offshore
programming” model
opens new
opportunities for IT
corporations. These
are under constant
pressure of reducing
the production
costs, which allows
decreasing of the
final price of
software product
which draws to a
better place on the
market. From this
point of view, the
outsourcing can be
an efficient weapon
in fighting
competition.
For
American IT
companies is almost
impossible to find
good developers and
even so, they cost a
fortune - starting
from 60$ per hour.
In Romania
foreign companies have
access to thousand
programmers, most of
them with solid
knowledge in Java
and other internet
technologies and
they are available
for $12-40 per
hour.
According to
appreciation of
Commercial
Department of USA,
the deficit of
professional
programmers in USA
will be 1,5 mil till
2003. This explains
the interest of IT
West companies in
finding trusting
outsourcing partners
in East Europe. On
the other side,
South East countries
already registered
increasing in the IT
area and have become
important goals on
the IT market place.
