As described in the Webster® dictionary, "Outsourcing: the practice of subcontracting manufacturing work to outside and especially foreign or nonunion companies". The development of any software, quite logically, falls within the terminology of the word 'manufacturing' & hence, when used for the software industry, the word 'outsourcing' means "offloading the development work to other companies".

Due to the tremendous pace & sheer vastness of the IT industry, it is preferred by most of the companies to focus on their respective core competencies & manage a structured growth, rather than a haphazard one.

By opting to outsource the work which does not fall within your core competencies, you will still be able to retain the client (everybody knows how difficult it is to get one!) for any such work, without increasing the capital expenditure.

Additionally, since you tend to choose an expert for such jobs, the end client's satisfaction is almost always ensured & thus, in all probability, your client will also consider you as a preferred supplier of work / services & hence continued business.

By outsourcing some of the regular & routine work, you can drastically reduce your operating expenses, provided you have carefully chosen the outsourcing partner.

Undoubtedly, outsourcing is fast becoming a strategy for forward thinking managers. No longer just a means of reducing costs, it has become a tool for adding value to business, simultaneously enabling organizations to concentrate on their core business. Furthermore, it helps managers to re-engineer business processes and provide the necessary information to assist effective decision-making and ensure quality and cost control.

Just about everybody: From entrepreneurs in the SOHO (small office home office) segment to small and medium enterprises (SME) to large businesses and empires with diversified interests and varied business processes. Every business benefits hugely through outsourcing and it has to be leveraged and used to the maximum to deliver competitive advantage to a company.
