Making the big decision on outsourcing/offshoring
CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS POST

Lastly, before making that big decision on outsourcing, Burkett recommends, definitely keep these points in mind:

9. Whatever you do, get relevant references for your provider (i.e. someone in your industry, metro area, etc.)

10. Finally, if your friend runs an offshoring company, and you are contemplating using them, keep in mind that your friend isn't the one who will be doing the work; instead, it will be some guy making $3.75 an hour.

11. Bonus: think governance, governance, governance. But be careful - you could end up spending a ton of money trying to "govern" your offshore team. Those savings can shrink considerably if you aren't careful.
