The problem with the Offshoring Debate

No Comments Offshoring

The big problem with the current offshoring debate is the assumption that companies are only looking for cheap labour. IT companies overseas couldn’t possibly do as well as their western counterparts, could they?

The debate needs to move towards talent. Overpass should focus on companies that are looking to offshore for talent and not cost.
For this reason, we’ve made some changes to the website to refer to Overpass as a Technology Talent Scout instead of just Offshore Services. Sometimes language makes all the difference.
