Outsourcing your project to the lowest bidder, or to India or China, won’t necessarily get you to market for the least amount of money or the greatest margin.

Outsourcing to the lowest bidder (including going offshore) puts you at risk for a vendor that:

• Does the minimum required work.
• Assigns less skilled engineers to your project.
• Are not available. Significant time zone differences and language barriers only exasperates the problem.
• Miscommunicates. Communication barriers typically result in product redesign, thus higher costs.
• Has a high employee turnover rate. Delays and smaller profit margins are the cost of reassigning an engineer to your project.

Offshoring adds additional risks and costs:

• Intellectual Property (IP) protection.
• Complying with employee labor laws.
• Understanding the laws, customs and rights of another country – and what action could be taken against you and/or your resource partner if negligent.
• Political influences.
• Cultural differences which result in miscommunications, redesign, and delays.
• Security – both for your employees and your intellectual property.
