Outsourcing - Finding a Good Fit

There are two steps in finding a reliable outsource partner. The first step is to do research and identify a list of companies that provide the type of outsourcing service you need.

The second step is to decide which of those companies is the most reliable and the best fit for your software needs. Here are some questions that you can ask the consulting companies to help you in your decision process:

  • What makes your company the best fit for us to hire?
  • What methods are you going to use to communicate with me and keep me informed?
  • How are you planning to stay on track throughout the project life cycle?
  • Why do you think you will be able to handle this project? Show me some projects you have done.
  • Can you provide me with materials about your background and methods? If it is on your website, what is your website address?
  • Do you have any references I can call?
  • When will you be able to start working on the project? When will you complete it?
  • How much do you charge?
  • What results should I expect?
  • What kind of support do you provide? and for how long after the completion of the project?
