Controlling the costs of offshore application development can seem daunting if you don’t know how to structure your pricing. While there are several different pricing structures to choose from, a new trend is emerging for price predictability and cost control that you may want to consider.

Fixed price for fixed scope

Gone are the days when software development was done only in Palo Alto or by corporate America within the glass towers of companies such as Sun and Oracle. With the right offshore outsourcing partner, any innovator with a market-worthy software idea can be successful.

You know you want to outsource your software development to reduce your costs—and to scale your resources. But knowing where to turn for reliable outsourced development is another story. If you do a Google search you’ll find hundreds of service providers that might fit the bill. But that won’t point you to the outsourced developer that’s the best fit for your business.

Off-shore outsourcing is a big decision that puts big fear into companies new to the territory. We understand. Development is the lifeblood of your company. And choosing the right off-shore development provider is no small feat.

As outsourcing service models mature, vendors are striving to provide a partnership style of collaboration. This is based on the outsourcing teams being able to understand and value more fully the customer business overall aim and vision.

Current trends for IT outsourcing are based, in part, on an increased growth of Cloud-based developments, along with the need to handle very large and unstructured data sets, known as Big Data Analytics. We explore these trends thoroughly through our work with clients at Shinetech and unpack their meaning below.

Cloud Computing

The ever increasing trend towards business applications for mobile devices has created more demand for mobile application development. This is a trend embraced by Shinetech. Jerry Zhang, Shinetech founder and CEO has stated: “Shinetech over the last year or more has built substantial teams in iOS, Android and Windows.

One could argue that innovation is derived from an accumulation of experiences.  Software in and of itself is an innovation, and so is the practice of IT outsourcing. At Shinetech, our software engineers harness their capabilities and experience to innovate IT outsourcing.
