Nearshore outsourcing is a trend that’s seen rapid growth especially among software and product engineering companies. Some companies need more collaboration and communication between teams on regular basis. As such, they need outsourcing partners that are near and share a similar time zone, understand the environment well, while still saving on costs. Nearshoring is the solution to this challenge.
In nearshoring, the partner doing the outsourced job is nearby. This greatly reduces the amount of travel time. Nearshoring helps organizations quickly and more effectively evaluate the abilities of their outsourcing partner. In addition to that, because both organizations are within easy reach of one another, firms can determine if a potential collaborator is the good fit. The option of in-person visits nearshoring offers provides the opportunity to engage with multiple stakeholders of the organization. And, the new normal is working remotely during these Covid-19 circumstances.
Companies within the same geographical location share certain similarities in terms of expertise, culture, and language. As such, the external teams are often familiar with the systems and applications of the internal team. This situation eases the process of integration, communication, and collaboration between the internal and external teams. The result of this is increased productivity and an improved return on investment.
Nearshoring means companies are outsourcing their work to partners in countries not too far away from theirs. One advantage of both companies being withing close proximity is that they share similar timezones–offshoring involves working with organizations in a different time zone. With nearshoring, supervisors of external teams can collaborate seamlessly without having to keep odd time schedules.
There is an abundance of top software developers within the United States. However, the labor market for skilled IT people is extremely competitive. Many companies, especially the small software companies, are at a disadvantage. Nearshoring increases the talent pool especially in these times of Covid-19 when everyone is working remotely.
