Offshoring has its specific considerations

Challenges
Our client, a large international bank, was seeking for outsourcing its SAP development and support environments and was determined to cut costs by going offshore. Addressing this choice through their local IT service providers, it became clear to our client that their choice provoked a complexity that demanded expert consultation

Solutions
Quint was asked to assess the proposals made on aspects that, in Quint’s experience, could become crucial roadblocks when going offshore. This includes knowledge transfer, process maturity, intellectual property rights and so on.

Results
Based on our advice, our client was able to make a well-founded choice and was sufficiently confident to engage with one of its service providers in going offshore.
