Barriers to Communication: Communication doesn’t mean the knowledge of languages. The main objective is to create sufficient mechanisms to increase the flow of information and ideas among the team members. While working with globally dispersed team, communication becomes more complex involving additional challenges like date lines, time zones, locations and distance. To avoid the failure of offshore outsourcing, it is important to establish effective communication with job provider.
IT or ITES Company can use Conference calls, Email, Video conferencing and advanced means of communication to minimize communication gap. For the ease of communication among team members use 800 numbers and invest in high quality and high capacity communication lines.
Complexity of Infrastructure : Another view of business processing outsource and offshore outsourcing projects which require consideration is infrastructure. Infrastructure simply means basic framework of the project. Infrastructure of any IT and offshore outsourcing company includes legal environment, regulatory and more common issues of hardware and facilities.
Division of Labor: Any company which is taking job from abroad should know the answer of questions: How and who will perform the work more efficiently? This is the basic question and mostly it is concerned with cost of labor hours. Each project and work should be carefully evaluated comparing advantages attributed to affected organization. Offshore outsourced projects are not a game of labor rate, while outsourcing any project outsourcer should think about the probability of success.
Cultural Factors: Cultural differences are one of the most commonly misunderstood and overlooked barrier in the path of successful offshore outsourcing. These differences may include language difference to difference in work schedules. There can be very different attitudes and approaches to work and work relationships in different countries and regions around the world. For the success of offshore outsourcing, we must overcome all these problems with a positive attitude and approach in mind.
