eConsortian announced today it's dual shore software development services utilizing a captive software development center in Russia. eConsortian's services provide US companies the ability to hedge on their India Offshore Development strategy with a US owned firm that has concentrated on building a cost effective and efficient software development operation in Eastern Europe.
eConsortian, a Dallas, TX based Microsoft Solution provider, announced today its dual
shore software development services utilizing a captive development center in Russia.
eConsortian manages the client relationship, project management, requirements
gathering via its US based staff and executes software development and testing
services from a captive software development center in Russia.
"We have found that US corporations are looking for alternatives to their India software development strategies. Inflation, turnover, and cultural management issues have forced them to consider hedging in other parts of the world. Due to talent and price points, Russia is attractive. eConsortian provides the added benefit of providing US firms with an Eastern Europe alternative to India based software development via a domestically owned Microsoft Solution Provider", commented Al Zwanenberg, Co-Founder of eConsortian.
Indian IT has grown at a CAGR of 28% over FY 1998-2005 and could reach $50 billion dollars by 2008. This unprecedented success has put strains on the countries infrastructure and caused wage inflation and turnover issues for many tier 1 and tier 2 providers. The latest trend shows large US corporations converting their build operate transfer (BOT) operations and other outsourcing relationships into captive facilities to exert more control over negative factors such as employee turnover. For small and medium sized companies in the US, a captive strategy simply isn't feasible. Therefore, these US companies have to begin to look else where in the world. The major countries of consideration are China, Russia, Brazil, and several smaller countries in Southeast Asia.
