NEARSHORINGA GAME CHANGER IN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

Hmmm… I’m looking for someone to develop my project. Locally, it’s a tedious task, so let’s look for a team outside the UK.

Where are they?

I’ve found a freelancer, happy to take over their spaghe code. He may be not that cheap, but promising and we understand each other.

Somewhere in a country far, far away a team is waing to do it. Hooray! They work remotely, but are cheap as chips.

cheaply&easily

Tuns out he’s running from one meeng to another to get his next client, and only spends nights coding.

The deadline is missed, the cost has already doubled, and the project is not even halfway! Is there no way out of this madness?

Now what? I cannot even get in touch with him.

What to do, what to do…

There’s nothing to lose now that everything is lost. Poland is quite close, they speak the same language of benefits! They use agile methodology so it’s always clear what they do and only the real work is billed! And quality is great! Mission complete!

Oh no! We just cannot get along, quality is soooo low, and actually everything takes lots of me and money to do.

Far far away...from Europe...
