Goa Strategies helped our company remain one of Toronto’s leading high-rise window manufacturers. We needed complex manufacturing software and through Goa Strategies offshore development centers, they built a team for us and we focused on producing windows. Great relationship, great value! We are now celebrating 1 year as partners.

We highly recommend Goa Strategies.”

Fact Sheet

Rapid Access to Resources
Utilizing our in-house human resource recruiting and management function in our Indian office, an Offshore Software Development Outsourcing team that meets our client's needs can usually be in place in 10 business days or less. Moving forward, additional resources can be sourced and secured on an as needed basis and once again, usually within a 10 business day time frame. This represents a substantial advantage over the prolonged hiring timelines and related costs associated with securing qualified resources locally.

Cost Savings
Dollar for dollar in direct costs, the long-term cost of Offshore Software Development Outsourcing resources through Goa Strategies represents a 40 to 60% cost savings over that of locally secured resources. However, many of the risks associated with the traditional outsourcing model are related to hidden or indirect costs such as orientation, training, and management oversight. Our primary mission with every client is to eliminate these risks and improve the productivity, quality, and cost structure of their software development process. Goa's Offshore Productivity Model™ produces a blended development team environment with collaboration, facilitation, and productivity best practices at the core. With this in mind, and considering both direct and indirect costs, our analysis indicates a long-term cost savings potential in the 30-50% range.

Quality
In India, the advantage of a large pool of well-educated and highly skilled programmers is coupled with the fact that many application development organizations have invested heavily in quality. India itself boasts the highest number of SEI CMM Level 5 Quality software companies in the world. This is an industry standard for judging the maturity of an organization's software processes and is a key indicator of the skills and competencies that India's software engineering labour pool brings to the table through an education system that is deeply rooted in such programs. Through our ability to create effective blended teams, our customers benefit from this valuable transfer of knowledge, and high quality software output is the result.

Flexibility
Software organizations may differ with respect to size, structure, maturity, and management. Further diversity may exist with respect to software development standards and processes, collaboration techniques, and team composition. We're committed to helping our clients evaluate their software development requirements and implement an effective offshoring strategy with a sound structure. Our business model enables us to accommodate a variety of engagement options to meet each client's specific offshore development needs integrating the necessary offshore resources into a blended team structure for optimal effectiveness and productivity.

Innovation
We've heard it a thousand times, "I'm too busy writing code and fixing bugs to get anything else done". The diversity of skills and competencies available through Goa Strategies enables our client's top software engineering and management resources to refocus on strategic planning, customer requirements, research, development, and innovation. Our commitment is to help you meet your software development needs while ensuring you keep control of and increase focus on these integral responsibilities.
