Sourcing Strategy for Competitive Advantage

You need to control development costs. Our business expertise and relationships can help you stay competitive by consulting in these areas:

  • Identifying which tasks can be out-sourced, and how to leverage offshore resources to reduce development costs and increase or augment capacity on an on-demand basis
  • Leveraging skills or expertise not available within the home organization, including independent unbiased quality assurance
  • Developing a comprehensive distributed project delivery model with an actionable plan and the required vendor partner service level agreements
  • Building distributed development teams and leading the transition to the distributed model
  • Connecting your company with experienced high-integrity associates who have US and offshore facilities in India and other lower cost areas
“I have had the pleasure of knowing and working directly with Steve Winters for over a year on the “Hear Music media bar” project with Starbucks Coffee Company. During that time I was able to observe first hand Steve’s management style and drive for excellence. His style is one of leadership and respect for those members of his direct and virtual team members. Steve’s strong organizational skills, coupled with his ability to hold people accountable for quality work, contributed strongly to the success that the music project was able to achieve. I would highly recommend Steve Winters for future consulting and management engagements. ”
