What is the everyday life of software development outsourcing like? Juhani Hyttinen from Finago and Eino Hämäläinen from Opinahjo discuss this with Paavo Pauklini.
- Why not do the software development in-house but choose to outsource it?
- Why was the outsourcing done close to Poland, i.e., the so-called nearshoring, and not far, e.g., India?
- What about cultural differences? How close or far is Poland from the Finnish working culture?
- How is the suitability of outsourcing tested with a pilot?
- How can communication between and within the teams of the home country and the partner be made to run smoothly?
- What can and should be outsourced, and what cannot or should not be outsourced?
- How precise is the specification? And what is a good spec? And is there a difference between a spec that is done for your own team and one that is done for an outsourced team?
To answer these and many other common questions about software development outsourcing and nearshoring, you will find valuable experiences from Finago and Opinahjo in this episode.
