Talk:Offshoring IT Services

Merge with offshoring
Strong Agree with merging this article (or PROD).
 * The more I look at this article, especially the history of editors and the high amount of content that seems directly related to the book titled "Offshoring IT Services", I become convinced that this article was conceived as an advertisement for this book. There is virtually no original content and even less that isn't already covered (better) in the Offshoring article. Note that I am not a contributor to the Offshoring article (other than 1 revert for vandalism).


 * I'm not familiar with what the next step in the process is for merging these articles (does one just move any relevant content and setup a redirect or ... ?). Obviously, we want more feedback here on this Talk page.Strom 20:18, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

NPOV dispute - Introduction
Sounds a bit like a BPO Ad for India.

"India has emerged as a principal IT offshore destination because of the low price today of international calls, the large number of engineering graduates churned out of Indian universities, the creation of the Internet, and the fact that many Indians speak English."

What about other countries like China?

The statement "Arguably the work done in some offshore locations is of a higher quality: the academic attainment of workers in India and China often exceeds that in western countries, and in far greater numbers." has no supported evidence. IT offshoring is about one thing and one thing only: price. Corporations seek to lower their costs. The assumption that they are moving to improve quality is flawed.
