Nearshoring

More and more companies are looking for reliable business partners with several decades of experience and special expertise to perform particular tasks in various professional areas. In the spirit of cost efficiency, they commission the experts of a remote country to execute these tasks - this is offshoring (offshore outsourcing). By means of offshoring, you can keep costs down, however, you must allow for risk factors:

difficulties deriving from physical remoteness, project management and communication problems due to different time zones,

cultural differences: working culture, business ethics and behavioral patterns,

differences in methodology,

disparities in qualification,

language problems.

The aforementioned risk factors may negatively affect the quality of work and managing them may result in further costs for the purchaser (e.g. additional project management and coordination costs; explicit or implicit costs owing to non-compliance with due dates or inappropriate quality etc.).

Nearshoring (nearshore outsourcing) may help you find the balance between cost efficiency and quality. In this case, companies outsourcing their activities seek partners that are close both physically and culturally; besides cost aspects, professional experience and reliability - and eventually quality - have a significant role in the selection of the partner.
