Sieena Teaches Companies How to Eliminate Five Hidden Costs of Offshore Outsourcing

Free report reveals hidden costs companies often face in offshoring and the best ways to counter them.

Mexico City, Mexico (PRWEB) February 7, 2008 -- Sieena, an advanced software development firm in Monterrey, Mexico, today announced the release of a new whitepaper titled "How to Eliminate the Five Hidden Costs of Offshore Outsourcing". The report brings to light scenarios where increased costs can occur from offshore outsourcing, leading to a significantly reduced cost savings than originally projected. Sieena offers concrete suggestions on how companies invested or looking towards offshore outsourcing can mitigate these hidden costs.

One example from the report addresses the costs that can escalate in the initial vendor selection process. Traditional offshore firms in India can translate to high costs from repeated trans-Pacific flights, as well as expensive outlay of transoceanic networking infrastructure. A recommended solution is to look for "nearshore" outsourcers, especially in Mexico, which offer similar rates but greater cost savings due to its proximity.

"This report is meant to give companies a guideline to use in this new 'third wave' of offshore outsourcing," says Mauricio Duran, president of Sieena. "The first two waves saw the rise and fall of unrealistic expectations of outsourcing to countries like India, but in reality companies found the true cost savings to be reduced due to hidden costs.

"Even implementing just one of the recommendations in the report can potentially save companies time, money and headache. Knowing what pitfalls to look out for is half the battle."
