Over the past several years, there has been increasing concern over the growth of offshore outsourcing. The challenge now lies in how to embrace this inevitable trend in order to address issues of global development. This book provides the tools, techniques, and knowledge necessary to achieve project success with offshore resources. This comprehensive text discusses initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing global development projects. In addition, it explores offshore trends as well as the emergence of global development managers. The book also includes an accompanying CD-ROM with project templates.

While global sourcing has expanded dramatically in terms of activities, consistent challenges remain for organizations that choose such a business decision. These challenges include maximizing the opportunity afforded by globalization, fully realizing potential gains, and managing the risks inherent to global development. In addition, while companies continue to start or expand their use of global resources, little is being done to help project managers, business analysts, architects, and others succeed in this new environment.
