SQA's Managed Outsourcing Service
SQA OFFERS NEW UNIQUE CONSULTING APPROACH TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY OUTSOURCING
Providence, RI - October, 29, 2003 - SQA, a rapidly growing provider of software QA consulting services, today announced new service offerings that allow companies who are currently or are considering outsourcing, software development and/or software testing to better manage the risks of outsourcing. SQA will leverage its Custom Quality Methodology (CQM) to bring process optimization, reporting and monitoring to clients while improving their internal processes to solve outsourcing challenges.
As outsourced IT becomes more prevalent among companies looking to reduce costs, companies are increasingly challenged with issues such as communication, time differences, travel, cultural difference, governmental regulations, incompatible processes, inadequate documentation and metrics, poor quality of work, and lack of security of critical data or intellectual property. SQA's Managed Outsourcing consulting services help clients to overcome these and other challenges inherent with onshore or offshore outsourcing.
The Managed Outsourcing services focus on two major areas - Process Optimization to ensure that client companies' internal process are robust enough to successfully deliver applications or products to market when their application development and/or testing are being done by an external 3rd party. The second major area of focus is Due Diligence services to help companies to assess how well any potential outsourced service provider may be able to meet their needs. This service helps to ensure that appropriate service levels are contractually agreed-upon and that proper project management and communication vehicles are in place between the client and outsourced service provider before any work starts.
