CO-SOURCING

What is Co-Sourcing?

Co-Sourcing is an outsourcing development method with the difference that:

• In Co-Sourcing collaboration starts from the beginning of the product definition and design. The cosourcer's role is not limited to the development phase only.
• The full project management can even be carried out by the cosourcer.
• The cosourcer has more than just extra resources. The cosourcer has both Technical and Business expertise in the field of the application.

Moreover:

• Being specialized, the cosourcer can provide post-development support and maintenance services when required.
• When the cosourcer leverages on a geographically distributed team, Co-Sourcing can achieve exceptional return on investment through cost reduction.

Why cosource?
There are three main reasons justifying a Co-Sourcing:

• Limited resources: a company might lack the resources.
• Timing: a company might not have the time to develop a new product using just internal resources.
• Cost: the cost of Co-Sourcing is much lower than an internal development.

Our value-added services for Co-sourcing

• Systems Design: The scope and range of our Co-Sourcing activities are not limited to the development phase of the systems. We are able to provide you with the resources to engage into the product process at the early phases of design. Our experts will help you with the overall design and options which will later define the way the development is performed.
• Specification Building: Broncoway can provide you the resources to help you build the user and technical specifications of your systems. The specification building phase is often very resource consuming and contributes to almost half of the overall cost of a systems project. The fact that we can provide you with these resources has clearly two advantages. First, it makes the task of development easier at the development phase. Second, it reduces the overall cost of the project in a significant manner.
• Project Management: To help you manage the overall process, Broncoway provides you with project managers. The project managers can accompany the product process from its early stages all way to the end of the development process.
