Guys,
I promise this would be my last post on Outsourcing Project Management. Here are the reasons why offshore developers should not manage your projects.
1. It is your project! It is your money! You have the final say about what the project is. Giving that job to the programmer is like letting the lion guard the stable (no, I'm not saying that programmers are lion and they will eat all the animals in your stable, many just need to be properly managed). Trust me I have seen people learn this the hard way.
2. Programmer do not know the thorough details of your business, your users, etc. You have to provide direction, programmers create software from that direction.
3. An old expression says you only have the right to expect what you inspect. You have to be involved in the project to make sure it delivers what you need. (from quoteland.com)
I think I have scared you enough about Offshore Custom Application Development. Some of you probably not do it but it is cheap, it is profitable and it is tough. Always remember If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.
