07/26/2007: "Outsourcing ONLY occurs in giant multinational corporations"

Why Small Tech Companies Aren't Outsourcing
Many are focused on product innovation.and that's difficult to shift overseas

The leading outsourcers have actually been large corporations such as General Electric (GE), Citibank (C), and American Express (AXP). Many of them sent abroad their IT systems, which are different from the innovative software products that tech companies develop. In fact, few tech companies outsource
core product development, because it just isn't practical to send this type of innovation offshore.

[ Why is it the bad guys are always the big corporations with no allegiance to any local area, culture or land? Ponder, ponder. ]
