There are a number of very well established outsourcing vendors who profess to provide offshore product development for software companies. Unfortunately
many of these firms have little experience building commercial software products, having never managed product life cycles, and less experience in product management and the intricacies of commercial product development. These firms
lack visceral appreciation for the myriad challenges of migrating product development offshore, specifically when developers are contract employees half a world away. With little experience in integrating forward facing sales, product management and marketing resources into the development process, their project outsourcing methodologies leaves significant gaps in how work gets done. When products get created without the benefit of tight customer feedback integration, opportunities for rework abound. Such rework can quickly diminish any benefits derive from utilizing low cost and can quickly put small software companies in tremendous execution risk.

Unlike outsourcing project development, implementing an outsourced product development model is a complex undertaking. If you make the right choice, the benefits will be apparent quickly.

But with hundreds of companies marketing offshore development services, picking the right partner can be a daunting challenge. With all the outsourcing being implemented today, few service companies can accurately claim that they have actually designed, built and delivered commercial software products through a commercial product life cycle.

And even fewer firms have actual experience in transitioning commercial product companies from an onshore development model to a Remote Product Development model.This section includes industry trends, Navaya services and case studies for your review.
