Offshore Development Centers
Illumi builds, deploys, and operates client-dedicated Offshore Development Centers (ODC’s) in which clients commit to investments in long term (multi-year) dedicated resources and facilities for application development and application maintenance. Offshore Development Centers are tailored to clients’ specific needs and requirements. Illumi’s ODC’s seamlessly extends clients’ traditional “brick and mortar” application development capabilities creating a global footprint. Illumi’s proprietary ODC methodology ensures significant reductions in clients’ development costs while improving quality and cycle-times. It achieves the often sought after but rarely achieved goal of 80% offshore vs. 20% onshore development resource distribution. Illumi’s ODC’s provide the best opportunities to arbitrage costs while providing reliable client-specific, domain-centric processes that minimize risk and enhance business value.
Illumi’s dedicated Offshore Development Centers eliminate the costly and unreliable “one-off” project implementations typical of conventional offshore development. Project centric offshore outsourcing initiatives often disappoint clients. Offshore outsourcing investments should be strategic not tactical. Clients require seamless, sustainable and reliable extensions to their own business operations. Clients find it virtually impossible to achieve desired cost savings and application development efficiencies without investing in Offshore Development Centers.
