In the current Global Village, lot of companies want to outsource and lot companies who want to do these tasks for the customers. But there are sometimes confusion on both the sides what can outsourced and what can be taken as a outsourcing tasks.
Came across a wonderful and simple principle about what are the important steps which a product has to undergo. May it be a hardware or software, the steps remain more or less same.
1. Basic Research
|
|
2. Applied Research
|
|
3. Incubation
|
|
4. Development
|
|
5. Testing
|
|
6. Manufacturing
|
|
7. Deployment
|
|
8. Support
|
|
9. Continuous Engg. in order to add improvements
In the current globalized environment there is very few companies in the world who have the ability to control/perform the complete cycle of a product development. Hence any one of the above points can be analyzed, isolated and can be successfully off-shored or outsourced.
