    Beyond Offshore: Right-Shoring Explained

    David from BBD explains the concept of ride-shoring, a strategic approach combining nearshoring, offshoring, and onsite resources to create optimal software development teams. This flexible partnership model focuses on finding the best quality people in the right locations to create customized solutions that balance costs, quality requirements, and regulatory needs. • Ride-shoring originated in manufacturing as moving business operations to optimal locations for maximizing profits and lowering costs • Quality issues in outsourcing typically arise when companies abdicate responsibility rather than forming true partnerships • Successful partnerships require shared roadmaps and vision between companies and their technology vendors • Three key considerations for team distribution: required on-site presence, data access regulations, and time zone alignment • BBD operates in Portugal, UK, Netherlands, South Africa, and India, customizing team distribution based on client requirements • South Africa's strong work ethic and "city of gold" heritage influences BBD's 40-year focus on delivery and client satisfaction Stay tuned for more Tech Talks coming soon.
