• Just because you decide you want to take IT work offshore does not mean you need to outsource it. Many companies wanting to tap into the global talent pool have decided to set up so-called "captive" offshore operations instead of working with an offshore vendor. But captive is not right for everyone. Captives add up to overhead costs that an outsourced vendor would be spreading over 100 to 300 clients. But cost is not the only factor. Captive operations may allow a company to be more aggressive.
