Description
Summary:Our area of research is outsourcing software development, that is, engaging an external party (i.e. software vendor) to develop software applications programme. It is one of the software development methods. Other methods include developing software in-house and purchasing software packages. We are interested in studying outsourcing software development because it is an increasingly popular phenomenon in Singapore but little literature has been written on it. The objective of our research is to identify the various aspects of the software outsourcing process, and to highlight a pattern of "do's and don'ts" of outsourcing small to medium size software in Singapore.
