TiE-Boston Global Sourcing Workshop
The event was held in the Behrakis Center at Northeastern University, Boston on Nov 18, 2006. The all day event was keynote”d” by James Champy (http://www.perotsystems.com/about/James_Champy.htm), most famous for his path breaking book Reengineering the Corporation.
As a member of the panel on Software Development and IT Outsourcing, I joined other speakers to discuss with a modest audience the hows, the whys and the dos and don’ts of outsourcing. The discussion tended to focus on how to choose the right model and vendor to outsource or offshore with.
