Offshore resources are usually thought of as a supplement to existing teams – taking non-core tasks off the desks of client facing staff so those staff can be more productive and achieve greater return.
But offshore resources can be utilized in other strategic ways. A partnership with a service provider gives owners and managers additional options when considering strategy implementation. In resource-expensive countries like Australia we do not consider solving issues with more resources - we look at technology and other resource efficiencies as our solution set. A partnership with an offshore service provider means that the option of adding resources to a task can bring strategic benefits and still be cost effective.
For a growing recruitment agency, expanding to a new sector or new geography presents cost and risk issues. Existing staff are busy, the new sector or geography is not yet proven or producing a cash flow, and hiring a single senior resource to bootstrap the new venture is a slow, expensive and high risk option.
