ACE TECHNOLOGIES INC.: Description: Offshore Solution to the Year 2000 Crisis The situation is getting worse everyday, with decreasing manpower and escalating costs, it is getting very hard for the companies bitten by the millenium bug to find a reliable cost effective quality solution. Huge Costs : According to a Gartner Group study, the year 2000 market ranges between $ 400 billion to $ 600 billion. The costs are going to escalate as we draw closer to the new century and this is a big concern. Offshore development cuts the cost due to availability of cheap labor. Decreasing Manpower : Another big concern for the industry is the decreasing skilled manpower. There is already a shortage of technical talent and as the year 2000 comes closer, demand is going to take over supply. Young new graduates coming out of the college cannot be employed for year 2000 work. They have not studied or had any experience in old languages like Cobol, assembly etc. The offshore development company can reduce this problem to a considerable amount due to high availability of cheap and skilled technical people well versed with the old languages. The Time factor : Unlike the other IT projects, this one has a fixed deadline and it cannot spill over. Thus, a large team working 24 hours a day is required to complete the project on time. An offshore company can employ large teams and work can be done for more than 16 hours due to time zone differences between the countries. Outsourcing, the best alternative : A year 2000 project involves the whole code to be analyzed, interdependencies worked out and then the code corrected and tested to be compliant. Hence it is much better to outsource the solution, as then the offshore company can work on the project simultaneously while the client goes on doing the daily routine work on-site.
