ChemSW provides chemical inventory and other software applications to the chemical industry. Their software development team is in upstate New York and small because of the scarceness of programmers with Microsoft .NET expertise in the area. Additional customer revenue was being missed because of their limited programming resources. But the offshore locations, options and wide ranging costs were daunting. It was safer to do nothing than to make a wrong decision in picking a global region and vendor.

Working with Accelerance gave the ChemSW executive complete confidence in moving forward. Accelerance partners in Latin America were considered because of their closeness in time zone and distance, and because the ChemSW VP of Engineering knows some Spanish. Access to good programming talent and in an attractive location that is easy to reach became key selection criteria rather than simply saving programming cost. After several emails and phone conferences the choices narrowed to partners in Mexico and Costa Rica and a final selection was made in just a few weeks.

"During my research, I found Steve Mezak's book Software without Borders and, more importantly, the Accelerance Global Partner Network. I had found one vendor myself after a lot of research. Through Accelerance, I instantly had five more teams from all over the world. Accelerance gave me many evaluation tips to help me make a decision based upon issues like time zones where the team is located and what effects this would have, selecting the appropriate skill sets, and evaluating the final short list. I have been working with one of Accelerance's recommended partners for over a year now and it has been very successful."
