Accelerance Announces Outsourcing Jumpstart Services – $497.00 for Quick Selection of Qualified Outsourced Software Developers 

Software Companies, Both Experienced and New to Outsourcing, Benefit from Fast Sourcing - Days Versus Months - for Qualified Outsourced Teams
 

Redwood City, CA, April 6, 2006 – Accelerance™, a leading expert outsourcing services firm, today announced new Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart services. Jumpstart provides companies that are developing software with a shortcut to the vendor discovery process.  Jumpstart cuts discovery time from months to just a few days, while assuring the quality of the vendors. Vendors are members of the new Accelerance Global Partner network and have been pre-screened and rigorously reviewed to insure the quality of their services. The Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart program provides resources and services that drive down the cost and mitigate the risk of the vendor recruitment process for companies developing software, both those experienced with outsourcing and those outsourcing for the first time. 

The Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart services, starting at just $497 each, are available by country/region or by technology. For those who know the country to which they would like to outsource, the service provides a short list of excellent vendors from the Accelerance Global Partner Network. The service delivers the contact information for up to five pre-screened and proven outsourcing vendors in the specific country/region ofchoice; a complete guide to selecting an outsourcing vendor in the country/region selected, which provides the information needed to narrow down the choices and select the best team; and an hour of expert and objective coaching to help select the best-fit vendor for the client.   For those seeking an outsourcing vendor in a specific technology, the service provides similar benefits, substituting the guide by country with a guide to selecting an outsourcing vendor by the specific technology choice. If the client needs more choices, they are able to apply the $497 fee to additional Accelerance services allowing them to select from vendors across the globe and in multiple technologies. 

“The new Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart services save our clients months in the vendor search process, allowing them to accelerate the start of their outsourcing project and saving them thousands of dollars in time,” said Steve Mezak, CEO of Accelerance.   “With Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart services, our clients are able to quickly create a short list of excellent vendors, by country or by technology, and make the final vendor selection with speed and confidence.  The low fee and money-back guarantee for Outsourcing Jumpstart makes it quick, safe, and affordable for small-and-medium sized companies to offshore their software development.”

Outsourcing old pros and new comers alike praise Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart services

Companies new to outsourcing benefit not only from the quick access to capable teams from the Accelerance Global Partner Network, but also from the coaching time provided by the Accelerance team of outsourcing experts. “By working with Accelerance we were able to save months in the search process for a highly capable outsourced development team.  As this was my first time outsourcing, I relied on Accelerance’s guidance in making the team selection, negotiating our contract, and getting the program quickly setup and running.  The outsourced team we selected has helped us reduce costs and is helping us launch a more reliable application with improved performance.  They are better, cheaper, and faster. Accelerance and the outsourced team have done excellent work and saved us a great deal of money,” said Mark Miles, CEO of BARIDATA.

Companies that have experience with outsourcing know it takes a great deal of time and effort to find an optimal outsourced team match.  With the Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart services, companies don’t waste time with unqualified vendors.  The CEO of  one company recently cut his search process from six months to one month using the Accelerance Outsourcing Jumpstart service. “We are using global outsourcing as a strategic advantage.  Our competitors are still trying to figure out how we can create such great software products so quickly.  Offshore outsourcing is our secret weapon, and I don’t want them to find out about it.  However, I am happy to be a reference for Accelerance with other companies that we do not compete with.”
