The depth and breadth of analysis in Accelerance’s new 2021-2022 Global Software Outsourcing Trends and Rates Guide is a deeper dive than ever before, featuring expanded commentary and expert insights from our position as the premier global outsourcing authority with two decades of experience in the industry.
Over the past 12 months, the COVID-19 pandemic has provided an enduring lesson in how smart outsourcing strategies can be used to respond effectively to sudden business shocks, and create a framework for long-term resiliency and value. Post-crisis challenges include the acceleration towards digital transformation, coupled with a severe talent gap, particularly in the US. We predict demand for high-tech skills in Western markets will grow in 2021 by a staggering 20% compared to the previous year – presenting both opportunities and obstacles in the months ahead.

“The past 12 months have provided an enduring lesson in how software development outsourcing can be used to effectively respond to sudden business shocks and to then adapt for resiliency and strategic long-term value,” says Andy Hilliard, CEO of Accelerance. “Solid external relationships helped US companies to weather last year’s crisis. Now, the use of best-in-class partners will accelerate global software outsourcing in a new reality where wide acceptance of distributed work models makes colocation mostly irrelevant.”
