It's the mutual trust between you and your outsourcing partner.
It is crucial because trust, or the lack of it, directs the entire outsourcing project. Without that crucial thing offshore outsourcing will not be able to achieve it's desired results.
That is excatly why 45% of our existing clients have been with us for a number of years; some of them almost since our inception in 1999.
Gaining trust is not a one way mandate. It should come from both sides. On our part, Stylus Systems makes all possible efforts to win your trust before embarking on your IT project.
How does Stylus guarantee success in all outsourcing endeavors undertaken? By understanding your business, your requirements and developing solutions to help you in acheiving your business goals.
At Stylus Inc you can be sure of 3 things:
1. expect us transparent and forthright with you as a client
2. take a process centric approach to your project - guarantees success
3. by being stewards of your projects - we succeed only when your project meets you business goals.
Getting more specific, our .NET programmers have been praised for these qualities:
- Communication Skills
- Predictability
- Knowledge of client business industry/domain
This is where our .NET programmers are way ahead of the rest. Our clients have found these 3 characteristics of our programmers very influential in the overall success of their project.
Clarity in communications is very important in a project, more so when you do not see a programmer face-to-face but interact with email, chat or telephone. Our programmers are trained to be on the same page as our clients to avoid time delays and project mishaps.
Vendor predictability is also vital in for an outsourcing buyer. It is important for the latter to know when a programmer says he’ll deliver in one day the client is DEAD SURE that the programmer will deliver in one day and won’t delay. This comes from trust and working together and can be experienced only while working with the programmers.
Knowledge is your business domain is crucial. Each industry has its own jargons and protocols. Unless a person knows the industry clearly he cannot perform on a project aimed at that industry. Our programmers have a basic knowledge of almost all industries. For the rest, they are quick learners on the job.
In essence, we use all the above aspects to win your trust and form a long-term relationship with you - it is as important to us as our software development processes.
