World-wide, only the IBM project at NASA has achieved this unique distinction. The quality of the Indian software industry can be measured from the fact that already 30 Indian software companies have acquired ISO 9000 certification and about 60 more such companies are in the pipeline. The Indian software industry will soon have the maximum number of ISO 9000 certified companies in the world for the software sector. The quality standards in Indian software companies are so high that users are choosing to outsource to India. Offshore Projects One of the unique methods adopted by Indian software companies for providing competitive advantages to its clients is through offshore software development.
Offshore projects mean immense time and cost savings.
With the concept of offshore development in place, Indian software companies today, instead of selling individual projects are selling 'virtual software organisations'. We'll devote an entire floor of our building to your projects, and we'll set up the hardware and software configuration to match your standards. We'll assign as many programmers as are needed to carry out your development and maintenance projects and we'll guarantee that these programmers are dedicated exclusively to your project. Just as it's a lot more complicated to build a system than it is to develop a program, it's a lot more complicated to run an entire software organisation than it is to manage an individual project. But many Indian software companies have demonstrated that they can do that, and they're offering that expertise to the global marketplace.
