UK Based SFW Selects Quickstart Global to Establish Their Offshore Development Center
February
21, 2008 - London, UK & Vadodara, India. SFW, a UK based IT
consultancy specializing in solutions based around the latest Microsoft
technologies, today announced that it has opened its development center
in Vadodara, India, using Quickstart Global's Hybrid
Captive™ enabling
model.
The center will house a core complement of development staff,
specialising in Microsoft technologies, and will assist the SFW UK
office delivering projects to its clients.
Peter Hornsby, Joint Managing Director of SFW said "The opening of
SFW's own permanent base in India is the result of assessments to
ensure that both the skills and infrastructure were in place to support
the venture. The pre-work included establishing compatible
business processes, and the delivery of pilot projects for proof of
concept. Baroda was chosen as there is now a distinct trend for
established IT staff to move away from the main 'Metro' centres where 2
hour commutes are regularly necessary, to smaller regional
centres." He continued "We are delighted to be working with
Quickstart Global to provide us with office infrastructure and
personnel services, leaving us free to concentrate on managing team
productivity and significantly de-risking the operation for us."
Neal Gandhi, CEO of Quickstart Global said "SFW are one of a growing
number of IT consultancies and managed service companies from around
the world that are selecting Quickstart Global to facilitate the
creation of their offshore development or support centers in markets
like India, Eastern Europe and Central America." He continued
"SFW visited a number of companies in India including traditional
offshore outsourcers and concluded that our Hybrid Captive model suited
them best. We are confident that many other companies will draw
the same conclusion."
The development center opened on February 4, 2008 and is already working on its first live client project.
