Starting up a cooperation with Insoft is extremely easy and straightforward. It is process driven and consists out of simple steps. We have started over 100 partnerships this way in the past 10 years:

Three steps to a successful partnership:

• Appoint a Project Leader at your end. He will effectively lead the project from your end and communicate with the Insoft team on a daily basis. He also needs to inform us about your procedures and standards.

• Identify a small non-critical test project (1 or 2 man months), and provide us with a functional description. This project is aimed at getting to know each other and eliminating all risks. We guarantee to start within 4 weeks.

• Come to our offices in India for evaluation and improvement. And if our quality suits you, sign a long term contract and start the partnership.

What is your investment?

This one is easy: test projects have a fixed price of 3.000 Euro/ month/ developer, all costs included. And you decide how many developers you require.

All costs included means:

• A full time programmer, in our offices, performing an average of 170 hrs. / month.

• All required efforts of an analyst, a project manager, graphics design staff, a tester, a system engineer, and a technical writer to ensure that the programmer only needs to code. All other tasks are performed by specialists. All these tasks are also included in the montly fee of the programmer, as long as they are not used full time. Even when that e.g. would mean a combined usage of these resources of an additional 100 man hours.

• Overhead, insurances, licenses, communications expenses. 

What is your return?

Well, if you are located in Western Europe, your will gain from 50% (compared with a developer on the payroll) up to 80% (compared to a local software consultant). Needless to mention the lesser effort in people management. The choice is up to you.
