摘要:This paper reveals insights from 245 interviews to compare the perspectives of executives in organizations who practice IT offshoring with those of executives whose organizations do not offshore. The principle findings of the study reveal three conclusions: 1) organizations that offshore are not statistically different than those who do not regarding the extent to which they feel that IT is an area that is used to differentiate themselves from competitors; 2) organizations that offshore are more likely to agree that they have effective methods to measure and assess IT investments than organizations that do not offshore; and 3) organizations that offshore are less likely than organizations that do not offshore to agree that the ROI of past projects has generally been positive.
