The Outsourcing Debate

The debate will again start since many agencies will grow up the value chain.

ITworld.com - Outsourcing debate to rage again in 2004:

In the U.S. alone, the value of IT services provided by offshore labor will double to US$16 billion next year and triple again to $46 billion by 2007, according to market research company IDC, in Framingham, Massachusetts.
