Outsource Software
UK IT Professionals and Offshore Outsourcing
UK IT professionals working in hardware maintenance roles including upgrade projects and application development are the likeliest to lose their job offshore.
Over two thirds of IT directors cite equipment maintenance and upgrade projects at the top of their outsourcing hit lists, according to HCL Technologies, the IT services outfit.
Software Development is the next most anticipated export – surprisingly showing that the activity is more likely to be offshored than Help Desk and Technical Support.
