Option 1: Offshore Outsourcing Project Management
You are the project manager for a software development project. An offshore outsourcing firm will develop the software. What would you do during project initiation for an offshore-outsourced project that you might do differently for a project developed by your in-house resources? For example, how would your communication plan or project charter change? Write a 2- to 3-page paper describing your project initiation approach for each development alternative.
Include a title page and reference page. Make sure your paper follows APA style according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements. Use two CSU-Global Library resources and/or outside, credible academic sources other than the textbook, course materials, or other information provided as part of the course materials. You may not use Wikipedia for any CSU-Global assignment. For this assignment, a credible source is defined as:
- A scholarly or peer-reviewed journal article
