Comparative Analysis Into India and China as I.T. Outsourcing Destinations

Globalisation of economies over the past decade has given rise to intense global competition and has compelled business managers to improve their quality and to reduce the cycle time in introducing new products and services. Improvement in the field of telecommunication and data transmission has fostered the growth of the phenomenon of Outsourcing in which corporations are seen to outsource their non core processes to low wage economies like India and China. This is done on a very large scale by global corporations, not only to take advantage of the labour arbitrage but also to enable them to concentrate on their core processes, thereby resulting in reduced lead-time in the introduction of new products.

The main research problem is to compare the two countries with an aim to finding out which of these economies is better poised to seize an increasing share in the global IT-ITES operations. The research problem is divided into two sub problems:

SUB- PROBLEM 1
H1: Can India succeed in capturing a larger share than China in the global IT-ITES operations?

SUB-PROBLEM 2
H2: If the answer to the first sub problem reveals that India is indeed better poised to capture a larger share than China in the global IT-ITES landscape, would established providers of ITES services in India be able to migrate to the higher end Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO) operations in the future?
