Nearshore Development – Why, and Why Now?

Read MoreWe cover a lot of topics in our blog posts here at GAP, including data science, analytics, software development and everything in between.
While we very rarely mention why you should choose GAP to partner with, in this blog post, we’ve decided to highlight some of the main reasons why collaborating with GAP can be beneficial to your business and your software delivery process. In part one of this two-part series, we cover some reasons why choosing GAP makes sense if you are currently offshoring and wondering whether you should consider a move.
Maybe you’ve outsourced the delivery of your software project to an Offshore (Eastern Europe or Asia) firm in the past, or maybe you are considering outsourcing for the first time. Whatever the case may be, there are often many things to consider. Let’s look at a few.
These four points aren’t an exhaustive list, but let’s dig into the meat of how GAP can help alleviate concerns you might have around these points and much more!
GAP’s team members are called GAPsters. Getting into GAP is not easy. We look for world-class talent. Education, technical capability, fitting into the GAP culture and embracing our values are the key qualifications to become a GAPster. Whether you need fully functioning teams, or you need to augment your development team’s existing capabilities, GAPsters are prepared to deliver. From Architects to Data Scientists to seasoned Tech leads in key technology practices, GAP has a deep and diverse team of engineers that deliver.
Remote teams can often be in other time zones. If your project’s mission is critical, you most likely do not want to wait 12-24 hours for an email. By selecting GAP’s LATAM nearshore team to augment or take control of your software project, you will have instant access to some of the best technical resources in the industry. If project ambiguities cannot be resolved over digital tools, such as Slack, your team is only a half-day of travel away to gain face-to-face interaction.
Using GAP means that our cultural, values and belief systems are very aligned; thereby, reducing the likelihood of friction or miscommunication that can occur with a more traditional offshore business model. Commonalities in musical tastes, food and an appreciation for family serves to further deepen the cultural fit. In the digital world, the written word can occasionally be misinterpreted. This is especially true when communicating across different cultures. The success of your project depends on your team being able to seamlessly gel. GAP has a culture that embraces our North American clients and customers. Our values are easy to remember, just think of GAP. Strive for Greatness, Agile in Everything we do, Invest in People…GAP!
