Global outsourcing is an increasingly important option for Global 2000 companies to reduce the costs of application and infrastructure management as well as production support.

According to industry experts, as much as 75 percent of an IT budget is allocated to application and infrastructure management—all the more reason to reduce it!

Most companies typically support a number of production application systems, spanning a range of technologies and geographies. By outsourcing application management to Freeborders, companies can reduce costs by leveraging the more economical offshore model of application management technologies.

Business benefits from outsourcing extend beyond the higher profitability inherent in lower costs. Organizations are focused not only on saving time and money, but on things that they can gain. This includes skills, process and quality improvements, and competitive advantage.

Outsourcing can lead to a greater ability to focus on core competencies, accelerated time-to-market, maximized investments in existing technologies and skills, and maintaining the 24 x 7 systems availability that customers expect.
