A real CEO's offshore outsourcing journey
The cheapest hourly rate rarely equals the best value.
Let's build a more honest ROI calculator.
The "Hidden Costs" You Must Factor In
The sticker price of outsourcing is deceptive. You need to add the real costs of making it work:
The Management Tax
You'll need a dedicated, senior-level person in the UK to manage the offshore team.
The Communication Tax
24-hour delays, misunderstandings, and friction slow everything down.
The Rework Tax
Your UK team ends up fixing and rewriting poor quality code.
The Innovation Tax
No proactive ideas, business insights, or strategic suggestions.
Flipping the Script: The ROI of Elite, Talent
Now, let's look at the other side of the ledger. What do you gain by investing in a dedicated, senior team?
Speed
Real-time collaboration is your superpower. Problems are solved in minutes, not days.
Alignment
Strategic partners who understand UK market nuances and contribute to the vision.
Quality & Security
Senior engineers who do it right the first time. Secure, scalable, long-term solutions.
Accountability
Same country, same laws, invested in local reputation. True accountability.
