Overview: Outsourcing work to offshore organizations has become the latest arsenal in software development over the last seven to eight years. The strongest drivers to outsourcing focus on driving down costs, increasing productivity, reducing time to market, and providing a flexible resource pool.

Suppliers want to maximize their chances of winning business from companies that are pursuing offshore outsourcing services. Since CMMI maturity level ratings serve as a differentiator, these organizations want to position themselves among the elite. Maturity level 5 is the place to be, in CMMI terms.

Read the paper to learn how CMMI ratings can help you pinpoint the best candidate for the job.
