It's not often that a software company will outsource core product development, but when your developers are fully allocated and a critical project needs resources, you have no choice. Eureka tackled a very sophisticated project - a stateful version of our WebAnswer web search engine - which we needed to deliver to several of our largest, most important customers. Even our own software engineers had to admit they did a great job!

 What is 'Offshore Programming' and what is 'Offshore Outsourcing'?

In the first sense, Offshore Programming means hiring somebody outside your company to provide IT services. Outsourcing is most common for companies whose IT needs are well known in advance. Offshore Programming can also mean hiring someone to be your IT department. Such a partner must have people who can work closely with your staff to understand your unique business problems so that you can deliver, implement, and service unique solutions.

Offshore Outsourcing of software is simply software development at another location, a facility connected with the client's location using high-speed data communication links to allow engineers and managers to communicate on a real-time basis. Clients on the other side of the globe can monitor developments and project milestones on an up-to-the-minute basis, ensuring both quality and progress.

Do offshore programmers write code in their native language?

All code is written using the same tools employed by developers in the U.S., and in English. Development team members have strong English skills and good virtual communication skills. The Client has the opportunity to work with the team leader and review blueprints as they are prepared and will thus be able to very quickly assess the team's communication skills. In the worst case, we can swap team members or even entire teams to meet Client expectations.

What type of team does EEPL have?

At EEPL, we have built a culture that attracts exceptionally talented people; People who thrive on and have an intense passion for understanding and solving implementation problems for our customers. We mostly recruit our engineers with degrees from the top Indian institutes These expert minds mirror a team with high intellectual capacity and capability to deliver.

How does EEPL ensure quality?

We implement the Software Quality Assurance (SQA) process that addresses the quality assurance needs at every phase of the development cycle. Our QA team has developed a focused quality control checklist. In addition, we also have a comprehensive Quality Testing Checklist which ensures that every solution delivered by EEPL measures up to the highest possible international standards .

Is the code documented?

A project is not deemed complete until proper documentation is provided. We believe it is our professional responsibility to provide well-documented code. It also helps us in future projects to enhance functionality if and when the Client requires it.

How do I know what's going on as the project progresses?

All project information, for example requirements, design documentation, user documentation, tasks and defects, are available on a 24/7 basis on our Project Information System. Additionally, every Project has an unbilled Project Manager assigned to it, so as to offer the Client a single point of contact. It is one of the primary responsibilities of the Project Manager to keep the Client updated.

Who owns the rights for the source code?

All rights to the work is with the Client. This includes documentation, source code, binaries etc. which the EEPL team develops in the course of the project. All this is part of the delivery made to the Client. With EEPL, you will never be held hostage in another part of the world.
