Consider These Factors Before Outsourcing
If you’re unsure whether to handle a QA project in-house or engage a testing firm, consider the examples below.
#1) Skill Gap in One-Time Project & Internal Quality Assurance Team
Assuming you complete the testing for a one-time assignment, the project will necessitate specialized skills that your internal team lacks.
In this scenario, training internal resources is an option, but it would be time-consuming and cost-prohibitive. As a result, you can choose to outsource your QA job to a business that has the necessary knowledge and utilizes cutting-edge technology.
#2) Project with a short timeline but a large number of people required
A QA team’s strength is always inferior to that of the Development and Maintenance teams. The QA window is frequently shortened due to development delays or other factors, and the project or business will want QA completion as soon as possible.
In such instances, one option is to use current resources to complete high-level testing or to hire more people to do rigorous testing. The latter becomes a challenging option because interviewing and hiring employees for testing, as well as maintaining them over time, is difficult. Outsourcing the work to a reputable QA firm is thus a preferable alternative.
#3) Long-term project with a budget constraint
Outsourcing work is a well-known cost-cutting strategy. When compared to having a contract with a third party, maintaining an internal workforce with specific capabilities is always costly. So, if you’re in charge of managing and completing long-term projects, it’s a good idea to consider outsourcing 90% of the job.
Internally, keeping a small staff of business specialists and project coordinators is always a good idea. Outsourcing anything comes with the risk of losing control of the project and expertise of the business. As a result, you should be able to keep a tight grip on what needs to be outsourced.
