Software Development Outsourcing

Outsourcing is a management strategy to use specialized outside resources to perform activities traditionally handled by internal staff and resources.

The ability to create, manage and sustain strategic outsourcing relationships is increasingly critical to competitive success. An outsourcing strategy should be an outgrowth of a company's overall strategic plan and directly aligned with the company's directions and goals.

It is important that the managers who are responsible for implementing the outsourcing plan have a clear understanding of that overall strategy, and outsourcing's place in it. Just as important, those managers should play an integral role in shaping the implementation plan for outsourcing.

These relationships will not only cut costs, but also allow companies to join forces with a strategic sourcing partner in order to find broader, breakthrough benefits in terms of revenue growth, market share gains and customer service.

Contact PCI to discuss joining our growing list of outsourcing partners.

PCI Development Services

Major Long Island companies rely on PCI for software development outsourcing services. PCI assumes responsibility allowing you to focus your staff on your core business. PCI essentially becomes a Development Group within your organization. (This should be called in-sourcing instead of out-sourcing.)

Partnering with a quality outsourcing company makes strategic sense. PCI’s integrity, technical expertise, and business practices allow us to present the following attributes:

  • Over 20 years providing quality custom software.
  • Knowledge of a broad range of Internet, Windows, Unix, IVR and technologies.
  • Confidence that we can do the job and that we will be there to support your system for many years to come.

PCI has the capability to implement complex multi-vendor and time-critical systems to specification. Our successful 21 years in business is due to PCI’s loyal customer base. The majority of our business is repeat business. Our customers consider PCI partners because we take responsibility and get the job done.

Our technical staff of aggressive, creative Programmers and Systems Analysts are experienced in working within difficult constraints. We pride ourselves in providing quality software even if schedule pressure is a major factor.

Our typical project is to implement a system or subsystem. We assign a Systems Analyst to define and plan the project with you. The Systems Analyst performs the requirement analysis and top-level design. Our staff of Programmers then complete the development under the supervision of our now part-time Systems Analyst.
