"This book addresses the challenges associated with managing global
offshoring strategies. Offshoring and offshore outsourcing are
hardly new phenomena. What is new is that information technology
creates new opportunities for geographically dispersed business
activities and enables the fragmentation of the value chain for
""traditional"" production and service companies. The pace of
offshoring is likely to gain further momentum. The authors'
intention in this book is to ""put a face"" on some Danish
companies as they contemplate and engage in offshoring projects.
When selecting the cases, the authors chose a diverse set that
exemplifies the complicated range of challenges that companies face
when they migrate products or services. All of the cases were
developed on the basis of in-depth field research and close
collaboration with the respective company managers. The book
targets bachelor, master and MBA students taking courses on global
strategy. It can be used in conjunction with a set of readings and
articles on global strategy issues. Although the book is meant to
serve as teaching material, the authors hope that business
professionals also find inspiration and interesting insights
applicable to their own organizations as they search for global
offshoring opportunities."
