    Most of the companies prefer outsourcing, in their non-core projects usually outsource them to a freelancers particularly for short-term projects, but this trend is expanding over the years. However, who are the people who will outsource they’re important, but laborious tasks to a dedicated full-time virtual employees.

    In the issue of whom has a tremendous edge? Is it the freelancer or the virtual employee? This is an interesting study variations, but the lagging wins hand down. How?

    * While employing a freelancer, anxiety and incapability are always creek threats while employing a freelancer. For instance, people hire a domestic help on his/her own as assault to hiring one who has been sent by an assumed agency and who comes with an impressive references. Which would you choose and who would you think could be trusted with the important matter, like looking in your house and belongings? In a freelancer, it is more a case of crashing lucky. When you outsource India for your business or work to a reputed outsourcing service provider, just like VirtualEmployee.com there is no hit and miss here, you may or you may not always get a first-rate worker. Every time, you can always be assured in getting an appropriate, completely professional employee.

    *  Between the Freelancer and a Virtual Employee, there is a biggest difference. In operating in India the difference is  the professionalism and permanency.  A freelancer often works from home, those freelancers is unsupervised and frequently works for more than one client while the Virtual Employee easily scores above his/her freelance counterpart.  The Virtual Employee operates out of a proper VirtualEmployee.com office, they are dedicated to work solely on the requirements and they are supervised at all times.  There work hours as a Virtual Employee, match those of his client VirtualEmployee.com, a leading outsourcing company and hired for a long term project.

    * With an inconspicuous and ambiguity, working with an outsourced freelancer can often be replete.  Ensuring the control of the freelance worker in terms of work output, professionalism and meeting deadlines is the biggest challenge.  In comparison, working with a reputed outsourcing provider’s Virtual Employee eliminates the risk factor completely. For example, a VirtualEmployee.com’s HR executives are always on the hand to make sure that your employee is working to fulfill the client’s requirements and meeting all the essential deadlines.

    * To the best software and high-speed Internet connectivity, the freelancer may not always have access.

    * The Virtual Employees stands head and shoulders above the average Freelancers when it comes to a mutually satisfying collaboration with the client.  A freelancer cannot hope to have the same level of collaboration and interaction that a Virtual Employees can with a client.

    *  The Virtual Employees scores over the Freelancer even in the Infrastructure.  The electricity and Internet connectivity breakdowns are often in third countries.  The work will be delay and hamper, it is all depends on the infrastructure.  The freelancer set up himself. VirtualEmployee.com office comply to international standards in which Internet or electricity faults are all but negligible.

    *  The data is the expensive property of the client on which the outsource employee works.  The VirtualEmployee.com make the date mandatory for the employees to sign a contract that stipulates. How safe is your data with a freelancer?  The VirtualEmployee.com is obligated to safeguard the clients data.

    Outsourcing is the fastest growing in the industry, both of the freelancers and the full time virtual employees are  in a great demand especially in the countries like the India, Philippines and China.  This are the countries that outsourcing is the hottest destination in the world.

    The China’s economic booms which has a direct tie with the United States recent outsourcing movement.  This presents the question that many Americans have: Are domestic companies fueling China’s economy by outsourcing jobs that would otherwise be kept in America?  The evidence show that United States outsourcing is the backbone of the new and ever growing Chinese economy.  It just means that America plays an important role on the economy of China nowadays.

    According to The Associated Press, China saw an economic growth of 11.2 percent in the fourth quarter of 2007.  The China is closing bin on Germany as the world’s third largest economy.  The China is seeing not only wage growth but something that the country has never seen, a middle class.  The majority of the middle  class are workers in factories.  Most of these factories are in turn owned by United State companies. Many believe that foreign investment is fueling China’s growth because China’s low wage work force tends to be more skilled,  higher educated, and better disciplined.

    The United State companies have a motive to outsource so many jobs.  The United States of America stands by the fact that outsourcing benefits not only the company but also the consumer itself.  The advantage for the companies in the United States to outsource is that they can operate without having to worry about environmental efficiency. They are not bothered because they know that they cannot harm the Mother nature while most factories in China have to meet severely lower standards than factories in America.

    The reason why some of the companies move to outsource to China because of its weak pollution laws. Outsourcing is not only China, but the rest of Asia will continue to grow and evolve in the future.  There is also a wide belief that outsourcing in China will move to wards technologically advanced goods and services.  There is already a seen evidence that the amount of Information Technology outsourcing is beginning to increase in the country.  Information Technology outsourcing is becoming so attractive.  That is the reason why most of the the Chinese companies are starting to outsource to domestic outsourcing firms.

    Chinese securities firms are expected to spend 70 million on domestic Information Technology outsourcing by 2011 alone.  Chinese companies are also using money made off United State outsourcing to make new investments in the country.  Outsourcing started by American companies investing in China.  Now, the investment flow has begun to reverse and Chinese companies are using money made from the outsourcing to invest in America.

    Asian countries are beginning to follow China’s lead in the outsourcing movement.  One of the most attractive new locations for outsourcing is Vietnam.   Many experts see Vietnam as becoming a primary location of technology outsourcing.  The feud over the principles behind outsourcing will continue no matter what the future entails.  The outsourcing helps the economy and the industry of country. Companies want a better and a good development in there business, so that the solution is outsourcing.

    The TPI has observed that the traditional two to four week window from assignment of an offshore resource to arrival at the United State client site was now a commonly four to six weeks.  India heritage service providers today faces increasing delays in getting visa approvals to sthe staff.  Critical transition phases of large clients projects.  The problem is that any delay risks derailing implementation schedules that have a very little wiggle.

    If the change of the plan anticipated in derailing implementation schedules that has a very little wiggle room.  The change plan is about two-week, however the visa delays make it a four-week turnaround, it means that the entire project plan is off track.  The critical resources during the transition phase is the visa holders.  They were also essential over the long term.

    The resources that come over from the India for the transition return, the offshore team and manage the offshore operation on an ongoing basis has many cases.  Many US-bases client organization was now undergoing significant transformational initiatives like the cloud computing and the standardized service delivery models so that the delays are particular worrisome.

    There are some key elements of an effective contingency plan:

    > To plan for the delays to impact knowledge acquisition and knowledge transfer processes.  Some resources will be denied visas, requiring added flexibility in the knowledge transition planning.

    > Develop the resource mobilization delays are inevitable, develop resource acquisition fallback options.  This is to adjust people internal staffing plans.  A lag in service provider transition resources can mean higher stay, bonuses and SME costs. Diminishing the value of the transaction affects people bottom line.

    > Find better ways to leverage technology and the connectivity.  There is a cohesive effect in the collaboration software and document sharing on virtual teams.  In setting up the appropriate connection was never as easy or as quick as it appears to be.

    > There is some situations that the typical transition model can be invented, the United State base resource moved offshore to work side-by-side with the offshore team members.  This is to keep the transition on the track while improving cross-communication.

    > Current challenges was not isolated to India-heritage firms, jointly develop a risk mitigation plan.  The United State also experiences problems with visa processing in the European heritage service provider.

    The outsourcing helps every company and businesses to help in all the problems that faces of a certain business.  It also helps the economy of a certain country.  In our company we work with the best performance, this is because of the outsourcing.   Everything is possible in outsourcing.

HOwver in 2002 the US economy with an income of $35,100 had surged ahead of Japan which had incomes hovering around $26,000.  There is a cause in this issue, in US this was a period of excellent fiscal management then when an industrilized nation opens itself to economic interaction with a poor country, the scope for the gains are the greatest.
