Offshore Software Development Process

Presales Process:: Part of IT business development, wherein the presales person will act as a bridge between the organization and its customer; Presales team will analyze the customer business model and create, propose or find new business opportunities while maintaining the existing business.

Off-Shore Sub-Contracting Process:

Off-Shore Software Development Process:

Semaphore caters two types of RFPs (Request For Proposal): RFP received from end client; RFP received from contractual company & Semaphore acts as sub contractor

RFP from contractual company:: Contractual companies receive RFP from their clients and get the software development work done from Semaphore. In this case Semaphore acts as sub contractual company

Sub-Contractual Software Development Process:

Onsite: Contracting Company: Receives RFP from the end clients seeking software development; Send RFP at Semaphore to acquire a detailed project proposal.

Offshore: SEMAPHORE: Business Development (BD) team or Business Analysis (BA) team at Semaphore receives RFP from clients.; If received by BD team then transmitted to the BA team to construct a detailed functional and commercial project proposal.

Communication for Proposal:

If BA come across doubts and is not clear on requirements then they contact contactor asking clarifications over conference call, e-mail or web messenger services.

If received by BD team then transmitted to the BA team to construct a detailed functional and commercial project proposal.

If contractor is not clear on project requirements then they either communicate it to the end client or provides end client contact details to Semaphore for direct communication. This reduces the contractors efforts, fastens communication process.

BA at Semaphore gets the clear vision on project requirements from the end client.

Typical Turnaround time on proposal will be 1 to 3 Business days

Semaphore then sends out the detailed proposal to the Contractor as displayed in the Process diagram.

Contractors will forward the proposal to end client for acceptance
