Entrepreneur and small businesses usually have constraints on budget, time and reach. Offshoring helps overcome these obstacles to accelerate their success. Not every new entrepreneur or small business owner can do everything by themselves or afford highly-talented expert professionals to work for them. That apart the cost of establishing an IT infrastructure, maintaining and managing teams tends to escalate the overheads. Companies like CC Advantage make it possible to leverage expertise and experience in creatives, IT, software development at fraction of the cost.

However offshoring comes with its own share of risks and vulnerabilities which may lead to irrevocable damages both for you and your clients. Therefore in order for offshoring to be fruitful for your business, you need to do your homework and give due diligence to crucial factors before fully trusting a third party with your work and reputation. Make the most of IT offshoring by putting into practice these simple yet powerful insights:

1.Know Thyself
The age old proverb holds true for offshoring too. Introspection and self-assessment is important to know your team’s efficiency and limitations to deliver on core functions. You can then simply offshore the technically advanced functions like creative media services and software testing or even time-consuming functions. This helps you approach offshoring more strategically rather than shooting in the dark.

2.Right Credible Partner
Offshoring offers you increased efficiencies and economies of scale to shorten the growth curve, but this comes with choosing the right growth partner. Explore and evaluate the potential partner’s level of expertise and capabilities to leverage their strengths.  Dig deep on their digital footprints to know about the company, their employees, working culture, their clients and customer testimonials to find the best fit. It’s best to look for a firm that has expertise in multiple software technologies and a niche expertise relevant to your field and has worked with your national or global competitor.

3.Define Goals. Methodology & Scope at the Outset

 To fully optimize the benefits of offshore software development, it is advisable to define goals, methodology and scope at the start to keep everybody on the same page. This helps bring transparency, clarity of goals and thus contributes to faster turnaround. A transparent and realistic RFP must be prepared through an active participation by both the parties to be mutually beneficial and sustainable.

4.Maintain control/ Ownership of data:
Ensure that you have the ultimate control over the source code and ownership of intellectual rights. To avoid any discrepancy in future, the fine print about ownership of intellectual property rights must be clearly put in ink to avoid any confusion.

5.Seamless Communication
Offshore software development is akin to an orchestra that must play in unison to produce a great symphony. Similarly seamless cross-site communication and coordination is essential for a sustainable and productive offshore development. The importance of interpersonal interactions further magnifies especially in context of agile development method that emphasizes on collaboration and phase wise completion of project.

Offshore software development offers immense potential if pursued with the right growth partner and in sync with the best practices of industry. CC Advantage offers highly-skilled professionals and world-class infrastructure for creative media and software development so you can deliver your projects on time and on budget. Flexible hiring models and proven expertise makes CC Advantage your perfect growth partner for all your creative and technology solutions. Visit www.communicationcrafts.com to know more.

How Mercedes-Benz 2nd Generation Multibeam LED with 84 Single Drive High-Power LEDs Stand Out?






The second generation 2016 MULTIBEAM LED head lamps, which uses 84 individually activated high-performance  LEDs in each head-lamp is not only impressive but also takes headlamp technology to a whole new level. Expected to feature on the 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, these lights automatically illuminate the road with precision-controlled distribution of the bright light.

 The distinctively designed headlamps stand out for their majestic presence and provide a fascinating look with the passively illuminated blue light surface. Reffered to as the hallmark E-Class torch effect   daytime running lamps  and side lights  even when low beam and high beam are switched on, thus creating a pleasant  blue setting for a captivating look.

In line with Mercedes-Benz’s accident-free driving, headlights as one of the most important safety features are vital for a safe driving experience. The new dimension of high-resolution precision light distribution offers better safety and better illumination while driving on the road. It does so by implementing all high and low beam functions of the intelligent light system (ILS) by all digital means. The 84 separate LED chips are arranged in three rows that are individually electronically controlled.

Thus together the head lamps have 168 LEDs offer precision-controlled distribution of light with the ability to reduce glare, offer maximum road surface and function differently depending upon the weather conditions. This is made possible by the newly developed adaptive light functions that include bad-weather lights, city light and a navigation based junction light. 
Equally remarkable are the one part rear lights with tail lamp in torch design which also improve safety in night driving by varying the light intensity of the brake lamp between daytime and night-time.
