Question
I run small software development company which normally works on outsourced projects. Experienced developers have mentality to select big firms. So to maintain quality of the work, I normally subcontract project to my development partner companies who are big firms.
I have the following questions:
1. Is it advisable to directly connect my clients with development partners for smoothly running project?
2. Should I mention my development partner name in Service level agreement with client?
3. Because of local taxes foreign direct income is always more beneficial. In total project cost, major share is of development partner. What is option where I will ask client to directly transfer specific amount to development partner directly when service agreement is with my company?
Answer
in any case not only in software development, if the operation is out sourced then disclosing the client to the out source is risky
