ITPEC IP October 2021 — Question 93 of 100
Farming system development or operation out to a foreign company or overseas subsidiary is offshore outsourcing. The work crosses national borders, often to access specialized skills, capacity, time-zone coverage, or cost advantages.
Answer (b)
Why not others:
- hosting provides computing resources or server operation for a customer
- onshore outsourcing uses an external provider within the same country
- system integration combines components into a working information system
Key rule: Outsourcing describes external delegation; offshore specifies that the delivery location is overseas.
