The expertise of KPIT Cummins in the management of offshore projects is enforced through the use of AOSD (Agile Offshore Software Development) methodology. This is especially useful in the context of collaborative development with different teams separated geographically. AOSD regroups the best practices and tools from the world of Open Source development and "Agile" methodologies (like RUP and XP) : short iterations, continuous integration, automation of tests ensuring stability and quality of the final application.
KPIT Cummins proposes to its customers an entire range of collaborative tools to facilitate easy communication between the onsite and offshore teams.
One of the major advantages of this methodology is that it allows our clients to follow the development work done offshore in real-time. There is, hence, a continuous visibility on the progress, with no concessions on quality. It also permits a reduction of time delays and costs, thereby optimising the entire process of outsourcing. In terms of project organization, KPIT Cummins intervenes as the project manager and recommends structuring the teams.
