#REDIRECT [[Offshore custom software development]]
'''Offshore programming''' (also '''offshore software development''', '''offshore software R&D''') is provision of [[software development]] services by an external supplier positioned in a country that is geographically remote from the client enterprise; a type of [[offshore outsourcing]]. The main reason behind the companies to use offshore software development services is the higher development cost of the local service providers. The global software R&D services market as contrasted to [[ITO]] and [[BPO]] is rather young and currently is at early stages of its development.

==Countries involved==

[[Pakistan]], [[India]], [[China]], and [[Russia]] are the three leading countries that currently control the offshore programming market. According to [[Gartner Group]]<ref>http://www.russoft.org/docs/?doc=1123</ref>, only these four countries are capable of scaling up enough to meet the demands of large-scale projects. Other offshore software development destinations include [[Vietnam]], [[Philippines]], [[Israel]], [[Romania]], [[Republic of Ireland]], [[Eastern Europe]] ([[Ukraine]], [[Czech Republic]], [[Poland]], [[Hungary]]), [[Egypt]], [[Argentina]], [[Bangladesh]].
