In today’s increasingly competitive business environment, organizations must be able to adapt to the ever-changing business landscape where traditional business concepts no longer ensure success. The future will be driven by value and competing ideas—creating an environment where old alignments and equations will be replaced by a global network of projects and brand equity can evaporate quickly. Scale business relationships or perish is becoming the new mantra. Written by a team of authors from the world's largest software outsourcer, Web-Based and Traditional Outsourcing explains how to leverage the Web to effectively manage and deploy people, resources, and competencies—regardless of their location. It introduces ground-breaking business models and frameworks that add significant value to outsourcing. This cutting-edge reference: Integrates sourcing, acquisition, payment, and sales into a single end-to-end solutionAddresses outsourced project management, as well as the offer and acceptance of technology servicesDetails how to reduce costs and improve delivery times in software projects through reuse Explains risk sharing, co-ownership, win-win business approaches, and equity-based contracts Examining emerging trends and the future of outsourcing, the text provides authoritative insights into what are becoming the new ways of doing business. The authors supply the enterprise-wide vision of corporate capabilities needed to address contemporary outsourcing issues and include helpful tools for evaluating offshore vendors and determining the best location for your infrastructure needs.

This reference text discusses fundamentals, classification, principles, applications of additive and subtractive manufacturing processes in a single volume.The text discusses 3D printing techniques with the help of practical case studies, covers rapid tooling using microwave sintering and ultrasonic assisted sintering process, and covers different hybrid manufacturing techniques like cryo-MQL, and textured cutting inserts. It covers important topics including green manufacturing, ultrasonic assisted machining, electro thermal based non-conventional machining processes, metal based additive manufacturing, LASER based additive manufacturing, indirect rapid tooling, and polymer based additive manufacturing.The book:Discusses additive and subtractive manufacturing processes in detailCovers hybrid manufacturing processesProvides life cycle analysis of conventional machiningDiscusses biomedical and industrial applications of additive manufacturingThe text will be useful for senior undergraduate, graduate students, and academic researchers in areas including industrial and manufacturing engineering, mechanical engineering, and production engineering.Discussing the sustainability aspects of conventional machining in reducing carbon footprint of machining by adopting different hybrid and non-conventional machining processes, this text will be useful for senior undergraduate, graduate students, and academic researchers in areas including industrial and manufacturing engineering, mechanical engineering, and production engineering.
