In simple terms, Software outsourcing means giving software development and management tasks to a provider outside the company. The company defines their Software needs to an outside supplier. In offshore outsourcing engagements, the provider generally belongs to different countries like India where highly skilled English speaking software programmers are available at relatively inexpensive rates. |

Offshore programming is very prodcutive. All major IT giants, such as Google, Microsoft, HP and IBM have taken advantages of outsourcing and move a considerable part of their development to offshore companies. |

US Govt. move to ban outsourcing goes against the spirit of globalization. Under the WTO norms, the US Govt. has committed that it will not restrict any entity belonging to a WTO member country from providing services to US entities from outside the US. On this basis, the US also become liable to face legal challenge at the dispute resolution tribunal of WTO. |
| |
Another argument is protectionism might create bigger evil than mitigating existing one. American products will be more expensive if outsourcing is prohibited. They will be ousted from world market and the American people will still lose their jobs. Here some historical facts should be kept in mind; |
| |
When Japan emerged as a manufacturing hub and weaned away around three million jobs. But the same trend witnessed over 50 million jobs being created in the US in the service sector. This was in addition to employment generated with many Japanese companies shifting manufacturing base to the US. |

According to a study available, half of US population was working in farming at start of twentieth century but now it has reduced to about five percent. Different sets of new jobs are replacing old jobs. |
| |
UK trade and investment is able to confirm that over the past three years, it has recorded 59 new investments for all sector into the UK from India creating some 1,129 jobs and has assisted most of these firms with their investment needs.
There are major indirect gains to US industry. A major share of resources used by offshore development companies be it Hardware, Software, Networking equipment, Antivirus, Firewall protection systems flows to US economy. Major gainers are HP, IBM, Compaq, Microsoft, Lucent to name a few. |

The share of developing countries in this trade in services is only $0.35 concluded. |
