body shopping


Definition from HP:
Rozvoj IT v Indii prešiel niekoľkými fázami.
Prvou bol „body shopping“, keď si firmy prenajímali
indických expertov, ktorí pracovali na projektoch
priamo u zákazníka „on-site“. V tomto období
dopyt po softvéri začína prudko rásť.

Example sentence(s):
  • Našou hlavnou stratégiou je získavanie alebo vlastná výchova špičkových odborníkov v oblasti ICT. Týchto odborníkov potom ponúkame v rámci personálneho outsourcingu našim zákazníkom (Body-shopping), alebo prostredníctvom týchto odborníkov realizujeme jednotlivo zverené SW projekty pre našich zákazníkov – outsourcing vývoja SW projektov, ako tiež zaisťujeme outsourcing prevádzky a rozvoja IT aplikácií - GSW  
  • Je to veľmi špecifický nábor pracovníkov z oblasti IT na krátku dobu - popísaný v angličtine na wikipedii: Body shopping is the practice of consultancy firms recruiting information technology workers in order to contract their services out on short-term bases. Regarded as legitimate consultancy by both the companies that practice it and by the people employed, body shopping is disparaged by those IT services companies in India that assert that they provide real services (such as software development) rather than the "sham" of merely farming out professionals to overseas companies. - Wikipedia
