Geographic location plays an important role when outsourcing to an offshore development center. The choice of location determines the caliber of resources available, language and cultural compatibility, time zone differences, innate quality consciousness, availability of infrastructure, political stability and, most importantly, cost. Innovature labs has ODC infrastructure at two separate locations at Bangalore and Kochi, India . Bangalore is the Silicon Valley of India and Kochi is the upcoming IT hub of Asia. For the IT industry, all roads lead to India - the undisputed leader in offshore development and offshore development centers. The country enjoys first-mover advantage and is the most mature market in the current off-shoring industry. It has a large population of culturally sensitized, technically advanced, English speaking professionals (most of the higher education in India is in English), employed at extremely competitive costs compared to global standards. Outsourcers with back operations in India or offshore development centers in India consistently report 45 to 60 percent annual growth.

• India is an attractive location for the following reasons :
  Cost saving - Fully loaded costs for offshore work and offshore development centers in India are 30-50 percent lower than those in the U.S. and Europe.
• 
  Faster time to market -Time reductions result from 24/7 development cycles. Offshore development allows for rapid ramp-up through access to a large pool of resources and faster learning curves in some areas stemming from past experience.
  • High quality - India's ODC ranks among the top quality services
  • Greater value - Many companies are leveraging the technical expertise of Indian resources for activities such as R&D.

Infrastructure of a company is one of the most important factors to consider when outsourcing a project to an offshore development center. At Innovature we have over 10,000 sq ft of built up office space spread over two locations. We are equipped with state-of-art technology & infrastructure comparable to the best in the industry, which includes Intel and AMD chip workstations and servers, secure internal networks, scheduled back ups and the best available tools and technology for software development. We have the latest in communication hardware and software so that clients are assured of prompt service with 24/7 up times including a dedicated broadband link to the Internet Gateway station at Kakkanad, Cochin. In addition, 24/7-power facility of 175 KVA Generator backup and UPS for uninterrupted power supply has been provided for power back-up. Fully equipped administrative and training facilities for our internal process management and day-to-day operations.

Innovature labs has proven skill sets in varied technical domains. In-depth knowledge of the latest technologies and tools is important to find the best solution for every client. Our technical experts are among the best-minds in the industry with years of relevant experience in the development of various custom systems and products. We are proud to have them on board with us and they in turn, have it in them, what it takes to be an innovator. Our innovators can add value at the customer's site as part of the on-site team or function as off-site ODC based consultants.

Our onsite teams directly relate to our customers (and even are linguistically capable with languages like Japanese and English). These on-site team members know local culture, business formalities and can even be directly be part at our customer's development team. To physically aid instant communication, we have fully dedicated advanced communications medias available including hot-lines and VoIP channels. These facilities literally erase the physical separation of the ODC as an extension of the client-site and bridge the gap between the on-site and off-site teams.

Our confidentiality policy is fully compliant with industry standards. Non-Disclosure-Agreements, Proprietary Rights and other kinds of agreements including Intellectual Property Rights can be implemented, before setting up the ODC engagement. In addition, each ODC is physically and electronically protected from unauthorized access based on Innovature's internal security policies and processes. In special cases, this level of separation can also be scaled to "virtual separations" across projects from the same customer if necessitated.
