Xpanxion Presents Custom Software Solutions At Gartner Summit

ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Xpanxion, a leading provider of global software solutions, was on site last week at the Gartner Outsourcing and Strategic Partnerships Summit in Orlando, Florida.

The Summit focused on how to effectively align sourcing to balance value, cost and risk.  Chief information officers, sourcing executives and leaders were emboldened to convert innovative approaches into successful outcomes amid economic turbulence and fast-evolving technology change.

Xpanxion was part of the Rural Sourcing Pavilion, a Gartner spotlight on the growing market of rural sourcing providers. Rural sourcing refers to the outsourcing of technology work to non-urban locations, often in the Midwest where lower cost of living structures can be leveraged while maintaining the high quality of domestic work output. Xpanxion's "Cross-sourcing" model, however, goes above and beyond basic pure-play rural sourcing, combining rural resources, offshore resources, crowd-sourcing resources, and onsite resources to enable clients to achieve a best-of-breed (or blended) solution. This innovative model allows Xpanxion's clients to take advantage of the cost effectiveness of an offshore team with minimal risk and few disadvantages.  Xpanxion attended the Gartner conference event to exhibit the unique model among industry leaders.  

Distinguished Gartner analyst Allie Young presented on the topic of rural sourcing with the session, "Rural and Low Cost Domestic Sourcing: The Offshore Alternative". The discussion highlighted the rural sourcing movement, the benefits of "going rural", and situations in which a company should consider including a rural approach.

"As one of the pioneers of the rural sourcing business model, Xpanxion has journeyed down a path parallel to that of the global rural sourcing movement," says founder and CEO Paul Eurek. "This journey is at a dynamic point as rural sourcing – a young practice in the world of outsourcing – is being refined, improved, and transformed into a sustainable sourcing model."
