number of IT professionals
who provide quality human
resources. These
candidates are not only
technically trained but

is much less as that compared to America and the European countries.
Other important factors include the availability of management skills and tools
for IT infrastructure, quality Indian IT firms that meet international standards
and finally, the support of the Indian government in making Software outsourcing
to India a success story.

Microsoft, General Motors, British Aerospace and General Electric.
