How much work is going to go over to India in the next couple of years?
Livermore: We already have almost 5,000 (people) in India doing application work for us in development and support as well as other delivery of IT services. It is going to be a substantial part of our overall services delivery network. We believe that (India) is a resource base that has great technical talent, great cost and great quality. When you put those three things together, that makes a country or a place a fabulous resource base. We have not made public specific numbers, but it is going to grow very aggressively for us.
Is there a cost benefit?
Livermore: The cost-saving advantage in India is just huge when you look at the salaries of people in India and the education level. Depending on what you are currently paying and what part of the states or where in Europe you are located, it can be anywhere from one-third of the price to one-seventh of the price.
