Why outsourcing in Brazil with Paradigma?

Nearshore outsourcing your IT services to us

Outsourcing is a business about saving money, and currency conversion as we see it is a fundamental part of outsourcing. A current chart listing the value of worlds currencies against the Brazil Real can be found here. You can read more about brazilian outsourcing advantages.

We are located in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. In short, rates are lower in this part of Brazil then they are, for example, in São Paulo or Rio. Furthermore, we're confident that this region is one of the cheapest on earth to do software development. Hourly rates here in Brazil rage from US$6 to US$20/hour, depending on skills. That doesn't mean lower quality. Paradigma founders are in their 20th year of professional software development. We rigourously persue software quality via short release cycles and the best testing tools and quality assurance standards on the market.

It is well known that India is a major outsourcing player, but Brazil has two distinct advantages: Brazil's cultural and demographic similarity to western countries, and time zone.

In Brazil, our time zone puts Belo Horizonte, Brazil at GMT-3, or 1 hour later than Eastern Standard Time in the United States. This is in stark contrast to New Dehli, India, which is from 9 1/2 hours to 10 1/2 hours later than New York. A large time difference significantly effects communication, meetings and coordination. Brazil has a significant advantage in that it is only 1-to-3 hours later than if you're doing business on the United States east coast.

Outsourcing requires meetings, coordination, requirements and project scope. Besides the fact that our engineers have lived in western countries abroad such as in Europe, Brazil's Demographics fact sheet shows a diverse country that has a closer resemblence to western countries.

A partnership with us, for your outsourcing or offshore development, will offer:

• Proficiency in English, a large staff and a good telecommunications setup;
• We find, interview and hire very specialized engineers every time it is necessary to grow the team;
• Local management and technical assistance for the new member, assuring he will be integrated in a strong development environment (today we have a team with 25 engineers);
• Manage all necessary legal employee taxes, contracts and documents, following Brazilian laws.
• Provide computer, physical space, power, internet connection, telephone, etc.
