    WWT considered two other alternatives to develop the software for ICC: double the current capacity of its software division to develop the software in-house or contract out the development of the software. The decision to enter a software joint venture with SSS created much potential for gain and risk. The strengths highlighted include lower labor cost, recent relaxation of government regulation and SSS’s experience writing telecommunications software. Labor costs are significantly lower in India than in the United States and the quality of the work is comparable. Lower labor costs can help increase WWT’s profit margin. The Indian government remains interested in software, which has made it easier for foreign firms to get government approval required to invest in a joint venture and to obtain favorable import tariffs for equipment.

India is a huge potential market for WWT and therefore it is important for them to learn about the Indian business environment. WWT can take advantage of the opportunity of having the JV located in India by learning…
