"With rates like these, it must be difficult for companies looking to cut IT costs to justify not sending projects offshore."

....unless, of course, said companies would like said projects to be delivered on time and on spec?

And if they don't then what is the point of said companies even starting said projects in the first place?

"it is now possible to hire an IT specialist in India for about $16 per hour"

"who will be sh!t"
