Technical knowledge acquired
A common view of this issue :
Indian firms have not acquired full depth and
breadth of knowledge and information thatwould enable them to master and assimilate thetechnology effectively.
Limited technological content of the
collaboration results from the efforts ofsuppliers firms to minimize the knowledge andexpertise they make available.

Technology policy statement of 1983,emphasized the need to plan collaboration
agreements in ways that would ensure effective
transfer of basic knowledge, know-why
important inputs to the importing firms for
subsequent absorption, adaptation and up-
gradation of the initially acquired knowledge.

One of the major reasons that Indian software exports
is gaining recognition across the world is because ofquality certification. Out of 23 SEI-CMM level 5
certified companies world over, 15 are from India. This
number is expected to grow as there are several
companies that have already reached to level 4. Another encouraging sign is that small office segment
of the market has grown by 70% in 2003-04. Besides
large corporate market like ERP segment grew by
23%,e-commerce solutions by 300% CAD/CAMmarket 41% and banking by 70%.

Chinas economic policy reforms
Chinas economic reforms started a full 25 years ago
while in India they started a decade later in 1991. Deng Xioping kicked off economic reforms when he
suggested that tens of thousands of small and mediumenterprises be thrown in private waters to swim or sink
For most of the last two decades Chinas economy hasgrown double digit growth with an average CAGR(Compound Aggregate Growth Ratio) of 10% in the last
decades.
In the last decade China has paid special interest to high
technology industries. From exporting toys and textiles, China has today grown
to be major exporter of IT hardware, overtook Taiwan in2000.

Chinas software story
Chinas software growth is currently hampered by
number of factors:
China Media Intelligence (CMI) estimates that out of
5,000 software companies 55% of them have less than 50
people. Another 42% employ 50-100 people and there are
only a handful of companies with an employee strength
of 1000 people.
CMI says Yongyou the largest domestic player in
software development. The countrys largest company
Oriental Software has a little over 1300 people compare
that to 26,000 at Infosys and 24,000 at TCS.

Cont.// Some of the top companies had obtained CMM
certification, a large number of middle level companieshad not even heard it.
Lack of comfort with English language and the cultural
confusion that comes with it made Chinas software
industry immature.
India has at least five year lead in software outsourcing.
India has surpassed Ireland as the prime outsourcing
destination of the world. The Indian companies have won
a reputation of low cost high quality software delivery.
