There is indeed a huge shortage of tech talent. More so if you are adopting data analytics in your organization and need people with an analytics background. Shortage of such skilled manpower has often delayed projects and continues to be the major hurdle in the plan of CIOs around the country. To address this hurdle, CIOs are moving to their alternate plan - projects can be handled by another company specialized in the area. In such an option, cost is higher but offers additional knowledge and talent base that could increase chances of project success. Organizations usually focus on their core area and outsource non-core areas of work. It is time to re-think on this strategy in light of the skilled manpower shortage. Some of the critical projects too would need to be outsourced to counter the hurdle.
