Which of the following would MOST likely indicate that a customer data warehouse should remain
in-house rather than be outsourced to an offshore operation?

A.
Time zone differences could impede communications between IT teams.

B.
Telecommunications cost could be much higher in the first year.

C.
Privacy laws could prevent cross-border flow of information.

D.
Software development may require more detailed specifications.

Explanation:
Privacy laws prohibiting the cross-border flow of personally identifiable information would make it
impossible to locate a data warehouse containing customer information in another country. Time
zone differences and higher telecommunications costs are more manageable. Software
development typically requires more detailed specifications when dealing with offshore operations.
