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.

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 detailedspecifications when dealing with offshore operations.
