RealWorld Systems - Near-Shore IT Development Center, Panama

main » Information Technology Outsourcing

[ Visit Site ] RealWorld Systems (RWS) is a strategic near-shore IT development center located in the "City of Knowledge" Technopark, previously a US military base, in Panama City, Panama. The "City of Knowledge" was created in 1995 to promote and facilitate the synergies between scientific research, universities, and international business. Companies operating in the "City of Knowledge" are extended tax benefits and the ability to offer work visas to non-Panamanian employees.

RWS offers a unique value proposition, operational efficiency. Our opportunity is to reduce or eliminate costs associated with the time difference and distance of current "off-shore" facilities, while mitigating risk of volatile political environments that also limit the benefit of current "off-shore" centers.

We provide:

1. Low risk, Cost Efficient IT Services
2. Business Continuity Planning
3. Call Center Development and Operation
4. Business Process Outsourcing

Why Panama?

The primary benefit of working with RWS, similar to other "off-shore" IT operations, is cost reduction. However with RWS you have the advantage of convenient, less expensive, secure meetings, whether by phone or in person. And Panama offers a tropical climate with no earthquakes and no hurricanes!

Panama is unique in the world. Strategic location is the reason for the creation of the Panama Canal. Today it is also the point where multiple global fiber optic lines converge, offering throughput second to none. Panama is only 900 miles north of the equator, allowing both north and south satellite feeds.

Summary of benefits:

• Proximity to the US - Easier coordination of project staff due to similar time zones, less travel time, lower costs, increased safety

• Politically stable democracy with close ties to the US

• Telecom fiber - Global crossroads to fiber connectivity that traverse the Isthmus of Panama (Global Crossing, Maya1, Arcos1, Panamerican)

• US dollar based economy - no currency risk or costs

• Intellectual property protection statutes in Panama

• Mitigation of risks as part of an overall outsourcing plan.

• Other opportunities - Tax incentives for business (BPO, call centers, etc.) operating in the "City of Knowledge"
