Software projects have high failure rates. Even the ones that aren't offshored.

So is it 'offshore' or 'in house' projects that do better?  The article says that by offshoring "the average saving was found to be less than 10 per cent".  Does that mean that we need a price difference greater than 10 percent before we switch?

Offshoring just means you can fail cheaper than fail onshore.
