Comments:
(1)Proficient means - experience of more than 3 years actively developing and deploying solutions
(2)Advanced to Expert expertise means - organizational knowledge acquired maintained and expanded over the past 5 years at least. It also means, that when a single developer is stuck with something, there are numerous others who can advise the unfortunate one in time not to botch delivery date, promised to the customer.
(3)Intermediate to Advanced expertise means - ready access to sources of knowledge and ability to implement solutions, without delaying the target delivery date.
(4)Working knowledge means - being able to cobble up together something that approximately resembles customer expectations in time for project deadline.
(5)A few dozen means - We start with relatively simple and cheap to produce solution and we gauge provider performance, responsiveness and flexibility, along with passing judgement on final product. If everything works out to our satisfaction, target and final deadlines, proposed and actual time frames and ultimately timely and descriptive communications, be it availability of Project Manager to talk to or a note from programmer in a source code. After all that, we would start outsourcing progressively more complex solutions, while continuing to gauge provider performance, responsiveness and ability to meet deadlines. We currently have 20+ projects of different complexity and differing priority for outsourcing to serious service provider.
