For a majority of our projects, our customer and us are constantly face the dilemma of Build vs Buy. This is typically not a straightforward answer to a problem. In these cases, we’ll narrow down a couple of options and then do a quick financial model to determine, to the best of our knowledge, the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of each option.
