Go-Live Pacific (GLP) was established to provide lower cost, high quality IT, ERP, and Business-related services to primarily the Australian community. To achieve these objectives, the company utilizes a model where front-end and face-to-face support are provided locally and on-site, while the more tedious and laborious processes are provided off-shore in Manila where quality can be guaranteed at a much lower cost. The company maintains a group of consultants and developers in Australia, who can provide on-site project management, functional design, requirement-definition, gap analysis and other services that may be required by clients. These consultants also perform the final quality assurance of all work done by the Manila team. The company maintains a group of consultants and developers in Manila who can provide the back-end processing, programming, testing, documentation, and other services that may be performed off-site. The team is made up of both part-time and full-time consultants. The part-time consultants are available on demand and they provide the solution as close to the requested date as possible. The use of part-time consultants ensures that overhead is lower, which translates to lower development and support costs.
