Nearshore (border) is a type of subcontracting or outsourcing of an activity with lower wages than in the country itself, which is relatively close in distance or time zone (or both). The client expects to benefit from one or more of the following proximity constructions: geographical, temporal, cultural, linguistic, economic, political, or historical links.
The service work that originates can be a business process or software development. Like delocalisation, the term "frontier" (adaptation to Spanish of the Anglo-Saxon terminology "nearshore") was originally used in the context of fishing and other maritime activities and later adapted by the world of business. >
