The development of products from the research and development centers has entered an era with fiercer competition, accentuated by the client's desire for increased quality, the constant innovation demanded by the market, the rapid development dictated by the business management and reasonable prices dictated by the stakeholders. Offshoring can help the companies, to increase the international exposure, to find new talents and support the company to maximize the effectiveness of its employees. The objective of this thesis is to develop a framework which can be used in automotive software companies in the process of offshoring, to keep the projects quality under control, from the first steps, until the project is delivered to the customer. It is imperative that the software product, that is developed or tested in another part of the world than the home country of the company, fulfill the internal standards, the quality standards required by the customer and the standard that was created by the team. The potential beneficiaries of this study are especially the companies from the automotive sector, which are intending to increase the potential of the company and search for new talents.
