In my experience the answer for this is different at every firm: How do you choose whether to staff an app development / implementation project locally near the client vs one of the other offices out of country?

Strange question. Is this your first implementation project? If not , what challenges have you faced with previous implementation projects that made you to ask around how to stuff the team now?

True! Having worked as a vendor for different firms some projects need internal staffing & some does not.

Depends on what value the product brings? What are critical business outcome of that product?
