I used to work at Accenture. I was quite literally the ivy league educated white face they used to interact with clients, so they didn't have to have clients interacting with their h1bs. Though it took a while to figure that out. We were pushed to ship to the letter of the contract, because they understood that that would create bugs that their offshore QA wouldn't catch. That meant that there would be an ability to sell support contracts after the initial contract completed to keep the code running, and would make it easier to sell the client on rewriting from scratch when the next iteration of whatever framework or product line we were integrating against came out in a few years.
