I haven't done this, but have worked as a consultant to offshore vendors before - they offshore their own consulting! - and would make these recommendations. 1. Specify whatever frameworks, etc, you can in advance. If you plan to maintain the source code yourself, you need to tell them in advance to follow the standards and practices you'd use. 2. Weekly code reviews. Not monthly. You need to tell them what's good and what's bad, so they can react accordingly. 3. Give samples of the kind of work you expect in advance, if possible.
