You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers.
Various collaboration models exist for outsourcing development needs. It is important to understand the differences to determine what makes the most sense for your organization.
What is team extension services?
Team extension is a model for supplementing your existing engineering team with additional software development talent and skills that may be lacking internally.
What is custom solution development?
Custom solution development is the process of creating software tailored to your organization’s specific needs. For such cases, we provide end-to-end software solution development support.
When does it make sense to use an extended development team model?
There are several use cases for when a team extension model is most effective, such as when your organization needs or is faced with:
- Overall software development talent and skills with a tight deadline approaching
- Specialists for a specific skill set, experience, or expertise
- Limited budget for new hires
- Ambiguous development requirements and/or additional implementations
How does an extended team work with my internal team?
Extended team members are fully embedded into your core team, adapting to your existing processes and preferred technologies. They are available to work remotely across Europe and Latin America or can be onsite with your core teams, depending on your needs.
To ensure consistent communication and alignment of expectations, extended team members set up frequent check-ins and updates with your core team and are readily available to join any existing touchpoints with them.
Why choose an extended team over hiring a dedicated team of my own?
Choosing a team extension service offers many benefits that include:
- Greater control over processes and how to utilize resources and manage staff
- Flexibility on timing, cost and talent—be able to switch developers between projects, extend or cut back on project length due to changing business needs
- Quick hiring and start times of dedicated developers, rather than going through a lengthy traditional recruitment and training process
