Why Different Engagement Models?

One Size Doesn't Fit Every Project

Every project is unique, and so are its needs. We offer three engagement models so you can choose the one that fits your requirements and delivers the best value in terms of time, money, and results. Here's what each model covers and who it's for.

Frequently Asked Questions

Engagement FAQs

Outsourcing FAQs
  • Is outsourcing expensive?

    Not necessarily. A fixed-scope engagement gives you a locked budget upfront with no hiring, onboarding, or infrastructure overhead. For most SMEs it costs less than building and retaining an equivalent in-house team.

  • How much control do I have when outsourcing?

    You define the goals and sign off at each milestone; we handle day-to-day execution and management, and keep you updated with regular demos and reports. You stay in control of direction without managing the details.

  • What kind of projects are best suited for outsourcing?

    Well-defined initiatives with a clear scope — MVPs, platform builds, integrations, or modernisation — especially when you want a single accountable partner to take it from design to launch.

  • How do I maintain quality in outsourced projects?

    Quality is maintained through clear KPIs, code reviews, automated testing, and QA processes. You get an experienced team that has shipped similar projects, plus adherence to industry standards that reduces the risk of errors and delays.

Dedicated Teams FAQs
  • How is a dedicated team different from outsourcing?

    A dedicated team works exclusively on your product as an extension of your organisation, with you collaborating closely and making the decisions — whereas outsourcing hands full project ownership to us.

  • Can I scale the team up or down?

    Yes. Team size and composition can be adjusted as your roadmap changes — add specialists for a push, or scale back between phases.

  • Who manages the dedicated team?

    We provide a delivery manager and suggest the structure; you set priorities and direction. It's a shared model built around close collaboration.

Staff Augmentation FAQs
  • How fast can augmented engineers start?

    Typically within 1–2 weeks. Vetted engineers integrate directly into your existing workflow, tools, and standards with minimal ramp-up.

  • Do I manage the augmented staff?

    Yes — you direct and manage them like your own team members. We provide the talent and handle contracts; you provide the roadmap and oversight.

  • Is there a long-term commitment?

    No. Staff augmentation runs on flexible, monthly rolling contracts, so you can scale resources up or down based on your needs.
