Dedicated software development teams
Hire dedicated software development teams to foster innovation and accountability. A DT becomes fully immersed in your product ecosystem, taking responsibility for driving tech improvements and innovations to strengthen the overall product value.
Hire a dedicated development team
The dedicated team of developers helps businesses cut recruitment expenses and reduce office overhead, as experts work with their own tools and resources. The vendor takes full responsibility for assembling the right talents, ensuring the tasks are completed with minimal errors. If the developerâs skills prove insufficient during the initial stage, the vendor replaces them with no additional cost or delays.
To guarantee quality, a Service Level Agreement (SLA) is applied, obliging the vendor to maintain clean code, resolve bugs efficiently, and keep project management and technical support at scale. In addition, the vendor handles team scaling and retention, quickly filling vacancies to keep the project pipeline operating smoothly and ensure the delivery timelines are unaffected.
Scale faster with a dedicated team
Working with dedicated team services offers numerous advantages that foster enduring partnerships.
- The teams are preassembled, leading to a faster time to market. This enables them to focus exclusively on your product.
- Your internal leadership can transition to strategic initiatives by delegating the core development and technical execution to the dedicated team.
- This model works as an in-house team extension, enabling you to scale up and down developers based on the project's needs.
- Enjoy cost transparency, since the DT model ensures detailed time tracking and regular reporting, so you know for sure the rate and efforts.
- Leveraging worldwide talents enables you to reduce recruitment expenses, including HR wages, advertisement costs, and training.
Why hire a dedicated development team?
A dedicated development team can be strategically deployed across various business scenarios to address specific organizational needs.
1
Early-stage startups agility
Not only does the model enable startups to expand or narrow the team, itâs about flexible development process. The project priorities can be adjusted mid-sprints without legal or logistical friction.
2
Undefined project scope
A DT model can significantly influence the project discovery phase to decompose the elements of ambiguity. The cross-functional expertise helps cover business, technical, and user perspectives simultaneously.
3
Long-term projects
Deep knowledge of the softwareâs codebase reduces the likelihood of new and repetitive bugs emerging, which will streamline the final project delivery and is suitable for a long-term strategy.
Advantages of hiring a dedicated development team
Top-tier companies like Apple, Amazon, and WhatsApp use DT in their broader product development, balancing in-house resources and external partnerships. The model drives clear benefits outlined below.
Setting priorities
DT promotes adherence to the stable roadmap. If a roadblock appears, the team works on critical tasks to remain on schedule.
Flexible team
Scale up development during peak phases by adding frontend devs or QA experts. Scale down resources for post-launch maintenance.
Extensive talent network
Cut development costs by addressing skill gaps. A dedicated partner sources niche specialists across all seniority levels.
High degree of control
Enjoy near-full control by selecting specific project management tools and dev methodologies to have a set workflow.
Well-structured processes
DT is a long-term cooperation model promoting cost optimization. It has established workflow methods for planning.
Cost-effectiveness
With transparent pricing, you have to pay a monthly fee per team member involved for the actual work done and hours used.
Comparing the dedicated team model vs others
The dedicated team model is often mistakenly confused with fixed-price, as itâs designed to meet different business needs.
Fixed-price model
The client pays via the predetermined fixed rate for the project, irrespective of the actual hours spent on the work.
This model fits perfectly with projects with short duration and well-defined requirements (e.g., MVP).
You must pay the full contract rate even if the project is under-delivered or incomplete.
The fixed-price model is used when the project requirements are completely finalized with no anticipated alterations.
Dedicated team model
Payment is calculated based on a set hourly rate for each team memberâs time.
The DT model prioritizes projects that require flexibility due to the evolving requirements or lack a clear scope.
Billing is tied to the actual development hours used to complete the project.
You have complete flexibility to introduce changes or alter the scope at any project development stage.
The time & materials model is another engagement strategy that is usually confused with a dedicated team engagement.
Time & materials model
The final product cost cannot be estimated upfront, so you pay for the actual hours and efforts the team applied to build it.
This collaboration model is flexible, meaning that if the workload decreases, the members are assigned to other projects.
This model is best suited for long-duration projects.
Dedicated team model
The model offers a predictable and transparent budgeting as you pay a fixed monthly fee determined by the teamâs size.
With a DT, you benefit from consistent expertise by working with the same specialists for the entire project development cycle.
Itâs a perfect fit for the determined long-term projects.
