Delivery models
- Offshore TeamFor many companies, the question that stands before them is not whether outsourcing is for them or not; they already know they need it. But rather the question is whether or not to give access to a remote team located in another country. The question may come up whether or not the team is internal or outsourced, but can be more complicated if the team is outsourced. Your success depends on what is right for your organization and how you need to work. The only invalid option is to give up and say it cannot be done.
- Onsite and Offshore Team with Lead Team OnsiteMaintenance for large projects requires a dedicated team effort for a considerable period of time. These projects require continuous support for at least two to three years, only after which they start stabilizing. These projects have to be supported for bug fixing, new report generation, new feature enhancements, production issues, etc. To properly take care of these issues to client's satisfaction, we need to maintain dedicated onsite and offshore teams.
- Onsite and Offshore with Lead Team OffshoreYou must bring the offshore lead onsite to participate in the concept, analysis, and design phases as suggested in the literature; you must handle any necessary knowledge transfer as a planned activity with clear deliverables. The onsite and offshore leads jointly sign off on the estimates and resource planning. During construction, the offshore team is primarily responsible for artifact development (code and tests) and delivery in accordance with defined coding standards and best practices. You can use an established set of process procedures, a standard estimation model, and a resource planning sheet to forecast staffing needs and plan specific responsibilities.
- Onsite, Offshore, and then OnsiteWorking onsite and offshore provide new opportunities for people with excellent communication and leadership skills, good architecture ability, responsibility, and a keen sense of how to leverage partner teams onsite or offshore. Junior developers and senior software engineers must actively develop the soft skills that are becoming crucial to their success. Managers must communicate with staff regarding future opportunities, to keep people engaged. Offshore development requires to periodically transferring data offshore. Customers sometimes express concern over that data's security. You can require all offshore vendors and employees on the team to sign a confidentiality agreement with you.
