Cooperation models
Dedicated team
The dedicated development team is a model that refers to a cooperation between the client and service provider when the client hires a remote team of software development professionals. These technical experts will go through a vetting process, after which we select the best fit according to the client’s requirements with an appropriate set of skills. The client has all the rights to manage the team from his side or can authorize the service provider engagement manager to coordinate the communication process.
Dedicated team model has a straightforward and transparent pricing system — an hourly rate of the developers. Dedicated development team suites best when the scope of the project could not be precisely determined, or the project will require adding new features and functionality over time. The primary purpose of a dedicated team model is to remove the stress of recruitment, office rent, the necessity of powerful computing equipment while reducing costs on product development.
Benefits of going with dedicated team:
- Best for large, scalable, complex, long-term projects
- Predictable budget with a flexible scope
- High level of transparency
- High level of flexibility
Time and material model
Time and material model assumes billing clients for work scope based on hourly development rates. We discuss technical requirements and choose a relevant specialist based on project specifications. The main advantage of time and material model is flexibility and the possibility to change conditions, shift project directions and add or replace features.
If the project specifications can’t be accurately defined, or when requirements could change during the project development stage. The best practices show that Time & Materials model works best under the circumstances mentioned above. The development efforts are billed monthly, based on hours of work provided and the rate of the particular specialist
Benefits of going with time and material:
- Flexible Requirements
- Hourly Rates
- Transparency
- Product Quality
