Outsourcing projects to service companies is definitely a growing business in these more than uncertain times.

So what can a dedicated team offer you? A dedicated team provides a vital role in outsourcing the work. A dedicated team is a client-service-provider relationship for outsourcing. It works by taking projects from clients and completing them by utilising specialists and professionals. The dedicated team model provides a number of benefits to clients, including cost-effectiveness as there is no need for hiring, flexibility, adaptability, and still with full control over the team. To set up a dedicated team, you have to go through some key stages such as; taking project requirements, team selection, and team integration, etc.

Strides Empower is a trusted full-service software development partner that can help build and grow your business. A dedicated team with us will help you carry out numerous software development projects in an effective and efficient manner.

In this article, you will learn more about a dedicated team model, how it works in practice and some key advantages for your business.

What is a dedicated team?

A dedicated team model can be defined as a business model that applies to a client-service-provider relationship. The latter provides the customer with software developers on a long-term basis. It is a remote team from the other company involved in carrying out the project. In other words, a dedicated team is an independent body that has its management and its structures.

In fact, a dedicated team entails hiring a full team in another organisation for tasks/projects. This team consists of an entire team. This team is temporary and operates only for as long as possible. The team are only committed to the projects and jobs, which makes it convenient for them to hire a whole bunch of employees and to add/remove them. Simply put, the corporate solution to apps and web creation is a dedicated development team.

How does a dedicated team model work?

The dedicated team model carries out outsourcing functions to provide services to the client. It is better illustrated in various steps:

  • The customer must explain precisely what he desires. The customer must decide the number of employees needed for his project and their technical skills.
  • A dedicated team that meets project specifications is hired by the provider. The team and the client agree on the workload and project needs for the specified duration.
  • Experts are brought together into the team, and work begins daily.
  • The customer has a full project and team management power and committed team services to focus on achieving the best performance.

Why do we choose a dedicated team model?

There are a number of reasons for choosing a dedicated team model, some of which are outlined below:

  • The dedicated team model is cost-effective

One of the most significant advantages of choosing a dedicated team for outsourcing projects is its cost-effective feature. The figures do differ, however, the mean in-house rate is around £50–60 per hour, while the average outsourcing rate is approx. £25-£30 per hour.

  • Transparency in management and communication

Again, the dedicated team is like an internal team operating in a different workplace. You directly oversee them, and that requires communication on a daily basis. You are less likely to miss something or confuse something if there are no intermediaries in the process. Furthermore, you already know what your team is doing and where it is at the moment.

  • Task focus, flexibility & adaptability

The oriented approach is one of the main advantages of the dedicated team model. You have a squad without too much distraction at your disposal! Increased immersion in the project focuses on the subject, creating far more diversified and creative insights into potential solutions. It also improves the adaptability considerably. The team can be reconfigured to the current requirements and requirements at any level of the project.

Many considerations are at stake: implementation of technology, market success, budget restrictions, etc. They all have to be dealt with promptly. This problem is greatly simplified due to the growing turnaround of the production. Although it is famous for agile systems, it is more complex dependent on the case of a committed team because there are more opportunities to test multiple solutions and take into account the best match.

  • No need for hiring

In a dedicated team outsourcing framework, you will typically select applicants from a pool of professionals provided by the outsourcing company. This helps you to access the abilities or skills that would otherwise have been difficult to locate. Although the dedicated team model allows you to participate in the contracting process, your task is to choose from the shortlist those that best suit your company values. You might also find a deep-seated team that has worked on a few previous projects if you are fortunate.

  • Full control over the management of the team

The customer gets total control of the selection, encouragement, and administration of individual team members. According to project demands, you can handle highly skilled and knowledgeable consultants, project managers, equipment, personnel, and facilities through the dedicated Team Model from Strides Empower.

  • Talented and specialist team members

Each business has unique advantages and strengths, such as its product, its marketing strategy, its financial practices, etc. It is, therefore, very typical to be promising and effective in some way for a company but have experts who are not trained or restricted in number. On the contrary, the strength of the companies providing dedicated teams depends on their specialists’ talent and experience. They collect the best of the best and don’t hesitate to share it with everyone around the world.

  • Quick process

More people working on a project are clearly doing it quicker, but it’s not the only speed improvement we are talking about. For example, DT agencies can hire and deliver these employees much more quickly than many businesses because this is the priority that they concentrate and specialise in during the year. Furthermore, the people making up the DT play a far more constructive role, partly because of their familiarity with similar collaborations and sprints and partly because both the supplier and the customer for whom they operate remain in charge.

  • Close collaboration between the client and the development team

The narrowing of the perspective is one of the critical problems of long-term ventures. The more you get into the proceedings, the less you grasp the big picture. It does not only facilitate co-operation within the developer team but between the customer and the team, with a committed team model. This leads to more effective long-term planning. The team members are also more involved in the project, which helps to develop the workflows and brainstorm ideas and to analyse the process’s strong and weak points.

The good stuff comes from close co-ordination between the consumer and the production team. Thanks to everyday contact and management using online tools, for example, you get full control of the project with the dedicated team. The team and customer always find the best ways of overcoming difficulties and problems.

  • Continuous integration

To succeed greatly, the project will always develop — add a new function and refine the current features. For instance, with B2C eCommerce platforms, where UX is a crucial element and generates conversions, it is particularly relevant. A team model dedicated to projects does not involve growth and improvement over the years. Fundamentally, the team can be left intact, and the whole project can pass to a new level without having to scale the team and build another team to support it. The optimisation of the product is another essential method. This necessity is important for the maintenance and development of the product because of emerging technology.

How can you set up a dedicated team? What’s included?

Once you have finalised the vendor, it is time to set up a dedicated team that will carry out projects of outsourcing. The most important steps in setting up a dedicated team are as follows:

  • Contacting the service provider:

Inform the outsourcing company about the complexity of your projects, the structure and all the services needed for a variety of specialists and technical specifications.

  • Take requirements for the client:

The very first step in setting up a dedicated team is gathering the project requirements. The process starts by taking your needs into account. These include the project overview, task requirements, team measurements, and the ideal workflow for your project to assemble the right professionals.

  • Building the team

You can recruit them immediately if you have unoccupied technology specialists currently in the interim projects. You will have to start a recruitment process that might take around a month if you don’t have the requisite professionals. But if you have to build a team quickly, you will have to access your partners’ talent pools, and in just one week, you will get the needed technical expertise.

  • Shortlisting the candidates

The HR team reviews those applicants to understand their history, their technology, their level of English, and their soft skills in order to pick those that best fit the potential project. The client will have interviews with the shortlisted candidates later.

  • Team integration

The dedicated team is incorporated seamlessly and painlessly into the current project. The preferred management strategy and the tools that the team needs to use are open to the client. Technology will enable you to have first-hand co-operation with the team which is essential to the growth of relationships.

  • The outcome

Much like your in-house team, you have the requisite experts to respond to you directly. The main difference is that the team functions remotely, and the manager for software outsourcing is responsible for administrative activities.
