Software development outsourcing is the process of hiring a third-party contractor — as opposed to a team of full-time employees — to manage the design, development, and implementation of your company’s custom software systems.

While companies certainly can choose to build and maintain software in-house, this path comes at a steep cost. The business has to either move personnel off of critical projects so they can focus on software development or, more likely, hire and manage a new team of developers — with all the recruiting, onboarding, training, and HR-related costs that entails — and risk being overstaffed when the software needs are low.
When you outsource software development to a company who specializes in building custom systems and maintaining legacy software, however, you have access to a fully resourced team of business and development experts — all employed and managed by someone else — who can dedicate themselves fully to your project, scaling up and down as needed, and providing a much higher ROI than in-house work.

We offer two main workflows for our customers, each with its own benefits suited to different types of projects. The first is the scope-based model (also known as fixed cost), where we define the scope of work in detail and commit to a specific timeline and price based on that scope. The second model is capacity-based (also known as "dedicated software team" or "time and materials"), which is best suited for larger projects with long-term goals that require iterative development and continuous post-release enhancement. Both models are designed to deliver predictable, high-quality results, but the choice of model depends on the customer's objectives.
