Dedicated development team
The strength of a project team is based on three fundamental pillars. The first is, of course, the right skills and experience relevant to the project and the tasks ahead. The second is the alignment of the team in terms of soft skills and preferences, ensuring smooth and seamless communication. The third, often overlooked pillar, is a stable and dedicated team of developers, designers, SEO and content specialists, and testers, all working under the supervision of a project manager who has been involved from the very first days of the project.
It is worth noting that such a team can be formed by working with a one-stop agency like createIT, which manages the entire project comprehensively. However, companies can also consider outsourcing the entire project team or specific sub-teams.
Dedicated software development team – outsourcing model
A dedicated development team outsourcing is one of the most popular options for companies that want to leverage the expertise of highly skilled professionals working exclusively on their projects. This approach ensures flexibility, efficiency, and full integration with internal teams and processes.
What is a dedicated development team?
A dedicated software development team is a group of experienced professionals collaborating on a single project for an extended period. Unlike traditional outsourcing models, where tasks are delegated to an external company without full commitment to a specific project, a dedicated team acts as an extension of a company’s in-house team, fully engaged in the project’s success.
At createIT, we distinguish three outsourcing collaboration models: Talent on demand, Full-Stack team, and Self-Managing team. When it comes to dedicated software development teams, our clients most often choose the Full-Stack team model, which functions smoothly with different levels of managerial involvement.
How to hire a dedicated development team?
To hire a dedicated software development team, the first step is to define project requirements, clearly outlining the scope, timeline, and budget. The next crucial step is selecting a technology partner – a reputable company offering dedicated development teams. After that, identifying the necessary skills and roles required for the project ensures the right expertise is in place. Finally, establishing effective communication channels, including regular updates and feedback mechanisms, helps maintain smooth collaboration.
At createIT, one of the key stages in the web development outsourcing process is individual meetings, where the client has the opportunity to personally meet potential team members and select those who, in addition to technical skills, also align with the company’s organizational culture.
