Cut your search for an offshore software outsourcing team from 10 months to 10 days.

When your consultation is complete and we have a picture of your needs, we will score our partners against your desires in an outsourcing team. Our verified partners are ranked on more than 500 qualifications and criteria. Only the top 1% of more than 8,000 firms are included in that network of partners. Some of the criteria we rank for include: 

• Location
• Language proficiency 
• Software skills 
• Team size 
• Technical capabilities 

We cut through the clutter so you don’t have to! Once we know what you need and we’ve scored and matched your needs against what our partner firms can deliver, we’ll give you a shortlist of the top partners from our extensive network of qualified firms. You’ll have the opportunity to review them, including all the ways in which we believe they fit your needs.

You’ll see full profiles of each potential partner firm: their staff numbers, software fluency, technical proficiency, language skills, location, any time zone or cultural considerations and other factors you need to know to be comfortable with your choice through our customized web pages and profiles. You’ll also be able to further vet each selected firm to align their personalities and communication style with your own in several rounds of curated interviews.

It’s critical that you take time to look at all these facets of each potential partner to minimize stress and disruption of your current in-house team. We understand that bringing on an outsourcing partner can be difficult for your full-time employees and taking time to carefully consider all aspects of each partner option will help to avoid possible morale issues and misunderstandings among that staff.

If none of the shortlisted firms feel right to you - a rare occurrence - we’ll get you three more. Making sure you have the perfectly matched partner will minimize your costs and risk, so we’re committed to making sure you have the perfect fit from the beginning of the process. 

When it comes to signing on the dotted line, you’re not on your own! This is not the time for a do-it-yourself approach. Rely on our expertise to help you navigate the process smoothly and successfully, even if it's your first time contracting with an outsourcing partner. We’ll help you tailor the approach you need to get your designed-to-fit solution!

Our experienced team of consultants will help you define your scope of work and objectives, outline your business goals, desired solutions and needs so you can close skill gaps and complete your digital transformation. That includes realistic timelines, costs, deliverable frameworks, service level agreements and other key performance indicators to make sure your outsourcing partnership is a winning one before it begins. Whether you prefer to work in an agile methodology or waterfall, you’ll be able to get what you need, when you need it, to get your products and services in front of the market more quickly.

Once your contracts are negotiated to your satisfaction, signed and all the paperwork is complete, you’ll have the opportunity to take advantage of our in-depth onboarding workshop process, Align. 

No one wants their teams to get burned out. Avoid problems working with any outsourcing partner by making sure your team and the partner are aligned from the beginning. Designing an operating model that accommodates your business and the people who work in your business so they don't disengage or burn out is important, and our onboarding program helps you do just that.

Choosing to outsource can affect your regular employees schedules with more early morning and late night calls if you choose a partner that’s in a drastically different time zone, for example. If they have to also deal with a partner that can't deliver as promised, it requires more work from your employees and can damage morale. Your team might wear your team down to the point that you lose intellectual capital, especially if the product doesn't meet the needs of your market. 

That’s where Align comes in. Learn more about how we set your team up for success from the beginning by making sure you and your outsourcing partner are exactly that: aligned. 

Effective client and partner relationship management is a cornerstone of success in any business, especially when you’re outsourcing critical software development projects and products. 

First and foremost,  we know that clear communication is paramount. Regular and transparent communication helps establish trust and understanding. We listen to you and help address concerns with your outsourcing partner. We want them to look good, so we look great. 

Another critical aspect is setting clear expectations. That’s why our Align process is so critical. In any outsourcing relationship, both parties should understand roles, responsibilities, and objectives. Clearly defined contracts and agreements can help avoid misunderstandings down the road. Flexibility is also key; being adaptable to changing circumstances demonstrates a commitment to finding mutually beneficial solutions, the primary benefit of the agile framework for development. 

In addition, delivering value consistently is crucial. We want you to see the tangible benefits of the relationship with your outsourcing partner. Of course, that begins with meeting the SLAs and deadlines as agreed on in your contract. 

Building and maintaining trust is a continuous effort. Honesty and integrity should be at the forefront of every interaction. Admitting mistakes and taking responsibility when necessary builds credibility and strengthens relationships. Our experts help you and your outsourcing partner build exactly that relationship.
