Engagement Models
Choose the model that fits your goals and timeline. We can also mix models within a single engagement.
Individual Augmentation
1–2 senior specialists integrated into your existing team. T&M billing, 1-month minimum, 2-week notice to scale or exit.
Dedicated Squad
3–8 engineers with a named tech lead. Fixed monthly rate, SLA-backed delivery metrics, 6-month minimum commitment.
Fully Managed Delivery
Complete product delivery team — product owner, tech lead, engineers, QA. We own delivery outcomes, not just effort.
Common Pitfalls We Prevent
These are the issues we see repeatedly when clients come to us after working with other vendors. We build processes that prevent them before they happen.
Bait-and-switch resources
The engineers you interview during selection are the engineers who work on your project. No substitutions without your approval.
No accountability for output
Every engagement has delivery KPIs — velocity, defect rate, sprint completion — reviewed monthly and shared in writing.
Silent underperformance
Our delivery lead reviews performance weekly and escalates issues before you notice them. Problems surface early with proposed solutions.
Knowledge loss at end of engagement
Documentation and knowledge transfer sessions are contractual deliverables, not optional extras. Scheduled during the engagement, not scrambled at the end.
Abrupt resource exits
Minimum notice periods and structured wind-down procedures are written into every contract. Your project continuity is protected.
Frequently Asked Questions
For augmentation roles, we target 5 business days from signed contract to active contribution. Dedicated squads may take 1–2 weeks for candidate selection and onboarding.
Yes. Dedicated squad contracts include scaling provisions. Minimum notice periods (typically 2–4 weeks depending on team size) are defined in the contract.
Our delivery lead flags performance issues within 2 weeks of identification. If a resource does not meet the defined performance criteria within an agreed improvement period, we replace them at no additional cost.
We match timezone overlap requirements during the requirements workshop. Most engagements require a minimum 4-hour daily overlap window — we staff to meet that.
