Nowadays, outsourcing is considered the best option for all types of businesses to register new digital ideas or modernize existing technology solutions. Businesses worldwide are now realizing the importance of adapting to rapid changes in the technology sector. As a result, many businesses have adopted the model of hiring dedicated and remote developers as a way to scale projects with new technology initiatives.

Using a dedicated development team model is an effective choice as it allows companies to reduce development costs, execute processes faster, and get the best narrow field experts for their projects. Furthermore, hiring dedicated developers gives you greater control over your projects and increases your employees’ flexibility, collaboration platform and offers substantial additional support from a dedicated team.

Using a dedicated development team model is an effective choice

In this topic, we will discuss when is the right time to hire a dedicated team instead of hiring full-time employees. But before delving into this issue, let’s take a look at the concept of a dedicated model.

Definition of a dedicated team model

A dedicated development team is often described as a group of experienced developers, each with a specific skill set that you define. Each team is responsive to your processes and workflow and dedicated only to your business demands.

In the case of dealing with a dedicated team, you don’t care about the office equipment, specialized software, benefits and perks for your team members. You simply collaborate with a talented group of qualified software engineers dedicated to your project and work remotely, communicating with you daily. This model allows you to save up to 60% on operating costs.

A standard dedicated development team includes:

  • Front-end/Back-end/Full-stack developers build client-side and server-side applications.
  • UI/UX designers create simple, responsive and interactive user interfaces.
  • DevOps engineers coordinate the development, operations, and testing.
  • QA engineers ensure delivery of bug-free applications by creating test plans and cases.
  • The project manager acts as an intermediary between the client and the developer. They plan, manage, track progress and reduce project risks.
  • Business analysts evaluate project requirements, user data and analytics and make recommendations to CEOs and business owners.

When to Hire a Dedicated Development Team?

1. The in-house team lacks technical skills.

Typically, an in-house development team is rarely free to try out a wide range of technologies. The reason is, teams often place their faith in a set of standards of practice over the long term and are rarely willing to take business risks. A report by Statista revealed that 46% of companies outsource software development projects due to a lack of skills found in internal teams.

Usually, it is the responsibility of dedicated developers to keep abreast of all the changing trends and provide the necessary insights to the customers. It also inspires them to experiment with new tools and practices to deliver an exceptional product.

On the other hand, a dedicated team works on a variety of projects involving different technology stacks, tools, and development styles. This training prepares them to look at the essential requirements of a particular project and, accordingly, attracts developers with proven expertise on previous projects.

2. Projects need urgent time to complete

Blog - Groove Technology - When The Dedicated Development Team Model is Worth Considered - 2

A dedicated team can help you complete the project in a shorter time.

By submitting your requirements and project progress to a vendor, you can eliminate hiring developers from your list and focus on high-priority tasks. The supply company will select the right team members and provide you with a fully functional team in less than two weeks.

One study found that up to 61% of recruiters face challenges finding qualified candidates, and 24% of recruiters have difficulty recruiting developers for projects in a limited amount of time. With the rapid development of the technology era, the shorter the deployment time, the higher the probability of success and more cost savings than projects with a long implementation time. This is a compelling reason for the appearance of a dedicated team.

3. Long-term projects

A significant advantage of hiring a dedicated team is the flexibility it offers. As organizations grow, expanding or downsizing the platform or adding new updates becomes an ongoing and necessary process. It can be tiring for your internal team to keep the platform running smoothly and, at the same time, to scale. A dedicated team that can take on all the heavy lifting and help you maintain consistent performance over the long term requires complex, potentially scalable.

To reveal the potential of your project, you need a strong team of developers to support you throughout the process. When you work with a dedicated team, you can rest assured that the people you’ve started working with will follow and stick with you until the end of the project.

Also, when you hire a remote development team from Vietnam or any country with lower labor costs, you can eliminate the schedule along with the cost difference. All you have to do is pay a fixed salary to dedicated developers for the number of working hours. What’s more, you can efficiently handle any changes to project requirements as remote developers add flexibility to the project.

4. Projects need quick turnaround and on-time delivery

Having a dedicated development team ensures that the people responsible for addressing your web and software requirements work exclusively for you, so prioritize your work. When you work with a dedicated development team, you can be assured of fast turnaround times and on-time deliveries. Teams working on such projects work in a fully optimized environment to support the continuous completion of projects in a time-bound manner.

However, you must define clear timelines and stick to them firmly for this to happen. It allows you to get your project up, sprint, and get back to the original build cycle. Imagine implementing an in-app business capability, which is critical to a successful launch two weeks before going to market. Without agility, the design, building, and testing of an application would take months, if not years. And that gap is disastrous for your application and your customer relationships. Agile processes take advantage of rapid turnaround and iteration times to ensure time to market is not delayed.

5. Projects that need to be redesigned

Redesigning the web platform is an important milestone for any organization. A redesign project requires meticulous attention and planning, from defining project goals to reviewing user trends and customer feedback to updating existing features. Since dedicated teams work with a variety of technologies, they acquire the techniques and practices needed to develop a robust redesign strategy.

This means, when embarking on a partnership with an IT partner, your business should make sure that your project is intelligently designed using advanced, applied technologies that are widely used and capable of editing and expanding at will.

When there comes time the company needs to be expanded or adjusted, even if other dedicated teams take over, it is very easy to work on your project to be tweaked.

When not to hire a dedicated team?

Despite its obvious perks, the dedicated team model is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Here is a list of situations where a dedicated development team collaboration model is not the best choice:

Short and medium terms projects

You don’t need a dedicated and engaged team for small projects with clear and defined requirements. When the scope of work is strictly outlined, you need a group of people to carry out the tasks set out. In such a case, the fixed price model is perfect for short-term projects, while the Time & Material approach is suitable for medium-term businesses. Hiring a dedicated team for short and medium-term projects is likened to wasting money, which is taboo for financial investors.

Limited Time and Budget

When your budget for a project is tightly fixed, choosing a dedicated team model is not the best idea. Sometimes you don’t need a full-time designer or a project manager. In this case, the fixed price model is more than enough to bring the required results.
