Dedicated team

Dedicated development team for your project

Let's imagine that you want to develop unique software to develop and expand your business. There are several ways to solve this problem, for example, forming your own development team or outsourcing the project. However, recently a mixed approach has become increasingly popular - hiring a dedicated team of qualified specialists.

A dedicated team is a group of developers dedicated to developing software for just one client. This team is fully integrated into the company's processes and actually works as part of its internal staff, which provides a better understanding of the processes and needs of the business, which means the quality of the final result is significantly improved.

How the DEDICATED TEAM model works

The main goal of the DEDICATED TEAM model is to quickly find a team of developers with the necessary qualifications that can complement or completely replace the business of its own staff of IT specialists. The process of attracting and organizing the work of such a team in different companies may differ, so we will tell you how everything works in AVADA MEDIA:

• Requirements analysis . We study the individual needs of the client, the goals and objectives of the project. Next, together we draw up a work plan and form an optimal technology stack that will be used for the technical implementation of the product.
• Team formation . Based on the information received, we are looking for a team of developers with the necessary experience, knowledge and qualifications. The client may conduct technical interviews with potential candidates to ensure their professionalism.
• Conclusion of an agreement . If necessary, we sign an NDA and conclude an agreement on the provision of a team, which specifies the period of cooperation, quality criteria for the final product and the responsibilities of both parties.
• Team implementation . The selected programming team is integrated into the work processes of the client’s company, including communication and management systems, and then begins the technical implementation of the project under the guidance of the customer.
• Monitoring and reporting . All tasks and the time spent on their completion are recorded in project management systems: Teamwork, Jira and Trello. This gives the client full control over the project and the ability to track the development process in real time.

Benefits of working with a dedicated team

When hiring a dedicated development team, a company receives serious advantages compared to outsourcing, outstaffing and other interaction models. We propose to consider the main ones in more detail:

• Well-worked team . You get not just a group of specialists, but a well-coordinated team with experience in implementing common projects, in which the developers understand each other perfectly. The processes have already been established, so the implementation of the software will proceed as smoothly, quickly and efficiently as possible.
• Technical expertise . Developers on a dedicated team usually have a broader and more varied experience than the company's own IT staff, as they have experienced a variety of complex problems and implemented projects across a variety of business areas. This experience allows them to implement more innovative and effective solutions.
• Focus on the project . A dedicated team works only on your project and is not distracted by extraneous tasks. This allows him to fully focus on the individual needs and goals of the company.
• Cost reduction . The company's expenses for administering the development process are minimized, since you do not need to select and hire IT specialists, organize workspaces or establish communications - it is already ready. You pay only for the time actually spent by developers.
• Team management control . You organize the development process yourself, set tasks and manage priorities, so the technical implementation of the software is carried out under your full control. In addition, the actions of the dedicated team are not clearly defined, so you can change the vector of development of your product at any time.
• Possibility of expansion . As project requirements, tech stack, or scope of work change, the dedicated team can be quickly expanded to include additional specialists with the required qualifications. Therefore, the development process will not slow down.

Disadvantages of the DEDICATED TEAM Model

Along with its advantages, the Dedicated Team model has some disadvantages that must be considered before starting a project. Let's look at them point by point:

• Difficulty in managing a team. If you outsource the development of a project to an external company and practically do not participate in the processes, then managing a dedicated team requires time, effort and certain technical knowledge. But even if they are not there, a way out of the situation can still be found - include a PM manager in the team, who will ensure effective communication and take charge of organizing technical specialists.
• Time zones and language barriers. If the selected team is in a different country and speaks a different language, this can be a serious problem. We at AVADA MEDIA always focus on the client’s needs and provide specialists who can work in the language and time zone of the project.
• Team integration. The use of Dedicated Team in a company's unique business processes may be associated with certain organizational difficulties. Plus, this will require additional time and resources.

When to use a dedicated command

The Dedicated Team model, as is clear from its advantages and disadvantages, is ideal for large and long-term projects with constantly changing requirements, when the development plan involves attracting additional resources and using new technologies. However, it is unlikely to be the best choice if you have a small product or a limited budget.

The dedicated command should be selected when:

• You have an internal staff of developers, but their expertise is not enough to solve the problems of whether labor is needed for the product to reach the market on time. In this case, a dedicated team will significantly strengthen your own and help bring product development to a higher level.
• You're developing an agile product, so you have to constantly review the team's staff. But firing existing employees every month and restricting new ones is a difficult task, and it does not improve the brand’s reputation. Therefore, it is much more convenient and correct to hire a dedicated team that can be quickly expanded depending on the current requirements of the project.
• You need to bring the product to the market as quickly as possible, so there is no time to search for each developer individually, check competencies, and then also establish internal communication. By choosing the Dedicated Team model, you get an already well-coordinated team of qualified specialists with more than one successful project behind them. Therefore, development will be as fast and efficient as possible.
• You are launching a technology startup and there is no clear vision yet of what the final result should be. Experienced developers who are part of a dedicated team will study your idea, formulate a clear technical task and, based on their extensive experience, find optimal ways to solve problems.
