Definition of needs
Understanding what exactly your company wants to achieve is important. It can be a specific function, service, or an entire business process. It is important to plan goals and expectations from the partner.
Search and selection of a supplier
We look for outsourcing partners with a reliable reputation. They must have the necessary experience and expertise to do the tasks. That's why we cooperate only with established tech companies with successful cases and can guarantee results.
Signing the contract
After meetings and negotiations, we create a contract for you and your outsourced employees. It clearly defines the terms of cooperation. It covers the scope of work, the deadline, and other key details.
Cooperation
At this stage, all prep work happens. It includes data transfer, granting access, and making the work plan. After this stage, you can keep control and cooperate with your new outsourcing staff directly. This will ensure they follow your standards and requirements.
Contract review
We value feedback and appreciate your assessment of the results. Once you complete the contract with outsourcers, we can help you review and extend it.
Types of Outsourcing
You can classify personnel outsourcing by the tasks it covers. It can be full, partial, or functional. Or, you can classify it by location: external or internal.
Full
When an entire company process or function is outsourced. For example, accounting or recruiting.
Partial
When some of a company's functions are outsourced, others remain internal. E.g., external text writer for the marketing team.
Functional
The company outsources specialized tasks to a service provider. E.g., strategy development or data analytics.
External (Offshore)
Tasks or services are outsourced to companies or contractors. They are outside the customer's country.
Internal (Onshore)
Specialists get involved in the same country as the customer.
The difference between outsourcing and outstaffing
These are two different terms that are often confused with each other. Outsourcing is the temporary transfer of some functions to a performing company. IT outsourcing can include software development, testing, support, and maintenance. Outstaffing is when employees of the customer company work for another company. In this case, the employee stays on a permanent salary. They are under the management of the performing company, but do the tasks set by the customer company.
