Team Extension

When do you need IT software
team extension services?

Development team extension services help businesses acquire unique or rare talent without the hassle of hiring and training. This lets you focus on strategic tasks while we handle all developers’ on-site needs.

Hiring risks

Questionable expertise, high costs, and a lengthy hiring process are just a couple of challenges that can waste your time. The team extension model delegates these risks to the service provider company while leaving you with the benefits of an uninterrupted work process.

Talent shortage

Some of your business needs can only be addressed with specific expertise that may be lacking in the internal market. Acquiring external experts (usually offshore) for software development team augmentation broadens the candidate pool, speeds up overall delivery, and frees up your hiring team.

Unprepared for offshore hiring

Most hiring departments work only with the internal market, which makes sense. However, they miss many talented specialists offshore due to the region's limitations. This can be solved by collaborating with an offshore team extension in Eastern Europe.
