Our Engagement Models

When you outsource software development, the key to ensuring fruitful collaboration with an outsourcing vendor is to select the appropriate engagement model. Based on the project goals, timeframes, and resources available, this choice helps provide a wireframe for further partnership.

ICTech Labs grants you access to highly qualified and experienced developers with in-depth domain knowledge. From web and mobile apps, custom front-end and back-end software development, to AI, IoT, and cloud systems โ€” weโ€™ve got you covered!

It is effective and convenient way of cutting cost on keeping in-house staff for a project for short span of time. As part of the model a Dedicated Resources is assigned to client based upon the project requirement and as a benefit, client has more control over the team and execution activities. This model offers great advantage to clients wherein they can make rational decisions about their scope & costing of projects and can get better ROI.

How does it work?

This engagement model works best with complex, long-term projects with well-defined requirements. To achieve success, you must have sufficient expertise in project management and be willing to take control of the process. You provide a list of project requirements and ICTech Labs forms a eam that can deliver the expected results most efficiently. You perform project and team management. We oversee overall project performance and control the quality of the services provided.

When is it best used?
This engagement model works best with complex, long-term projects with well-defined requirements. To achieve success, you must have sufficient expertise in project management and be willing to take control of the process.
What are the benefits?
With a dedicated team, you exert full control over the project budget and development process. This helps save time and resources on hiring IT staff, results in strong commitment on your teamโ€™s part, and ensures tight security and IP protection.

This approach, particularly suited for the Waterfall methodology, ensures that all project details are clearly defined and agreed upon before development commences. By following precise time and cost estimates, this approach enables efficient and accurate project management.

How does it work?

Before starting the development process, we conduct a series of in-depth interviews with you to discover all the nuances of the project. Together with our team, you define use cases, create user stories, and prepare wireframes and mockups to help visualize the future user interface. The deliverables here include a detailed technical specification, estimates, development roadmap, and a clickable prototype. After that moment, these cannot be changed without a major disruption to a project, which will require repeating the process again.

When is it best used?
When you have detailed specifications and project requirements are not likely to change mid-development. The same goes for projects with limited budgets or strict deadlines. The most frequent use cases for this approach are short-to-medium projects done within several months, like MVP development or a pilot project at the start of long-term cooperation.
What are the benefits?
Due to transparent pricing, the budget can be formed before the development even starts. Clear specifications remove the risk of misunderstandings, so the software is developed according to plan, without mid-project changes, while the process requires less management overhead for you.

When project longevity and resources canโ€™t be estimated precisely upfront, Time and Materials is the best engagement model to choose. Project expenses come from the cost of the man-hours actually worked on the project, as well as the cost of the materials spent and equipment used. As the project is delivered, you pay for the time and resources that go into it.

How does it work?

Once the initial project roadmap is detailed, our team starts working on the project. We have a polished workflow with daily/weekly reporting, and we charge clients for the hours worked by every specialist.

When is it best used?
When specific time estimates cannot be formulated and only a rough project draft is available, deadlines are not established, and there is a high chance the project requirements will change mid-development, the project is aimed at rapidly shifting markets, or uses innovative tech.
What are the benefits?
Due to increased workflow flexibility, features can be easily added or deducted from the scope of the project within the set budget. Schedule flexibility enables moving the deadlines and paying for features upon delivery. Project costs are also reduced, as the outstaffing company does not have to overprice for risks.
