Team
Extension
Model overview
Team extension, or staff augmentation as it is sometimes called is a type of engagement model that enables business owners to add value to their IT-related projects with the help of external expertise. The model allows customers to reinforce their internal team with experienced software development staff assigned by an outsourcing vendor. With this, the overall project supervision and management are done by customer’s in-house specialists. The Extension Team model is in high demand across organizations in cases when in-house development teams might lack some indispensable skills in software development to fully execute a project. Oftentimes, companies may need some short-duration assistance in terms of adding extra headcount. The model helps businesses engage seasoned software developers and consultants from the outsourcing IT service provider for a predefined (usually, short) period of time. Once workloads increase, the extended team seems to be the perfect option for small and medium-sized businesses to address resource-intensive tasks due to the project’s upscaling complexity.
When to choose the Team Extension model
You are likely to opt for this model if there is a need:
- To deal with an ever-changing scope of work
- To complement any missing skillset of you in-house team
- To improve software development efficiency over short time frames
- To address unexpected time-critical issues
- To avoid hiring and onboarding costs
- To stay in full control of the SDLC (software development life cycle) process
