Outsourcing Software Development FAQ

• When choosing Staff Augmentation?

  

  There are several major scenarios. Temporary workload increases and a sharp lack of specialized skills are effectively solved by staff augmentation. Project-based initiatives and startups benefit from flexible and rapid workforce sourcing, compared to in-house hiring processes. Staff augmentation also helps in global expansion, allowing fast and cost-effective allocation of development facilities in selected regions.

• Why use Staff Augmentation?

  

  Because it's a cost-effective solution, that doesn't compromise quality. Staff Augmentation helps mitigate skill gaps, especially the lack of experts with certain skills. As well, this approach also provides flexibility in adapting to changing business conditions and tech requirements, so carries fewer risks than in-house hiring.

• How to prepare your team for a Staff Augmentation?

  

  First of all, clearly communicate the reasons behind the decision to opt for staff augmentation. Explain the benefits to the team, such as gaining specialized skills, managing workload fluctuations, or meeting project deadlines more efficiently. Clearly define roles, encourage cultural integration, and address concerns promptly. On UKAD's side, we built a culture that helps our developers fit any team with the smoothness and rapidness of freshly hired personnel or even better so that our collaboration brings decent results.

• How is intellectual property handled with the Staff Augmentation Model?

  

  The Client IP ownership of the product is protected by the agreement, signed before the start. We do not claim any intellectual property created by our developers during staff augmentation projects.

• How do I ensure the security and confidentiality of my project data with an External Staff?

  

  Security and confidentiality of the project's data are protected due to non-disclosure agreements and other documents, as well as technical measures such as wide utilization of VPN connections, zero trust policy, rigorous access control, data encryption and data anonymization.
