What is a dedicated development team
A dedicated development team is made up of developers who devote all their time to a single project. The team will allocate its full resources to your project until it's completed. All members have individual responsibilities and tasks, as well as specific roles. A dedicated software development team should fit into the organizational structure of your company.
How does a dedicated team work
A dedicated team works together towards a common goal – meeting your needs and delivering high-quality software on time. It is a widely used outsourcing approach that enables companies with existing products or technical expertise to expand their development effort. Our developers can work as a stand-alone department or complement an existing team.
Dedicated development teams are comprised of individuals with unique talents who work together to form an effective unit. Each member has their own role, but they also share responsibility for each other’s success.
Dedicated teams are usually organized in one of two ways:Full-time:
All of the developers work together full-time for an agreed-upon amount of time (e.g., 6 months).
Mixed:
There are both full-time and temporary members who are brought on only when their skills or expertise is required. And, if the project requires a quick capacity scaling (i.e., expansion) of the team, it can do so without sacrificing quality work by drawing from its bank of the available talent pool.

How to hire a dedicated development team
If your product is software based or has a software component, it is inevitable that you will need to hire dedicated development teams at some point or another. As we discussed earlier, there are many reasons why hiring a dedicated software development team can help you with the goals of your business, and here we will cover aspects you need to consider when you hire development teams.
If you're looking to hire a dedicated development team, it’s important that they meet the following criteria:
- They have a proven track record in the
industry. - They have a relevant background
working with clients like you. - Ensure that their experience matches your company culture,
product stage, and project needs. - The best teams are those that have the right set of skills,
processes, and tools to help them work efficiently. They are
also proactive and self-organized.
Hiring a project development team means that your project is being looked after by capable and experienced developers, who are focused on your product. And the longer the dedicated developers work on the project, the higher is their performance due to implementing their knowledge and skills from previous experience in the industry, complemented by the insights gained on your project.
Fully outsource a development team or do a team augmentation
When it's time to hire a development team we offer two popular options, outsourcing development teams entirely or augmenting an existing team.
The fully outsourced approach presumes that you have no developers on your side. This means the client is responsible for providing business and tech requirements, has an implementation strategy, and may have a technical lead working with an external partner(s), but not the team of developers who perform day-to-day work.
The team augmentation model assumes that you already have some developers on your side, so in this case, the goal would be to augment those existing resources with additional ones you are missing. This could include determining which positions are best to outsource and setting up processes for effective collaboration among all participants.
