Let's talk
What Are Staff Augmentation Services?
IT Staff Augmentation is the outsourcing strategy which involves hiring external tech talent to supplement a company's existing IT workforce temporarily. Instead of recruiting full-time employees, organizations can bring in skilled professionals on a short-term basis to address specific needs, such as project requirements, particular skills gap, or workload fluctuations.
Outsourced developers can work as a part of a hybrid team, where they work hand in hand with the client's employees, or as independent engineers. The team structure, roles and responsibilities depend solely on the project owner. Augmented staff members can be obtained temporarily or for long-term projects. They can work part-time or full-time, depending on the customer's business needs.
