Dedicated team model

The dedicated team model provides a full external team, usually with its own lead, working continuously on one client’s product.

How it works in practice

You define outcomes and priorities; the team owns delivery, ceremonies, and quality. It differs from staff augmentation in that leadership sits with the team rather than with you, and from fixed-price outsourcing in that scope stays flexible while capacity stays fixed.

When it fits

  • →You have no internal engineering leadership with capacity
  • →The product needs continuous work rather than a one-off build
  • →Scope will evolve and a fixed-price contract would fight that

When it does not

  • →You have a strong lead who can direct individuals directly
  • →The work is a short, well-specified project
  • →You are unwilling to delegate technical decisions

What it costs

Priced as a monthly team rate. Expect a 15 to 30 percent premium over raw augmentation, which buys the leadership and delivery layer.

Frequently asked questions

How big should a dedicated team be?

Three to six people usually. Larger teams add coordination cost faster than output, and splitting the work is often the better answer.

Can we take the team in-house later?

It should be planned from the start, with documentation and handover treated as deliverables rather than as an afterthought.
