Tech companies are expected to keep up with the ever-changing market, trends, and emerging technologies on a near-continuous basis. The question is how? Read on to learn how in-house engineering teams can leverage outsourcing for support and scalability.
A recent Enterprise Technology Research survey of 1,000 CIOs found that 10% of CIOs have decided to make permanent cuts to their budgets. Regardless of budget cuts, there's no indication that projects are slowing down.
While engineering teams are no strangers to budget cuts, the impact of 2020 has brought unprecedented changes across the business landscape. More than ever, traditional in-house software engineering teams need support.
Most engineering teams aren't experts in all methodologies or all programing languages, it's not scalable. The only way to keep up requires expertise across multiple languages and methodologies. It's not realistic to expect in-house teams to be experts across all things engineering.
Software development team leads lean on the methodologies, languages, skillsets, and talent available to them. If project needs and an in-house team's talent and skillsets don't always align, this can leave team leads feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place.
When a project's requirements don't quite fit the development team's abilities, projects and institutions may experience significant cost overruns, a huge change log, or even failure of projects. Most organizations have a 70% project failure rate. Rarely a reflection of the team, when projects fail it's usually a reflection of how quickly companies and teams need to pivot to address the issues at hand.
It's important to foster growth and have internal teams stay up-to-date on their skillsets and trends. Your in-house team has organizational knowledge and by working with outsourced teams, in-house engineers can focus on core projects and products.
It's important to focus time and money on what's needed most. Outsourcing helps in-house teams focus while also being flexible enough to address requirement or scope changes.
