Build Your Software Team (A Dream Team) At a Price You Can Afford

Building a Software Team That Suits Your Needs

Imagine having the resources you need to satisfy your software development, support and maintenance needs? Imagine a universe where you don’t have to recruit, interview and house a software development team to fulfill your vision for a consumer or business application? What if you could have the right resources available at the right time without having to wait for your team (or an IT partner) to find the time to address your needs or ideas?

‘A Build Your Own Team approach assures that the business has the skills, knowledge, resources and access it needs to complete its project on a timely basis. This personalized approach is not simply a staffing, recruitment or shared workspace approach.’

CIO.com recently published research that outlines the primary reasons for project failure. Among the top reasons for failure, they list two primary factors relating to resources:

Not Enough Resources

Underestimating the resources and talent required to do the work and the amount of work required to complete the project.

Inexperienced Teams

Failure to provide experienced project managers and specific skills and talents required to complete the project.

Even if your business has a skilled in-house IT team, it is likely that they are already overwhelmed by existing projects, support, and maintenance of the existing infrastructure. Add to that the fact that new technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), and new platforms, frameworks, coding techniques, and other factors can make it nearly impossible to keep your staff trained and sustain the skills you need to address every requirements.

But when your business needs software and application development help, it is often difficult to find a service provider that will satisfy all business needs and do so in a timely, skilled fashion. If a business chooses the wrong service provider, it is likely to face one or more of the following issues:

  • Cookie-cutter solutions and teams that provide some, but not all, of the skills required to support business needs.
  • Delays in achieving milestones because the right resources are not available at the right time.
  • Inflexible team and resource availability to address changing or evolving requirements leads to uncertain results.
  • Out-of-date or incomplete skillsets.
  • The need to find, interview and select a vendor, sign contracts and establish relationships for each new project.
  • Resource instability. Changes and disruption in the team demand re-training, and result in lost resource skills and project knowledge.
  • Failure to protect Intellectual Property (IP), Data and User Privacy.

And even if you CAN find a vendor or partner with the right skills, many businesses report delays and gaps in the actual delivery of completed projects. A skilled developer may be pulled from your project to satisfy another client and, when it is time for that developer to work on your project, they may not be available. You may find that the vendor is unavailable on certain days or during certain hours because of time zone differences or project overload.

Don’t Add IT Resources, Add an IT Partner!

When Your IT Needs Outstrip Your Team, Look for a Partner!

If your business is anything like your competition, your IT team is overwhelmed with ongoing activities, with special projects, reporting, maintenance and other activities that seem to take up every minute of the day. If a business manager or an executive wishes to undertake an application development project to improve business productivity, or a consumer application development project to increase revenue, or a major technology infrastructure project to improve, and enhance performance, scalability, security or other factors within the organization, your IT team is likely too busy to accommodate the need.

Even if they CAN find time to execute these tasks, the projects may require specialized skills that your team does not possess. In that case, the enterprise will have to expand its IT facilities to accommodate the new team members they must recruit, hire and pay. And what is to become of these team members when the project is finished? Will the organization still need their services, or will the enterprise be forced to contract its team again, leaving it with expensive facilities space it does not need?

Such are the challenges of a small or medium sized business owner. The fact is that your vision, your dream may be compromised by the inability to staff your projects. And that isn’t the only risk. If your business is expanding or must meet competitive response, it may be at risk of falling short if it cannot staff those crucial projects.
