Outsourcing and IT Consulting
Outsourcing is very popular among businesses that concentrate on the maximum ROI. Some of the most important benefits of outsourcing include reduced labor costs, faster and better services, time zone advantage, and more. In outsourcing, we usually differentiate between offshoring and nearshoring. Offshore software development means hiring software vendors overseas while nearshoring expects hiring developers from nearby countries.

One of the main advantages of CodeRiders is its well-organized expertise that leads to high results. Let us have a quick view of what we offer and how we work.
-
Medium and senior-level software engineers
As mentioned our employees have been working with us since the early years of the company, thus they know all the tactics for effective co-operation within the team. They make sure the code complies with the client’s standards. This is the reason Our CTO usually checks it as well before passing it to the client. This results in the minimum bugs and frees our clients from torturing back and forth chats to find out the possible problems.
Communication is important for partnership success. This is vital and challenging especially for remote partnerships and offshore software development. We offer working via several business management platforms for flexible communication. These platforms include Trello, Jira, Slack, and more. A typical day of our developers starts with a quick call with the clients, where they discuss the completed tasks, problems, and what should be done. We also have project managers and business development specialists at hand who can join the project. Check out this short animation video showing a typical morning with CodeRiders.
Another advantage of CodeRiders is its openness to various partnership models. For example, besides a remote team, you can hire individual dedicated software engineers, project managers, business development managers, product managers, etc.
We are based in Armenia and offer services with less exaggerated prices that are competitive with other software development agencies based for example the in USA, Canada, Australia, Northern and Southern Europe, Central Asia.
Besides building the software solution, we also help to determine the proper hosting, licensing, and distribution mechanism for it. Our IT professionals deploy and host your software whether it is an internal, shared, dedicated, or cloud system.
On the other hand, CodeRiders’ large talent pool enables us to hire skilled professionals very quickly from our alumni database.
We also work with industry-standard outsourcing models
Project-based
This model is especially convenient for those who find staff management and price variations a headache. The good news is if you know exactly what you want with a fixed project and delivery deadlines, this model will certainly work for you. In this case, the documentation and final agreement are totally fulfilled and fixed before the project start. The project is divided into several milestones during which we provide ongoing demos, discuss your needs and implement the solutions accordingly. The minimum upfront costs are agreed on beforehand. All you need to do is to fill up a short scope of work document explaining your purpose, your needs, and requirements to receive the time, price estimates from your software vendor beforehand.

Time and material (T&M)
During the time and material model, you pay for the time and resources involved in the project. This model is used when there is no clear picture of the product, thus it is impossible to divide the software outsourcing process into milestones or stages. As the T&M model is highly negotiable, the payment can be based on hourly, weekly, or monthly ways. This model is ideal if:
-
- You don’t have fixed price requirements or defined specifications,
- You need a flexible team,
- You change your tasks or may need changes during the software development and implementation process,
- You want constant and direct control throughout the whole cooperation process with your software vendor,
- Your project is connected with evolving markets and untested facilities.
The agile model falls into the time and material software development methodology. For example, our cooperation with Dwel private family cloud software for lifestyle management was based on agile methodology.
Staff augmentation
The staff augmentation method is known as a flexible outsourcing strategy. This model helps you hire tech talents worldwide and manage your remote team effectively and directly. During the staff augmentation model, the client evaluates the existing staff, selects an offshore software development team or dedicated developers, and states which additional skills are required.
Your Custom Model
You are always welcome to mix these models and choose the one that is most suitable for you. After all, the final goal of these remote working strategies is to ensure high-level cooperation. Having satisfied clients in our mind, we are always ready to adjust to the software development engagement model that is convenient for you.
No matter in which stage of the business development lifecycle you are in. We are always happy to give free consultations, identify the issue, give a solution, and start the actual software development and implementation process.
