At Saggezza, we have combined years of successful experience in software development to satisfy the changing requirements of our clients. Through experience & client feedback gained over several engagements, we've evolved three flexible engagement models that allow our global clients to have a combination of the control they would normally have over a resident team, allied with the cost advantage of offshore and model that would fit their diverse requirements.

Onsite Development
Onsite development activities are executed at the client premises where typically the responsibility of providing the development environment and infrastructure lies with the client. The project management ownership can be jointly owned or solely by either party.
Well-suited for

• business consulting (strategy study, business model, ROI analysis etc.)
• a rapidly changing business environment
• a new technology is used
• staff augmentation engagement
• planning and design of offshore engagement projects
• short-term engagements

Distributed Development
In this model, tasks are distributed between an onsite team at the client site and an offsite team at one of our development centers. The offsite team is an extension of the onsite team, and works on the same development environment, remotely connected through VPN or a leased line. Throughout the Software Development lifecycle, there is day-to-day interaction between onsite and offsite teams.

Well-suited for:

• the scope is well defined
• the processes and policies are well defined
• there is significant customer interaction
• there knowledge transfer from customer is not very high

Dedicated Development and Testing Center (DDC)
We offer this model to our strategic clients. In this model, teams are dedicated to the client at both onsite and offsite locations for use on specific client projects. Typically, the offsite location is a development center in India although we have DDC models supported in internationally as well.

This model is applicable when the sizes of teams start exceeding 50 persons, and also when a dedicated team is required to work on a diverse set of applications across a common set of technologies. It has the increased development breadth of a dedicated offshore infrastructure with the client's development environment replicated; and round the clock development - taking advantage of the time differences around the globe.
