Delivery Models
When it comes to working with a offshore partner, the comfort
level and preferences may vary from client to client. Indonet
totally appreciates this fact and is comfortable working on
various models as explained below
- Onsite
- Offshore
- Hybrid
- ODC
Onsite Model
Indonet can provide IT resources like programmers, Project
managers and technical architects to carry out onsite services.
These resources will be a part of the onsite project team
and would report to the project manager who is part of the
client's organization. The resources can be provided for short
term needs like few months to long term needs of a year or
more.
This model is suitable for projects which call for tighter
coordination, evolving functionality or higher confidentiality.
Offshore Model
This model enables clients to utilize the infrastructure and
manpower of Indonet Global in India to execute their projects.
The onsite model can be a component of the offshore model.
Here, the client provides a clear spec and agree on milestones
with Indonet.
Indonet will be incharge of managing the resources and deadlines
on a total turnkey basis. The client can monitor the progress
through an extranet. In a technically advanced environment
Indonet can also regularly check the code into a version control
server, allowing the client or any third party appointed there
on to review the code.
This way, Indonet can monitor the overall progress, execution,
quality and delivery of the project and meet the customer's
expectations at a much lower cost than a full onsite or a
combination of onsite and offshore model.
Hybrid Model
If a client finds the onsite model costly and the offshore
model too risky he can always settle for a hybrid model, whereby
part of the resources are based onsite enabling the clients
to have a better control over the system and ensuring better
scoping.
Under this model, Indonet can initially deploy resources working
onsite and 3-6 months down the line, carry the remaining work
offshore. Indonet can also carry out the entire programming
work offshore and then undertake training, implementation
and testing onsite at the customer location. Our combination
of onsite and offshore services enable us to use our talent
and technical expertise in the most effective combination
to meet the demands of application development services using
the hybrid delivery model.
Offshore development center ( ODC ) model
This model provides the comfort of a dedicated team but at
far lower cost. Here Indonet will be willing a commit a team
of professionals, approved by the client to work like an extension
of a client's development team. The team will report to a
project manager in the client's organization and follow his
instructions in developing the applications. The team will
be kept physically separate from the rest of Indonet's team
to provide confidentiality. All the expenses of the team will
be bourne by the client, regardless of the volume of the work
and the deadlines.
The ODC concept is beneficial to those clients who are interested
in a long-term association with Indonet. The ODC can be signed
for a period ranging from 1 year or more depending upon the
customer's needs. But the clients can always run a pilot for
2-3 months before signing on a ODC contract.
