Engagement Models: Dedicated Team, Project-Based or On-Demand
CML Team works in three engagement models. Dedicated teams add our engineers to your in-house team, and they report to your project manager or tech lead. In project-based development our own project manager runs the project from requirements to launch. On-demand services bring in DevOps, design or QA specialists only when you need them.
Dedicated Teams
Our engineers join your in-house team, follow your processes and report to your project manager or tech lead.
Project-Based Teams
We run your project end to end, from requirements and planning to launch, with our own project manager.
On-Demand Services
Add DevOps, design or QA expertise for short-, medium- or long-term needs, without full-time hires.
Dedicated Team vs Project-Based vs On-Demand
How the three engagement models compare
| Criterion | Dedicated Teams | Project-Based Teams | On-Demand Services |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Companies with an in-house development team that need skills or domain expertise that are hard to find on-site | Companies that lack the time or proper project management expertise in-house | Startups and in-house teams that need DevOps, design or QA help from time to time rather than a full-time hire |
| Who manages the team | Your project manager or tech lead; a CML Team People Manager and HR support the team | A CML Team project manager, who keeps you updated through regular meetings, planning sessions and status reports | CML Team provides the management; our specialists integrate with your team and processes |
| How to start | You interview candidates from our pool; we first screen their skills and domain knowledge | A free estimate and feedback on your idea; after the agreement, the team is ready in a few weeks | Specialized expertise when you need it, with no long-term commitment |
| Duration | Set by your project plan, objectives and target delivery dates; if requirements change, our HR steps in immediately | From requirements gathering and planning to product launch | Short, medium or long term, as issues arise |
