Assignment Based Developer Hiring

With Assignment-Based Hiring, you engage our company to undertake your project instead of hiring a specific developer. The cost structure is determined by the assignment and its scope, with requirements and quality benchmarks defining the assignment's parameters. The cost remains fixed unless there are changes to the scope. A project may consist of one or more assignments, and it's possible to employ both dedicated and assignment-based approaches within the same project.

Point 1

Cost Remains FIXED Unless Scope Changes

This is the most risk-free hiring model, as the cost remains fixed until the scope changes. If you know what you need, can define the scope and it will remain unchanged, go for it.

Point 2

Payments are Scheduled with Milestone to Meet

All payments except the first will be connected to meeting a milestone. So our investment, so the risk in the project is always higher than yours. So it will be our responsibility to deliver.

Point 3

Your Regular Availablity is Not Required

Your regular involvement will not be required once you have defined your requirements correctly. Everything will be in the cloud. So whatever you need, you can do in your comfort

Point 4

Quality Claim Based on Facts

We have a QA team, and we will define the quality in the form of test cases. You can see those test cases and QA reports. Unlike others, we do not claim out of nothing.We will define the quality and deliver it.

Point 5

Project Management & Telemetry Tracking

You can manage the project with the world's #1 project management software, Jira. Moreover, we have telemetry tracking, which will guide us and also tell us if something is wrong.

  • You hire us to complete your project assignment(s). You do not hire a specific developer. You will provide the full scope of the assignment(s), and then we will agree on the cost and estimate to complete the assignment. Any change or addition to the scope will add additional cost.
  • Remote and Scheduled
  • In installment based on milestones
  • 10.30 AM to 8 PM IST - It can be adjusted as per convenience, an average of 8.30 hours a day excluding lunch hours
  • Skype, Slack, Email, Phone etc.
  • Scheduled availability of developers as required
  • Waterfall and/or with Part Agile
  • Agile-Scrum-DevOps. Every day, there will be a scrum plan on what was done yesterday, what will be done today and the impediments. Work report at day end.
  • Jira / Trello / Any Project Management tool you prefer
  • Through Bi24x7. A Cloud-based Business Intelligence and Telemetry Tracking System. It provides live team and individual work and their work performance reports. It also manages milestones and project documents, demos, diagrams & deliverables. It sends a notification reminding us of any critical event. It sends alerts when something is wrong. That can be in the system or the team. You can initiate a retro to improve the process. It simply helps you to make informed decisions.
  • On payment of first installment as agreed

Assignment-Based Hiring - When to Use (or Not to Use)

This hiring model is ideal for a project where you can hand over the entire requirement before the development. It is good for some projects and bad for others. Let's have a look.

You can define the requirement early

You Can Define the Requirement Early

The first crucial criterion for Assignment-Based hiring is you know your requirement well, you can define it, you or someone on your behalf can document it, and the developers can convert it into a software application without involving you much.

Small project based on simple concept

Small Project Based on Simple Concept

If the project is small and the concept is simple, you likely can define it well. You can think of the project screens, activity flows, and associated logic. So, converting it into a SRS document may not be difficult before the actual development starts.

You do not need improvement in the middle

You Do not Need Improvement in the Middle

Suppose the project-based unknown facts, and you are pretty sure there will be no change in the screens, associated logic and quality benchmarks after you have documented them into an SRS document. In that case, you can go for Assignment-Based Hiring.

Cms or other template based web projects

CMS or Other Template Based Web projects

Usually, most CMS and e-commerce-based projects can be developed using some half-cooked visual templates, plugins and defined workflows. The development workflows are also straightforward. So the need for difficult internal changes is not required once it is done well in advance.

Steriotype part of an agile project

Steriotype Part of an Agile Project

Every project has some tasks that can be defined well in advance, so although the main project follows an agile framework, a particular part can be done using Assignment-Based Hiring. Say building the CMS, website or integration with common-party cloud systems.

Your regular availability is in question

Your Regular Availability is in Question

Agile development requires the regular availability of the product owner. A product owner says the last word on any requirement. If you or your assigned product owner cannot give time to explore and clarify requirements, it is better to cut down the requirements and go for Assignment-Based Hiring.

Not suitable for product system development

Not Suitable for Product / System Development

Software System/Product Development is a process of creating knowledge. And it requires the thoughtful involvement of respective experts over time. Killer ideas only come once the product owners see them visually. This may not be possible in the early stage of development.

Not suitable if early estimate is not possible

Not Suitable if Early Estimate is not Possible

Assignment-based hiring is not suitable for any projects that use new ideas, new technologies or anything that requires extensive studies and R&D because early estimation in these projects is not possible so no question of fixed cost.

Why NOT Hire A Freelancer

Diverse expertise

Diverse Expertise

Our company has a diverse team of professionals with expertise in different areas. This means that no matter what your project requires, we have the skills to handle it. This is a significant advantage over a freelancer, who may only specialize in one area. With us, you have access to a broad range of skills, ensuring the highest quality work regardless of the task.

Stable availability

Stable Availability

One of the benefits of working with us is our reliable availability. Unlike freelancers who work on their schedules, we operate during regular business hours, ensuring there's always someone available to assist you. Our team structure also allows us to have backup personnel available if the primary contact is unavailable, providing continuity and reliability in our service delivery.

Enhanced accountability2

Enhanced Accountability

We uphold a high level of professionalism and are accountable for our work. We have established protocols and a dedicated team to handle each project professionally. If there are any issues, we take full responsibility and work swiftly towards a resolution. Our company's reputation depends on our clients' satisfaction, making us a dependable choice for your project needs.

Scalability

Scalability

We are better equipped to handle growth and adapt to changing needs. If your business expands or your project requirements change, we can scale our services accordingly. This flexibility ensures that no matter how your business evolves, we can provide consistent, quality service, which might not be possible with a freelancer.

Long term stability

Long-term Stability

Choosing our company ensures long-term stability for your project. Freelancers may change careers or become unavailable, but companies are designed for longevity. We are committed to providing ongoing services and support, making us a reliable choice for your long-term needs.

Multiple points contact

Multiple Points of Contact

Working with us means you have multiple points of contact. If your main contact is unavailable, there are others who can assist you, ensuring your project never comes to a standstill. This is a significant advantage over working with a freelancer, where the unavailability of the individual could halt your project.

Saftey security privacy

Saftey, Security & Privacy

Hiring a developer from us ensures better safety, security, and privacy due to strict compliance with legal, ethical, and professional standards. We have dedicated security protocols, data handling policies, and confidentiality agreements that mitigate risks. Freelancers normally don't bother with all these potentially compromising your project's safety and privacy.

Control on developer

Control On Developer

You have little control over any freelancer. You have no control over whether or not they are working for other clients simultaneously using another PC. Or using your code or ideas to develop your competitor's site. When you hire through us, all these risks are zero as they will work from our office. Even if they work from home, we can catch them if they do something illegal.

Assignment-Based Hiring - How does it work?

Here is the flow diagram of how Assignment-Based Hiring Works.

01

Create Your Project Requirement

For any assignment-based project, you should clearly define what you need from the start, including all requirements and acceptance criteria. Remember, making changes or adding new requirements later could be very costly.

02

Proposal for Development

We will review what you need and provide a proposal that includes the cost estimate, quote, timelines, and payment schedule. We will also explain our assumptions and identify any risk factors. Any changes in these requirements or assumptions could lead to extra costs and delays.

03

Sign the Deal

Once we reach an agreement, we will draft a formal service agreement. This document will detail our working methods, daily tasks, essential legal information, intellectual property rights, and mutual concerns. We will then finalise our agreement.

04

Project Start

Are you ready to start with us? As agreed, we'll ask for a deposit to prepare our team, book your project's place, and set a start date. Let's get going! We set the project environment, project management environment, testing environment, staging environment, etc.

05

The Core Development Process

We will develop your project using the waterfall model. The main steps are analysis and modelling, POCs & solutions, coding, debugging, and testing. We will put together a team of developers with varied skills as needed. They will carry out the tasks and perform all necessary validations and verifications according to your requirements and acceptance criteria.

06

User Acceptance Testing

After we complete development and all checks, we'll conduct User Acceptance Testing (UAT). If you find that the product needs to meet your requirements, we will make the necessary changes. An additional charge will be based on the actual or estimated hours required for any new additions or existing modifications.

07

Project Delivery

Once the features have passed UAT on the staging server, they will undergo final integration testing and be ready for delivery. We can deliver on a live or a staging server, depending on our agreement. Be aware that any delays on your part in the launching process may result in additional costs.

08

Billing & Payments

We bill according to the milestones we have completed. Any changes to or new requirements, should be included in new milestones and not affect the current billing cycle. Payments should be made within fifteen days of issuing the invoice.

Frequently Asked Question

Please check the FAQs below for your questions. If you don't find what you're looking for, feel free to submit a query or contact us via email, Skype, or mobile.

1. I have an idea for software, but I'm not skilled at programming. Can you help me turn it into a functional product?

Certainly! You don't need to be a tech wizard to bring your idea to life. We can flesh out your concept through a software requirement and specification document (SRS), a prototype, and a software model, ultimately transforming it into a practical product that fulfils your needs. However, you (or someone representing you) must have a clear vision of what you wish to create, including the concept's purpose, its intended users, and the reasons for its use. Additionally, you should be ready to answer our questions and have the time and patience to review features as they are prototyped or developed.

Yes, we're here to support you. You're not alone; developing requirements is vital in the software development lifecycle. According to the Lean Software Development principle, creating software is about generating knowledge. The more you understand your business needs, the better your chances of success. This is achievable when someone familiar with software intricacies thoroughly examines your business goals and ideas, offering various ways to integrate your concepts into a software solution in an easily understandable manner.

We will undertake this task by engaging in friendly discussions and transforming your idea into an interactive prototype that resembles the envisioned software. Following this, our focus will shift to integrating specific business logic into the software during later development stages.

In new concept-driven software projects, you're likely to initially provide only about 10-15% of the requirements. To define the rest, you must envision the proposed system from both user and business perspectives, discerning what's necessary and what isn't. Prototyping with minimal investment is the most effective way to do this.

Without a prototype, there's a high risk of overlooking essential data and opting for features that only add marginal value to the minimum viable product (MVP). Software dynamics suggest that 20% of features deliver 80% of the value. Thus, incorporating the top 20% of functionalities contributing 80% of the value is crucial for business success. Skipping this step increases the risk of developing an inappropriate system, necessitating significant revisions later on, which could result in unmanageable delays and, ultimately, discarding the system.

We're eager to help. However, before proceeding with an agreement, we'd like to review the project's functionalities, database, technologies, and any existing documents to ensure we can meet your expectations and make you a satisfied client.

Absolutely. It's essential, however, to choose a dedicated developer. You'll manage the project, including daily planning and oversight of work and reports. Our role will be limited to performing automated and semi-automated checks through our systems without directly supervising the developer's daily tasks.

Software development often sees 20% of critical tasks consuming 80% of the time. Typically, we conduct proof of concept (POC) for these critical tasks early in the project to avoid surprises later. Nevertheless, if these crucial tasks still need to be correctly identified and addressed early on, the final 10% could take longer than expected. Restarting might be wise if foundational elements like requirement development and system design were flawed.

Yet, if delays are due to resource issues or other external factors, and provided there are comprehensive documents and diagrams, we might be able to pick up where we left off.

The number of developers you need depends on the project's scope, size, and complexity. For small projects, a single dedicated developer might suffice for support tasks. However, introducing new features or making significant changes might require additional expertise. For innovative concept-based projects, you'll likely need a team of specialists as you can't expect an architect to do the mason's work, like constructing a building. While a single developer can make significant contributions, achieving the best results often requires a collaborative effort from various experts.

My short answer is no, even for an above-average developer. Developing a new software application, whether for the web, cloud, mobile, desktop, or blockchain, involves various tasks. Some tasks are analytical and require full-time dedicated effort, others are creative, some need extreme focus and problem-solving skills, and some require ongoing attention or patience. One person is unlikely to excel in all these areas, as they often require mutually exclusive human traits. While a single developer can create your application, it may lack certain aspects critical to business success. Moreover, it's not cost-effective for developers to perform tasks outside their expertise, such as creative design, leading to inefficiencies in time and quality across different areas like software architecture, design, and testing.

Your involvement will vary depending on the chosen project type and hiring model. With controlled agile development, you'll need to be deeply involved in the initial requirement development and user acceptance testing (UAT) phases and moderately so during the middle stages of the process. However, this can be scheduled at your convenience. If you hire a dedicated developer and manage the project yourself, Will you provide support after the project is delivered? You'll likely need daily involvement to plan, clarify tasks, supervise, and test developments.

We're committed to offering long-term support after your project is delivered. We aim to maintain a lasting relationship with you, and I'll be here for you unless you decide otherwise. Being a smaller company allows us to focus more closely on our clients, who have been with us for years, a testament to our dedication to long-term partnerships and support.

We begin by breaking down development activities into tasks that experts with the right skills can accomplish. We then estimate the hours needed to complete these tasks, considering the functional requirements and quality benchmarks. While we strive for accuracy, we acknowledge that our estimates may sometimes be spot on. Early-stage requirement elicitation and solid software design can significantly reduce the risk of exceeding our estimates by more than 20%, assuming no significant changes mid-development.

This depends on the hiring model. For fixed-fee projects under a controlled agile model, where the basic requirements remain unchanged, the cost stays the same even if our estimate increases due to requirement changes or improvements that add value to your product. For other models, the risk is on your side, offering you complete freedom to manage the project and developers as you see fit.

We aim to deliver on time for controlled agile hiring, potentially adding more resources if necessary. However, for agile development in general, we cannot guarantee this because initial requirements might only cover 10-15% of the full scope. Software development is an iterative process of knowledge creation; the more involved you are, the more your understanding of the project scope may expand, leading to increased development time and a higher chance of success.

We prioritise quality from the start, aiming to minimise the risk of defects in new developments. This involves thorough requirement exploration, expert-driven technical solutions, addressing acceptance criteria directly in code, and selecting appropriate tools, technologies, and frameworks. This approach helps prevent common errors and ensures the system's reliability and performance.

Active involvement is the best way to ensure quality. By participating in the project and contributing your insights when needed, you can see firsthand that the right processes are in place and that your input is being considered. Additionally, requesting test cases and reports can provide a tangible measure of our testing and quality assurance practices.

Unfortunately, no. Many companies assure quality without a precise definition, which can be misleading. Proper testing involves developers and dedicated testers who can independently verify the application against detailed test cases. While we encourage a comprehensive testing approach for all projects, we offer planning and setup of testing workflows at no extra cost, with actual testing services available for an additional fee if extra resources are required.

Your intellectual property rights are safeguarded through a service agreement. Any code, concepts, or services developed specifically for you are your property. However, pre-existing codes, technologies, or libraries used in your project remain the property of their original developers. However, you will have the right to use or modify them as needed under the terms of our agreement and any necessary licenses.

It is against our professional ethics. We have worked for overseas software companies since 2009, and none can claim that such has happened. It has not happened or will not occur even if we do not have legal agreements that address such points. However, to be safer, I suggest having it in the service agreement between us.
