Staff augmentation adds skilled professionals to your existing team, working under your direction, in your processes and tools. You keep control of the work and priorities; we find the people, handle the engagement details and support everyone involved.
The problems Staff Augmentation solves.
Skilled professionals who join your team under your direction, for as long as needed.
The team is capable but overloaded.
A specific skill is missing for an upcoming phase of work.
Outsourcing a whole project would mean losing control.
Hiring permanent staff for a temporary need isn't sensible.
What Staff Augmentation covers.
Capacity planning
Working out the skills, seniority and duration you need.
Fast matching
Finding professionals who fit the team's stack and ways of working.
Integration support
Onboarding into your tools, rituals and codebase.
Flexible scaling
Adding or reducing people as the work changes.
Engagement management
Contracts, timesheets and regular check-ins.
Knowledge transfer
Documentation and handover at the end of an engagement.
Staff augmentation or a managed team?
Both add capacity. The difference is who directs the work day to day.
| Model | You manage | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| Staff augmentation | Daily priorities and delivery; we handle sourcing, contracts and replacements. | Teams with strong technical leadership that need more hands. |
| Managed team | Outcomes and priorities; the team lead handles day-to-day delivery. | Projects where you lack in-house leadership for that skill set. |
| Project delivery | Requirements and acceptance only. | Well-defined pieces of work with a fixed scope. |
Why it's worth it.
Control
Work stays under your direction and in your processes.
Speed
Add capacity faster than through permanent hiring.
Targeted skills
Bring in exactly the expertise a phase of work needs.

Staff Augmentation questions.
How is staff augmentation different from outsourcing?
With augmentation, people join your team and you direct the work. With outsourcing, a partner owns delivery of an agreed outcome. We can support either; for project delivery see our cloud and AI services.
Can augmented staff use our tools and follow our processes?
Yes, that's the point. They work in your tools, attend your ceremonies and follow your standards.
How quickly can people start?
It depends on the skills and availability in the market. We give a realistic estimate after the intake and update you as the search progresses.
