JD Software’s Global Delivery Model is based on its proprietary Business Aligned Managed Delivery Framework (BAMD) which is based on productivity and communication tools and processes, technology platforms and support systems to ensure work product quality, timely delivery and value to our customer. It also provides complete visibility into the progress of delivery in our development centers thereby mitigating the risks associated with offshoring.
JD Software’s “Outcome Based Delivery” models are designed to suit the different engagement requirements.
As a service buyer, you will want to complete a specific project within its budget and timeline. You do not wish to manage the resources. Fixed Price engagement model gives you minimum risk in such situations.
Under fixed price model, you will provide the scope and timeline. We will send you proposal detailing scope of work, development methodology, project schedule and pricing. Once you approve the proposal, we will engage our technical team for the project. We will send you bi-weekly status. We understand that change is constant, and therefore we will put in place change control mechanism.
In this model, we will deploy required resources at a monthly fee (based on hourly rates). The resources will approximately work for 170 hours in a month. You will provide adequate learning time to the resources to understand your software, processes, and guidelines. The resources will work as per your directions in terms of tasks, schedule, and quality of work. The work will be closely monitored by you. The resources will be available for communication via email, chat, phone, etc. Monthly invoice will be raised for the services rendered by the resources.
The onsite delivery model entails that skilled professionals are deployed on the client’s premises. This delivery model is viable only if fluidity is required in a project, if there is need for a specific resource type or if post-deployment support is imperative. From initial consultation to maintenance and support, our representatives are highly qualified and combine excellent business acumen and strong inter-personal skills.
This model, a combination of both onsite and offshore, is the best of both worlds, and results in optimized costs and maximized efficiency. The onsite team will directly interact with the clients and will serve as consultants, program managers and developers, depending on project requirements. They will do requirement studies, design and development, while interfacing directly with clients. The offshore outsourcing team will interact only with the onsite team and will provide additional crucial support, thereby reducing costs and implementation time. The model allows for scalability and has enormous operational benefits.
ODC Partnership Model aims at creating relationships with customers who seek long-term services. Our model involves the creation of a dedicated offshore development unit comprising engineers who have or built domain expertise in specific areas. This ensures continuity within the project and iterative use of components while continuously upgrading to market requirements and effectively addressing business critical issues like our clients’ time-to-market pressures.
Once the resource demands reach a level that is relatively significant and predictable, it may make sense for Global Takeoff to establish a Dedicated Development Center (DDC) specific to your organization. A DDC provides all of the benefits of an experienced, capable engineering team without some of the common constraints.
We maintain a team that is committed to your projects. This team retains intellectual capital on your technologies and products. Over time, our value to your organization increases as we become more intimate with your products and markets. In fact, many of our customers have benefited from product enhancement suggestions and patents that have been submitted and approved by our engineers for our customers.
Under this model, all project development, from initial study to testing, is executed from our offshore facility. offshore delivery model is beneficial where customer are looking to quickly ramping up the team, reducing the cost, exploiting the advantages of the round the clock working, and/ or reducing risk attached to new product development.
The model works well in scenarios where the objective of the project are well defined and there no or minimum deviation from this during the course of Project Development. The Project Management and communication is the responsibility of the Project managers/ Delivery Managers, who work using well-defined process centric templates and procedures to ensure that delivery is as per schedule.
- Direct dealings with the client: Direct interaction with the client is possible through the onsite center. So no possibility of communication gap. Also the service provider gets a better picture of the client’s needs.
- 24/7 productivity: Round the clock continuous work cycle becomes possible by making the best possible use of the time-zone difference.
- Access to the most excellent resources: Client can have access to the best technology, skilled manpower and equipment possible made available to them by the offshore development center.
- Great cost benefits: Cost savings resulting from majority of the work being outsourced to the offshore development center where the resources are comparatively cheaper.
- Best possible management of resources: Usage efficiency of resources is highest with this model.
