Outsourcing IT tech job roles

You might be running or working in a digital agency, an IT managed services organisation, a software house, a mobile app development firm, or an ICT company. Either way, you’re going to have similar staffing requirements that might seem impossible to fulfil locally while trying to scale and grow your profits.

There are many strategies that can help your tech business grow rapidly, however, outsourcing is a smarter resourcing strategy that allows you to hire staff for a significantly lower cost than if you were to recruit locally.

Due to employment costs being up to 70% less, outsourcing provides you with the opportunity to meet your resourcing requirements with less impact to your bottom line. As a result of lower overheads, we’ve seen clients with an increased ability to do things like dramatically improve productivity and accelerate product development. As a result of this, one of our clients experienced a 72% increase in new client acquisition rates.

By adding an outsourcing model to your business, you can bolster business functions such as:

Software and Web Development Roles
IT Support Roles

How to choose the right provider

Start your outsourcing journey off the right way with the right provider. Ensuring you choose the right provider for your business will ultimately determine the success of your journey.

To drill into the operations of any prospective outsourcing provider, start by asking the right questions. This will allow you to get a thorough understanding of their operations, T&Cs, protocols and facilities - remember, no two will ever be the same. Some of these questions may include:

What tools do you have in place to ensure staff members remain online and productive 100% of the time?
Do you operate 24/7?
In regard to information management and data security how do you ensure staff are not using personal devices such as mobile phones and USB drives at workstations?
How do you manage your team’s aspirations to develop their career while, at the same time, ensuring my own business continuity?
What HMO (Healthcare) benefits are your staff eligible for?

This is a crucial step that shouldn’t be overlooked. You need to understand the difference between outsourcing companies so that you can determine which provider meets the specific needs of your business.
