Dedicated Teams and Outsourcing

Guides on dedicated teams, staff augmentation, outsourcing models and working with development teams in Vietnam.

About this topic

Choosing how to work with an external team matters as much as choosing the team. This topic compares dedicated teams, staff augmentation, fixed-price projects and outsourcing, and explains what each model means for scope, ownership, communication and cost.

Several guides focus on Vietnam as a delivery location: time-zone overlap with the US, Europe and Australia, how hiring works and how to prepare your product owner, backlog and access so a new team becomes productive quickly.
