Hiring or utilizing outside personnel temporarily to augment an organization’s capability is called Staff Augmentation.
By using Staff Augmentation services, brands can reduce the payroll service, and project implementation costs. This kind of hiring model is very easy to implement and handle an employment contract.
Types of Staff Augmentation
There are mainly three types of Staff Augmentation.
Skill Based
When there is a need for a skilled, specialist with a specific skill set, where those skills are not critical or essential, those kinds of hiring model is known as Skill-based Staff Augmentation.
Commodity
If there is no demand for a specific skill set, we go with this category known as Commodity augmentation. If the demand is for a reliable employee to perform the tasks or events which don’t need any specific skill we go with this model.
Highly-Skilled
When there is a need for advanced skills, and brand design, which can be acquired only by experience or training. A specific level of skill is needed for this. When such a situation arrives Highly skilled Staff augmentation is necessary.
Staff augmentation can be divided into more categories.
Traditional Staff Providers: When there is a need for temporary laborers, then there is a traditional way of augmenting staff. These kind of temporary staff are good in skill-based commodities and are the best option for non-critical projects which requires very high-level skills. This is the most preferred category since it’s very flexible.
Master Vendor Staff Provider: In this category, there will be only a single vendor who runs the whole augmentation process. This is a very large-scale staffing process. This is best for highly-commoditized work requirements.
Specialized/Boutique Agencies: These are smaller agencies or organizations which target highly specialized and skilled talents. It’s known for its best quality services.
Gig Platforms: This category works online and provides quick access to independent workers. This category is best for task-oriented requirements for more commoditized skillsets. This model is known for its speed and flexibility.
On-demand Talent Platforms: These are also online platforms that can provide highly skilled talents. This is best when we need the talent to be deployed quickly.
Independent Contractors: Independent contractors are engaged directly by organizations.
Staff Augmentation helps you choose suitable candidates that fit the requirements. It is an outsourcing strategy to hire talented and skilled technical sources externally to overcome the lack of talent in an organization. In addition, the provider allows you to get specifically skilled candidates for your development team requirements on a long-term or short-term basis.
Best practices to improve Cooperation in Staff Augmentation model.
Staff augmentation is becoming the most popular outsourcing model among IT industries. Therefore, it will be best practice to follow some guidelines for maximizing the benefits of this model.
Before hiring a developer for the team, there are some things we have to take care of. Communication skills, as well as technical knowledge, are essential considerations.
Every organization will have some kind of work culture they follow. While hiring, selecting those who can work with such a work culture should be considered. The success of any project depends on communication between the local team and the consulting firm.
A dedicated person should be assigned to contact the core business team by the management of the staff augmentation.
When using the Staff Augmentation model, you must be able to add new team members to existing teams. Staff augmentation does not mean that you can outsource entire projects. You must give space for the development process in the right direction, support, and flow.
If the project is growing and there is a need for vendor services, we should contact the outsourcing team as soon as possible. This will allow the recruiter from the vendor side to provide you with services at the right time.
When we get help from an external provider, we will have to deal with all new developers who might need proper knowledge transfer within the projects.
Proper knowledge transfer is essential when new hiring is done within the projects. Since we take help from external providers for the developers, they are mostly unique, so there should be proper knowledge about the new working environment. So, creating support documentation and gathering more information on different phases of the projects can help with onboarding new employees.
If your company hires more than one developer, having a DevOps team in the same office will be beneficial. This can increase security and productivity when your employee is responsible for deployments, etc.
There are many benefits to the staff augmentation model. The most effective way to deal with resource shortage is a short project that needs fast productivity and results with minimal cost.
Besides this model’s benefits, long-term projects have some drawbacks.
