When you hire an offshore development team through Webco Talent, you get full-time developers, QA testers, a business analyst and a project manager who work only on your product, inside your tools and sprint cadence. Every offshore dedicated development team is recruited, employed and managed by Webco Talent in Manila or Colombo, so you add delivery capacity without Australian employer obligations. Need a single engineer first? Start with one of our offshore software developers and grow into a team.
Frontend, backend and full stack developers across React, Node.js, .NET, Python, PHP, mobile and cloud.
Manual and automated testing that catches defects before release. See our dedicated QA testers.
Turns business requirements into clear user stories, acceptance criteria and a groomed backlog.
Runs sprints, standups and reporting so your roadmap ships on time and your team stays aligned.
Optional design capacity for wireframes, prototypes and interface design inside the same team.
Webco Talent handles recruitment, payroll, retention and IT, with a single monthly invoice in AUD.
Every dedicated team includes:
A dedicated team is a self-contained squad working only on your product, staff augmentation adds individual engineers to a team you already manage, and build operate transfer (BOT) sets up an offshore operation that is later handed over to your own entity. Here is how the three models compare for Australian businesses:
| Dedicated team | Staff augmentation | Build operate transfer | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who directs the work | You set priorities; our PM or team lead can run delivery | You manage engineers directly in your team | Provider builds and runs the team, then hands it over |
| Team shape | Cross-functional: developers, QA, BA, PM | Individual roles added to your existing team | Full team plus a local operating entity |
| Best for | Ongoing product development | Filling skill gaps fast | Companies planning their own offshore centre |
| Commitment | Month-to-month, 30 days’ notice | Month-to-month, 30 days’ notice | Typically a multi-year contract |
| Who employs staff | Webco Talent | Webco Talent | Provider first, then your own entity |
| Time to first CVs | 10 business days | 10 business days | Months, including entity setup |
| Replacement cover | 6-Month Replacement Guarantee | 6-Month Replacement Guarantee | Depends on contract |
| End state | Team stays managed; code and IP are yours | Engineers stay managed; code and IP are yours | Team and operation transfer to you |
Verdict: choose staff augmentation for one or two skill gaps, a dedicated team for ongoing product delivery, and BOT only if you plan to own an offshore entity long term. Many teams start with augmentation and grow into a dedicated team on the same terms. Read more on staff augmentation vs outsourcing.
