A TRUE PARTNERSHIP MODEL
Best Profile Match
You decide — carefully select the best people to match your IT & engineering needs, language requirements and company culture.
Stay In Control
We build bridges not walls— our engineers work as part of your cross-border organization while we take care of all supporting services.
Working Your Way
We follow your preferences – from tools, policies, processes, methodologies, up to company culture and style.
Open Book Pricing Model
We create trustful relations—an open-book transparent costing and pricing model as cornerstone for a successful partnership.
No Lock-In
No volume requirements, no exit fees—start small, experience working together and scale-up down your dedicated team as you go.
Create Your Affiliate Company
We build your nearshore company – optionally spin-off your team as a full-owned affiliate company and run your own nearshore service center.
