Our method
Next Generation Outsourcing
The European IT talent market has become too competitive to deliver truly excellent technology teams reliably and quickly. That's why we work with a hybrid offshoring method that has been optimised over the years and is nothing like traditional offshoring:
Analysis
We analyse what is required for the successful delivery of the task at hand in a hybrid offshore model:
-
The complexity of the task at hand
-
Your existing resources
-
Additional resources required, including skills profiles
-
Your maturity level for working with remote teams
-
Coordinated bridgehead approach (communication and delivery)
-
Team development model
Designing the optimal target operating model for your project.
Focus on the top 5% talent
The team is made up entirely of top engineers, who stand out for their skill and dedication. They are almost impossible to find and pay for in Europe. We use offshoring primarily to work reliably with outstanding talent, not to be inexpensive.
-
We use a data-driven process to build very strong teams in a matter of weeks.
-
This requires a very large talent market. That is why we are focusing on India, by far the largest IT talent market in the world.
Providing you with an excellent team for your project.
World-class local management
Our local management team, with over 20 years of experience in the digital economy, ensures high performance and stability by fostering the right culture and providing world-class conditions.
-
The team sees itself as part of your team - thinking along with you, on an equal footing, influenced by European culture, available during European business hours, and very different from what you might expect from traditional outsourcers.
-
A world-class development center, ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certified, comparable to the digital unicorn environment in Europe.
Ensuring high performance and stability.
Leadership by high-calibre CTOs
Highly experienced former CTOs, CPOs, VP Engineering and VP Infrastructure from successful digital companies and unicorns - all based in Europe - are responsible for your projects and team expansions.
-
They understand your specific challenges from their own operational experience. And they've successfully overcome them many times.
-
They think holistically, see the big picture, and find cost-effective solutions.
-
They have been working very successfully with offshore teams in India for years using our methodology.
-
They know how to integrate existing teams in Europe with offshore teams to form ONE team.
Ensuring 100% customer satisfaction.

Field report on the cooperation between 2 portfolio companies and a large international medium-sized company
The challenge: The particularly labor-intensive core processes surrounding the onboarding and scheduling of learners had to be fully automated so that 95% of cases could be processed without human intervention. A self-service option for learners also had to be implemented.
Establishment of a 17-person development team to automate 95% of all relevant business transactions in customer service for a global, medium-sized education provider.
Seven-figure savings
Payback within the first year
The challenge: Adair's founding team had a great idea, but no technical team to turn the idea into a product. The team knew that despite their strong IT network, it would easily take 6-9 months to build a really good development team in Europe.
Delivered a high performance development team for MVP development of a complex SaaS product in record time
Record delivery time
On-time, On-budget
After the global roll-out of the training system, usage rates increased by 80%, with users from over 100 countries. The company risked missing SLAs with large customers due to insufficient 24/7 availability and responsiveness, especially in Asia and Latin America. The infrastructure was not sufficiently scalable, resulting in high server and personnel costs. 24/7 DevOps support became necessary.
Expansion of a top team of cloud experts in just a few weeks
Achieve global high availability (99.999%)
Significant reduction in the total cost of ownership
Challenge: Years ago, Common factor developed its own web conferencing software for a SaaS customer, which had since been neglected. This component was essential for the client, but very risky. It partly used Flash, which soon ended. The software was outdated, the code monolithic, with security vulnerabilities and scaling issues. It also lacked important features such as a mobile app and MS Teams integration.
