Outsourcing software development: how to work with a technology partner

A technology partner is an external company that joins an organization's team to develop software, on a project basis or on an ongoing basis, working with its tools, timelines and systems.

When outsourcing makes sense

Common engagement models

What to agree on so it works

  1. 01

    Scope and priorities

    What is expected from each stage and how changes are decided.

  2. 02

    Way of working

    Tools (Jira, Azure DevOps, Planner), meetings, delivery frequency and communication channels.

  3. 03

    Access and security

    Which systems are used, with which permissions and in which environments.

  4. 04

    Confidentiality

    Agreements on client information and, in white-label work, on not mentioning the partner.

  5. 05

    Code ownership

    Who owns what is developed and how it is handed over.

  6. 06

    Documentation

    So the knowledge stays within your company.

  7. 07

    Post-delivery support

    Who handles issues after delivery and within what timeframes.

Signs of a good partner

Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the most common questions on this topic.

Can a technology partner work remotely?

Yes. That is the most common arrangement. What matters is agreeing on channels, overlapping hours and follow-up meetings.

How is it different from hiring freelancers?

A partner brings a team, processes and continuity. If one person is unavailable, the work continues.

Can I outsource only part of the development?

Yes. Many companies outsource integrations or specific modules and keep the rest with their own team.
