Models of establishing ODC

With over three years' experience on offshore software outsourcing, eCleave provides the following basic ODC Management structure for our customers

Customer Managed, Dedicated Offshore Development Center

Under this model, eCleave provides the resources and infrastructure for the customer to manage the ODC by their management at senior level responsible for project management and deliverables. These ODC's adopt the customer specific business practices, processes, methodologies, quality management, and acquisition of technology expertise as per the need of the customer's projects. This model works at a partner level relationship between the customer and eCleave with high level of commitments to ODC from both sides.

Build Operate and Transfer (BOT)

This model is a logical extension to the above model. Under this model, eCleave builds a dedicated ODC for the customer and manages for a certain period and transforms the knowledge of ODC operations to the customer. With predefined schedules, eCleave transfers all the ODC resources, infrastructure, operational knowledge, etc to the customer to operate as an independent entity.

Joint Venture

This model is a pure partnership approach with a long-term understanding, where eCleave and the customer fund the ODC jointly with stake from either side. It is a mutual investment in each other's business and growth.

eCleave Managed, Dedicated Offshore Development Center

Under this model, eCleave manages the resources, infrastructure, projects and deliverables to the customer from the ODC. The Customer allocates tasks and manages reviews. All processes including the development processes and quality management systems and standards are deployed as per eCleave's best practices. However, at every phase eCleave takes the customer's key inputs before implementation.
