Datamatics engages with customers in a variety of ways, depending on the nature of engagement and specific customer needs.
Fixed Price Model: This is the preferred approach when scope of the engagement is well defined and customer's IT department is well skilled.
Time and Material Model: This is the preferred approach when the customer relies on Datamatics for specific knowledge and emerging scope.
Build/Operate/Transfer (BOT) Model: This is the preferred approach when the customer chooses Datamatics as a long-term partner and there is a long-term alignment of certain objectives. Typically, BOTs are cost-plus models and will enable, operate, and transfer within predefined timelines.
Hybrid Models - This is a combination of the models stated above.
Each engagement can be executed using a combination or one of the following ways:
- On-site: Used when rapid turnaround times are expected with plenty of face-to-face team interaction. Higher budgets are available
- Offshore: Used when engagements are of typically larger size, scope is well defined and cost is an important consideration
- Near-shore: Used when the work can be done on shore but offsite option is chosen when clients want to run a help desk or support center within the same locale but outside their premises
- Right-shore: A combination of the above models, usually adopted when a client wishes to start with one model and transition the other extreme over a period of time
