For years organizations have hired in-house developers whether on full-time or contract basis to match the growing deliverables and demands of their clients as well as inhouse needs. However, organizations are finding it more and more difficult to continue the practice given the rising hiring costs combined with the shrinking pool of candidates available locally.

The other option currently available is to bring in external vendors to supplement your internal capabilities. But this is not a long-term solution as it takes away your control over the development process and the team thereby resulting in loss of quality. Also, since the development team is owned by a different organization, there exists a need to maintain a Chinese wall between the client and the developers. This causes a lot of confusion and delays in an otherwise smooth process and requires extra resources to be assigned by you to counter the issues created due to lack of a direct line of communication.
