Challenge

Navigating Rapid Expansion Amidst COVID-19

The client faced an influx of urgent projects in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis. Tasked with delivering critical projects to various Fortune 500 companies across industries such as healthcare and sports, the client needed to put together tech teams rapidly to tackle these time-sensitive, data-intensive projects. Catching the momentum was crucial.

The traditional vendor providers they usually relied upon couldn’t meet the dynamic needs of the company. Although accessible, traditional vendors offered limited access to the in-demand tech expertise the client required. Relying on them would mean prolonged hiring processes, extended timelines, and delayed progress on key initiatives. Slow responses from the vendors further exacerbated the issue, which threatened the client's ability to maintain its competitive edge.

The specific projects in question demanded a more flexible, quicker staff augmentation solution. They needed a solution that could offer the agility and scalability the client needed to quickly assemble teams of senior tech talent that would be ready to contribute immediately to the time-sensitive projects at hand.

Adeva - a Strategic Partner That Offers Quick and Flexible Staff Augmentation

Through a recommendation by a former client, which the client company had recently acquired, Adeva was found as the ideal solution. Adeva stood out as a strategic partner whose global talent network offered quick and flexible staff augmentation that surpassed the capabilities of traditional vendors.

Adeva's selection as the preferred solution was influenced by multiple factors. Firstly, Adeva had a deep understanding of the client’s technical and strategic sourcing needs. Its global network spanned 40 countries, which guaranteed access to a diverse pool of expert talent. Every professional in Adeva's network is verified for their technical prowess and dedication to solving complex issues, as well as their high standards of integrity, professionalism, and communication.

Flexibility was another pivotal reason for choosing Adeva. The client company valued the ability to adjust the scale of their teams based on project demands. Adeva's model allowed for choosing between part-time or full-time engagements, with the flexibility to modify these arrangements as needed. This adaptability meant the client could hire top-tier tech consultants without the financial and administrative burden typically associated with permanent hires. Additionally, Adeva's contracts allowed for easy termination after a project ended, unlike traditional vendor agreements that often come with complex obligations.

The quick hiring process further solidified Adeva's role as a solution provider. Within just two business days, Adeva managed to assemble the initial scrum team of seven that was ready to contribute to the client projects immediately. Over the following months, this expanded to over 100 contractors, thanks to Adeva's global network of senior talent.

Adeva also provided the client with dedicated client partners to help with onboarding, timesheets, and reports, among other tasks. This support made project management smoother and made sure the new staff worked well with the client's management. It allowed for clear daily communication and easy integration into projects.
