Outsourcing of IT specialists

According to the definition, outsourcing is the use of services and resources of external companies in order to increase the efficiency of the conducted activity. Similarly to the implementation of commissioned projects, IT outsourcing is an offer addressed to companies running or just starting their activities that do not have a large or experienced IT team to carry out a comprehensive project. Depending on the needs, we offer one of the three types of outsourcing:

Sometimes deciding which type of cooperation to choose is quite difficult for people from outside of the IT industry. That is why we support our customers also at this stage – suggesting a solution appropriate to their needs.

One of the principles we at TravelTECH value greatly is confidentiality. We guarantee our Customers that the ideas or information entrusted by them will be treated as strictly confidential and will not be made available to others than delegated employees (unless it is necessary) or outside the company without explicit instructions!

The advantages of outsourcing

Outsourcing, in a nutshell, means savings. Time saving, money saving and risk minimization.

• No need for a long and expensive recruitment process
• No need to keep an employee in the case of no tasks for them
• No risk of hiring an incompetent or inappropriate person
• No risk of employee rotation
• Significantly reduced risk of project failure
• Guarantee of experience, knowledge and commitment

Outsourcing of IT teams

The outsourcing offer is always tailor-made. Every day TravelTECH employs several dozen specialists in various fields, with varying degrees of experience and knowledge of technology. Among them are:

• Experienced systems analysts
• System and database architects
• System administrators (DevOps)
• Project managers
• UI/UX specialists
• Graphic designers and developers
• Back- and front-end developers
• Testers
• Implementers
• SEM/SEO specialists

Thanks to such a wide range of competences, we are able to build such a team that, on the one hand, it meets the requirements, and on the other, it is as cost-effective as possible.
 
There are also a few undeniable advantages of TravelTECH outsourcing:

• First – our specialists understand each other without words – thanks to the fact that they have been cooperating with each other for a long time. Thanks to this, we largely avoid misunderstandings and delays resulting from a lack of or incorrect communication between employees.

• Second – despite the fact that the hired team includes specific specialists, they use not only their knowledge, but also the knowledge and experience of the entire TravelTECH team.

• Third – immediate replacement of a specialist from the team with another TravelTECH engineer in the event of their illness, vacation or unavailability.

Outsourcing of specialists

Some projects are not big enough to require a separate team. Sometimes there are also situations when a company suddenly loses one of its specialists or needs to implement a quick micro-project. In such situations, it is a good idea to consider leasing (hiring) a specialist, i.e. a person with specific skills (usually a programmer), who may join the Customer's team for a short period of time.

The advantages of such a solution are identical to the advantages of team outsourcing. However, it is worth emphasizing that despite the fact that the Customer "hires" only one employee – they have access to all the knowledge and experience accumulated in TravelTECH!

Recruitment process outsourcing

The offer is addressed to companies that want to create their own IT department or for various reasons do not want to conduct recruitment themselves. For many years TravelTECH has been independently and successfully recruiting IT specialists. In our history, we have conducted over 300 interviews for our own and our customers' needs, eventually employing over 100 people.

The recruitment process is typically handled as follows:

• Analysis of the needs and creation of an ideal candidate profile and definition of minimum requirements
• Passive search for candidates – preparation of an advertisement and placing it on websites
• Active search for candidates – using our own network of contacts
• Verification of applications
• Conducting an interview (in person) consisting of several parts:
1. the introduction – presentation of the company, offered position, description of projects
2. the general part – allowing to determine the history, characteristics and expectations of the candidate
3. the part allowing to determine the soft skills
4. the substantive part – theoretical
5. the substantive part – practical
• Creation of a report comparing the candidates and suggestion of choices
• Possible assistance in the employment and onboarding of the candidate
