Customers, in today’s global marketplace, require the flexibility to choose from a variety of engagement models or develop a custom model. Based on the need, Blue Star Infotech works with each of its customers to establish these engagement models. Our standard models are structured along 2 dimensions: Delivery and Business Model.

The Delivery Model provides you with options to determine the right framework for the engagement and the Business Model defines the commercial arrangements for the engagement. Based on your business needs and long-term strategies, we can help you make the right decision or even customize these.

 
   
 
 
 
The ODC Model, utilized by customers seeking a long-term engagement, is dedicated to servicing the customer and customized to the customer’s needs – in terms of infrastructure, staffing and security. Such a model has a number of benefits such as: longevity of the ODC staff, high-level of familiarization with the customer’s business and improved productivity and efficiency over a period of time. We also offer the option of selecting either a Dedicated ODC or Shared ODC.
 
     
   
 
 
 
The EO model is a virtual extension of the customer’s IT arm. In this model, the offshore staff access the environment provided by the customer through secure connections. We take responsibility for the EO resources but the infrastructure is managed by the customer staff directly. This is normally utilized when it is not possible to simulate an environment offshore due to prohibitive costs or availability of capacity or high-security requirements.
 
     
   
 
 
 
The fixed price model can be employed when the scope and specifications are reasonably clear, and not subject to frequent changes. For customers, this is a low-risk model, as it guarantees delivery of defined scope within the stipulated time and cost. In this model, we take end-to-end charge of the assigned scope.
 
     
   
 
 
 
This model is most suited when the scope is not well-defined or evolving or if there is a strong overlap between Blue Star Infotech and customer staff or frequent switching of priorities/tasks or if the customer requires flexibility in the size of the team. While we take the management responsibility for ensuring the deliverables, the customer has control over their work.
 
     
   
 
 
 
This model is typically used by customers requiring a limited number of engineers offshore with complete management control. In such a model, the pricing arrangement is lower than a typical T&M-based ODC.
 
 
   
 
 
 

This model is typically used by customers having a long-term vision of establishing their own operations in India. It enables them to rapidly setup an offshore center by partnering with us, and later transfer it to themselves as their own subsidiary.
