This article provides a detailed overview of the Dedicated Team model in software development, including its advantages and potential drawbacks.
What is a Dedicated Team?
A Dedicated Team is a stable group of specialists assigned exclusively to one software development project. This team fully adapts to the client’s goals, technical requirements, and working style for long-term collaboration.
Typical Roles in a Dedicated Team:
Frontend / Backend Developer
UI/UX Designer
Project Manager
QA Engineer
DevOps Specialist
Advantages of a Dedicated Team:
Full focus and responsibility
The team is committed to a single project, gaining deep understanding and ensuring high product quality.
Agile adaptation to changes
Requirements often change during the project. A Dedicated Team reacts quickly and adapts flexibly.
Continuous communication
Daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and demo sessions ensure transparency and client engagement.
Cost and resource optimization
The vendor manages the team, minimizing internal hiring, training, and management costs.
Knowledge retention
A long-term team retains technical insights and knowledge about system structure and decisions.
Disadvantages of a Dedicated Team:
Not ideal for short-term projects
For 1–2 month projects, it may be costly and add unnecessary management overhead.
Requires active management
Clients must stay involved, especially in sprint planning and feedback loops.
Additional coordination effort
Working across time zones may cause delays or communication gaps if not managed well.
Who Should Use the Dedicated Team Model?
Startups
Gain full development capacity without forming an in-house team.
Medium and large enterprises
Build new modules or products without overloading internal teams.
Non-technical companies
Perfect for businesses that lack internal development expertise.
Long-term product owners
Ideal for maintaining, scaling, and evolving products over time.
Conclusion
The Dedicated Team model offers stability, focus, and flexibility in software development. That’s why Crocusoft recommends forming dedicated teams for large-scale projects, helping clients achieve the benefits of an in-house team—without building one from scratch.
