Home / ODC
An engineering team in Pune that reports to you.
Not a vendor you send work to. A team that sits inside your project, uses your systems, follows your standards, and scales with your programme.
Every ODC engagement runs under the same technical governance as our project work — internal review before anything reaches you, under a Chartered Engineer and NAFEMS PSE Assessor.
Three models
Dedicated offshore project teams
A ring-fenced team executing your projects end to end. You direct the work; we carry the employment, licences, infrastructure and technical governance.
Best when: you have continuous project volume and want delivery capacity without permanent headcount.
Dedicated project teams →Tailored engineering design teams
A team assembled to a defined programme and skill profile — the disciplines you specify, in the proportions you need, for as long as the programme runs.
Best when: a specific programme needs a capability mix you do not hold in-house.
Engineering design teams →Dedicated talent pool
Flexible access to vetted engineers who integrate into your existing workflows, scaling up and down as demand moves.
Best when: demand is variable and you need capacity without a fixed team commitment.
Dedicated talent pool →What IDAC carries
The commercial case for an ODC is not only the rate differential. It is everything you do not have to build: recruitment, employment liability, office and IT infrastructure, software licences, and the technical supervision that makes offshore output trustworthy.
Software licensing in particular is where design-based ODC engagements produce most of their saving — the licences sit on our books, not yours, and scale with the team rather than with your capital budget.
Included in every engagement
IDAC provides:
- Recruitment, employment and retention of the team
- Office space, workstations and secure IT infrastructure
- Software licences appropriate to the discipline
- Internal technical review before deliverables reach you
- A named point of accountability for delivery
- Documented knowledge retention so the team is not a single point of failure
The cost position, stated plainly
Design-based ODC engagements have reduced client software and operating costs by up to 60%. Resource-pool engagements have reduced operating costs by up to 42%. Both figures are illustrative rather than guaranteed, and they depend heavily on the baseline you are comparing against.
