Delivery Models

Offshore Delivery Model

This model best suits projects with a well-defined 'Project Plan'. Onsite program managers from NKT interact on a regular basis with the client to manage the requirements for outsourcing. In certain cases the program manager is located offshore and establishes regular communications through fax, telephone and email. Regular onsite meetings further support him. Progress reports are sent to the client on a regular basis. The client can conduct mid-term reviews with the program manager at their offices or at the offshore office. Our engineers also facilitate installation and acceptance testing at the client's office.

Maintenance projects, porting requirements and application development to well defined specifications are some of the engagements that are typically delivered in an offshore mode. While a complete offshore model is the most cost-effective solution for some clients, the model has a higher inherent level of risk. Risk management in such cases becomes a critical success factor.

Onsite Delivery Model

The duration and nature of engagement or the lack of proper definition in certain types of engagements often requires work to be done completely onsite at the client premises. This is especially true in the case of product engineering related services and when the project scope is open-ended and iterative in nature.

Our onsite services span a range of computing environments and business areas. We can provide clients with consultants and programmers in diverse relevant areas and technologies. Our services include Business Requirements Analysis and Technology Assessment, Formulation of Functional Specifications, Design, Coding, Testing, Maintenance and Support.

During the assignment, our consultants report to the onsite project manager. At the same time, they are also expected report to our offices in India on a weekly basis.

Proximity Model

Our Global Delivery Model includes three proximity development centers in the US and one in UK.

Proximity development locations include New Jersey, North Carolina and Florida in the US and Oxford in the UK.
