Being detail oriented with a development mindset is crucial for any development partner you choose. Outcome must be prioritized over output. Here, the key consideration is that big is not better. Outsourcing must be done on a need-to-need basis with the right outcome in mind.

Track Record

A portfolio of successful projects must be your first consideration. Be sure to look for a partner with reputation in your niche. Strategic partnerships with long-term goals is rendered much more fruitful. Be sure to test their digital products to understand the level of expertise that they bring to the table.

Prowess

Put the potential partner’s technical prowess under scrutiny. Product development is a dynamic process with no room for a one-size-fits-all solution. Multiple areas of technical expertise must be considered. In this ever-evolving technical landscape, tech should match the trends when it comes to development. Make sure the candidate in consideration is adept in all the latest nuances and advancements in the field such as databases, mobile platform, web platform, machine learning, artificial intelligence, cloud, analytics, CRM, and DevOps to name a few.

Agile

Reworks can be costly both economically and temporally. Partners who adhere to the Agile or Scrum practices and follows the CI/CD philosophy can help you eliminate this. Measurement, testing, scaling, and aligning the results to the business objective comes lucidly through this iterative process.

By keeping these 3 aspects in the back of your head while hiring, you can be sure that the partner is just right for your business. Next, we will provide you a 5-step framework to follow while selecting a software vendor for your business.
