Operational Models
Operational Model
With a number of years of experience working in the field of CAD outsourcing services, Indovance offers three time-tested operating paradigms that really work - Project Based Model, The Dedicated studio (Dedicated Back Office) model and Offshore development center (ODC).
Project Based Model
If you have an occasional need for CAD outsourcing, or would like to first try working with Indovance before you commit to longer term CAD outsourcing, Project Based Model is the way to start working with Indovance. In this model, you will be working directly with a dedicated project manager (rather than a dedicated team) for project co-ordination and workflow. The project manager is the key to maintain continuity between multiple projects and to help CAD outsourcing work for you seamlessly.
The Studio Model (Dedicated Back Office)
If your office has an on-going and regular need for CAD support, the Studio Model is the one for you. Most of our clients start off with outsourcing a single project (Project based model) and eventually commit to the studio model within a few weeks - it's not only more cost-effective, it's simply much better. With a studio, Indovance allocates a dedicated team (of one or more members) for you, that maintains continuity and consistency from one project to another. Every studio is led and supervised by a senior project leader - for assuring project quality, timely work completion and project co-ordination. Over time, the dedicated team develops a good rapport with the client and as well as detailed understanding of the client working style.
Offshore Development Center (ODC) – More than just Outsourcing
An offshore development center (ODC) is a dedicated development center located in locations other than your home country, for carrying out drafting services or related support activities. This paradigm of outsourcing is relevant for companies that plan to setup teams of ten or more draftsperson, for the longer term (in years, rather than months). Indovance can help setup an ODC for your company as we have the infrastructure as well as the expertize to do so.
In a project-based model, a new team is formed for every project. Hence, knowledge retention and the benefits of re-usability cannot be availed. This issue is effectively tackled by the ODC model, where the responsibility of staffing and quality is with Indovance.
Additionally, once a basic foundation for an ODC is established, the model is flexible and easily scalable. This can enable a quicker launch of new projects for a particular client.
Indovance has the experience of working with hundreds of clients, which helps our clients in fine tuning the technical, functional, and governance skills required in managing an ODC.
To reap the full benefits of an offshore outsourcing initiative, it is imperative that organizations plan for a long term engagement in the form of an ODC. By adopting this approach, organizations can reduce the fixed costs over a long term period. For example, change management, transition, governance and project management costs will gradually keep reducing over a three-to-four year period. As the relationship matures and the service provider continues to introduce new techniques to boost productivity in an ODC, the costs of managing the ODC will go down - while efficiencies continue to go up.
Regardless of the model you choose to work with us, at Indovance, client satisfaction is of utmost importance and our aim is to convert every customer into a future reference. We have developed systems and work flow processes for close supervision, quality review and continuous communication with the client to ensure that the projects are delivered on time and with customer's in-house quality standards.
