Companies choose to outsource tasks to a digital product agency for many different reasons, some of which are not directly related to the options we discussed previously. Adding to the information found above, a team may choose outsource part of their tasks in order to:
Observe the requirements for a specific task and the experience that accompanies it. Then, based on that information they can choose a qualified candidate for their in-house team.
Help their in-house team become more familiar with practises they have a hard time understanding. In other words, it is valuable, long-term training.
The in-house team may cost more $$ per hour compared to the outsourcing partner. In this case, it is more cost effective to outsource a number of given tasks and focus the attention of the in-house staff on more complex work.
A startup company may choose to test software product development outsourcing models to see if their staff functions better and is not feeling a mental burden that could affect their work in a negative way.
