The Importance of Team as a Service (TaaS) in Modern Businesses
The importance of increasing demand for agility and reliability to deliver projects in today’s global marketplace cannot be overlooked. Have you ever wondered if burdening your core team with an extra workload may lead to burnout and affect their performance and work-life balance? You have an urgent requirement for some extra professionals on a short-term basis and are unable to find the right talent.
Previously, you were limited to only working with individual contractors or outside vendors to manage your extra workforce needs. What if?… You can outsource the extra burden to a team of experienced professionals.

Role of TaaS in an organization –
“Because a team is more than a group of individuals”
Hiring or outsourcing an efficient team is not an easy task. It takes effort and time to get a desired skill-set team. For achieving a successful outcome and before finally uniting as a team, team members usually go through different stages of development. That desired optimum performance is not achieved by simply starting with a group of individuals; instead, you need to pick a consistent team to get significantly better performance from the initial stage.
To explain this in a better way, if we make a graph of team effectiveness over time, we will see the four stages:
- Forming – Questioning, socializing, sticking to safe topics, and focusing on group identity.
- Storming – Competition, high emotions, resistance, and conflicts.
- Norming – Developing cohesion, engagement, and support, with lowered anxiety.
- Performing – A balance of task and process orientation, a healthy system, and team ability to produce effectively.
Extensive Professional Knowledge
Our team adheres to industrial-level quality standards and develops & works according to particular needs or demands. We believe in the leading-edge development process by understanding the problems faced by clients and finding the best solution.
Applied Technologies and Development Tools
Over the period, we have implemented several techniques and development tools, out of which a few of our favorites include:
The Important Steps
1. Analysis
A thorough examination is conducted by understanding the circumstances and consulting the client’s tech team. We perform a complete analysis and consultation to find what our clients need and whether to work on existing code.
2. Team Selection
Based on the examination and analysis, we appoint a project manager and a team that understands the needs of the clients. To ensure maximum compatibility, clients can interview our team members.
3. Team Assignment
Once the requirements are understood, we assign developers and start an onboarding session. Here, the team follows a quick build-measure-learn cycle in their development process. At the end of each sprint (typically 2 weeks), a planning event is conducted and is open to clients.
4. Onboarding
Throughout the service deployment, team managers ensure continuous and frictionless communication.
