What Makes IT Staff Augmentation Unique From Traditional Outsourcing 

Traditional outsourcing is where an agency outsources all or part of a project to a third-party vendor, usually for a fixed fee, which means that the vendor is generally responsible for providing the service. In contrast, with staff augmentation, the agency retains project control.

Furthermore, staff augmentation is far more flexible than outsourcing, as agencies only need to pay for the required professionals when needed and for a specified period, which means that staffing augmentation can be tailored to meet an agency’s unique needs and help control costs whilst also providing the agency with access to the right professionals, skills, and expertise.
