Software outsourcing

What is software outsourcing?

Software outsourcing is delegating the development of a product, module, or entire project to an external provider, which takes on the execution and management of the work and answers for the agreed result. The company defines what it needs and validates deliveries; the how — team, processes, day-to-day coordination — sits on the provider's side.

How it's used

It's used when a company doesn't want (or can't afford) to manage execution day to day: it hires an outcome, not people. The classic risk of the model is losing visibility into real progress — which is why serious contracts are structured around verifiable deliveries instead of status reports.

On Zenit, delegated execution is protected with verified milestones and escrowed payments: the company sees real progress, not reports. How Zenit works.
