Attractive Cost

Within Nobeah’s remote development technique the interaction between each Nobeah architect and each developer is well structured. Based on the cost of the remote developer’s time being much lower, the average cost of remote development will be effectively from the Nobeah architect’s rate while still producing the high quality results of onsite Nobeah services.. The greater the number of remote development consultants contracted by Nobeah for the customer, the higher the effective discount for the customer.

In addition to saving on labor rates clients also save in avoiding the necessity of accommodating, supporting and managing onsite resources. Such costs may include rental and support of equipment such as laptops, and usage of office space. For each contractor phone, email, and security access have to be configured when the contractor begins their engagement and then retired when the contractor’s engagement ends. The time required to familiarize contractors with internal standards is another hidden cost in hiring contractors directly. This cost is minimized with Nobeah remote development by the Nobeah architect after gaining some familiarity with those standards who effectively decouples the remote developer from the customer’s internal systems.

Permits Better Allocation of Internal Resources

Employees are more familiar with the companies business than are contractors of most levels of skill and experience. Projects are often best served when employees focus on the parts of projects dealing with aspects of projects that are specific to the company’s internal systems … leaving the laborious routine coding to contractors. Such aspects include gathering or outlining requirements, creating an architecture consistent with the company’s environment and strategic goals, and employing shared services that the company has created and that are therefore unique to that environment. Nobeah managed remote development efficiently assigns responsibility to allow company employees to focus on more value-added work.

Avoid Recruitment and Screening of Resources

The time required to even assist in the recruitment of resources can cripple the productivity of a development team. Once a company advertises a contract position any employees related to the recruitment or interview process may be swamped with calls and resumes. The task of sifting through this mountain of email often diverts scarce resources from problems with looming critical deadlines. Sorting through voicemail for important notices may be even more difficult. In addition once an employee’s phone number or email become public they can’t be made unpublic … they can only be changed. Nobeah will recruit resources and screen them to ensure they are capable of completing development tasks to the required standard of quality. Though clients are not involved in the recruitment process clients have access to the terms of the contractor’s agreement not related to rates.

Maintain Security of Data and Internal Processes

In general components can be categorized as being dependent on internal systems or having no dependencies on internal systems. Our experience in the architecture and design and development of systems reveals that for well-designed and architected systems the vast majority of work will require no access whatsoever to the companies systems. Only the onsite Nobeah representative or customers system administrator actually deploying the components needs to know the configuration settings (which sometimes include logins and passwords) of the customer’s deployment environment.
