Staff augmentation involves bringing in external experts (contractors or consultants) to fill specific skill gaps or handle additional workload—without long-term employment.
In-house teams are full-time employees hired directly by the organization. They are embedded in the company’s culture, systems, and long-term vision.
This hybrid model lets you stay lean, reduce burn, and innovate faster—especially in uncertain markets.

Solution? They keep the core architecture work in-house but augment with a team of 5 UI/UX designers and testers for the next 12 weeks. Project done. No long-term costs. Mission accomplished
