What others say about us
How does Build-Operate-Transfer work?
Build-Operate-Transfer is a partnership model that allows you to quickly extend your operational capabilities by accessing an outsourced team of experts.
With support from your nearshore/offshore business partner, you set up a development centre abroad, hire new people locally and then include them back into your company.

BOT phases
Clear cost breakdown
Ensure cost awareness with BOT open book
We value clarity and a good relationship with our clients. That’s why, as part of the BOT model, we also offer an open book that presents all relevant costs associated with the endeavour, in detail. Insight into costs such as administration, benefits, IT, recruitment, and management fees will allow you to evaluate your total daily, monthly and yearly expenses more effectively, making it easier for you to prepare for the Transfer stage.
Key benefits:
- Full transparency – You have insight into all the financial components of your project.
- Predictability – You know from the start what costs associated with the transfer of an employee you can expect in the future.
- Cost structure awareness – You get the full picture of all kinds of costs in a project for a given market, which can help you plan a long-term strategy.
- Market understanding – You get the chance to gain more knowledge about the market in which your team will operate.

Frequently asked questions
In the traditional outsourcing model, once your partnership ends, there isn’t a way to access the resources you’ve used in the past, including the expertise you’ve gathered and the people who have worked on your team. It isn’t the case with the Build-Operate-Transfer engagement type, where you keep the knowledge team even after you and your business partner are no longer working together, and the team is transferred into your company.
Yes, we do. Spyrosoft is an agile company, and we were founded on the principles of agile. With Spyrosoft, you can be sure that the processes we use together will closely integrate with those used at your organisation. We have daily scrum standups, retrospectives and iterative ways of developing our clients’ products and services. This is ingrained in all that we do.
Given our agile basis of collaboration, we can follow all our clients’ procedures and standards. The Build-Operate-Transfer partnership ensures that your dedicated teams will work the same way as your in-house employees do. The first stage of the collaboration (Build) involves understanding your product roadmap and goals; building and aligning them to your company culture; assigning resources, providing training where required, and making sure all the elements are embedded into your newly formed group of Spyrosoft experts.
