We were helped out by ScienceSoft when we were facing a critical business situation with tight deadlines for product launch, training and customer deliveries.

Team augmentation
ScienceSoft’s employees temporarily join your development team managed by your project manager. Fully staffed with the required skills, your project can move faster 1.5-2 times.
Best for: Businesses with established development teams that face a tight project deadline or skill deficiency.
ScienceSoft assembles a development team responsible for specified project tasks to collaborate with your in-house development team or other vendors. We provide skilled project managers to oversee our part of work and coordinate project activity via diverse communication tools (like Jira, Confluence, Microsoft Teams).
Best for: Multi-team projects where you need to control an overall project progress.
You entrust end-to-end software development project to ScienceSoft. This way, you can save up to 30% in development costs as you don’t hire, onboard and train full-time development staff.
