Staff augmentation is a business model where companies hire external developers, designers, and technical experts to supplement their existing team on a temporary or long-term basis. Unlike outsourcing entire projects, staff augmentation provides direct access to skilled professionals who work alongside your internal team, following your processes and using your tools. This approach allows companies to scale their development capacity quickly without the overhead of full-time hiring, while maintaining control over project direction and quality standards.
