According to recent reports, the technology industry already accounts for 35% of the entire world market, while innovations appear every day that turn entire segments upside down. Even companies with well-assembled IT teams are struggling to cope with this pace, and by 2025, around 4 million developers may be missing from the global labor market. Companies forced to digitize thus increasingly entrust their IT projects to external experts – especially if they require special knowledge. What is the difference between outsourcing and the involvement of borrowed teams, what should be considered during such cooperation? What about IT security and can artificial intelligence make a difference in this area?

Increasingly digitalization pressures are pressing on the shoulders of companies worldwide, continuous efficiency improvement and cost reduction are among the most important business strategic goals in almost every sector. Therefore, projects aimed at process automation, robotization, and the introduction of data analysis and AI solutions are proceeding at full speed, however, it is increasingly difficult to obtain the necessary expertise, and the much-mentioned labor shortage remains severe in almost all segments of the IT sector.

“Sooner or later, every company comes up with the idea of involving external resources in development work, one of the traditional forms of this is outsourcing the entire project or individual partial tasks to an external service provider, but it is increasingly common to borrow specialists or complete teams to replace missing competencies. Since the popularity of remote work solutions has increased significantly since the pandemic, the world has opened up in this area”

– says Gábor Gönczy, managing director and owner of the Stylers information technology company group.
