Frequenty Asked Questions
What is the vEmployee model, and how does it differ from traditional outsourcing?
The vEmployee model is a dedicated engagement approach, where your team operates as an extension of your in-house team, focusing solely on your projects. Unlike traditional outsourcing, which often involves multi-client setups and limited client oversight, the vEmployee model provides a fully integrated team that aligns with your vision, culture, and business goals.
How flexible is the vEmployee model if our needs change?
Very flexible! You can easily scale your team up or down depending on project demands. Whether you need additional skills or more manpower for a project phase, the vEmployee model adapts to your requirements, allowing you to stay agile without the overhead of permanent hires.
What does onboarding look like for a vEmployee team?
The onboarding process is structured and efficient. We begin by thoroughly understanding your business goals, project requirements, and operational workflows to ensure the team is fully aligned with your vision from day one. Based on your needs, we carefully select and assign experienced team members whose skills and expertise match your project, allowing for a seamless start without the need for direct interviews.
How does Clarion ensure quality and accountability?
Quality and accountability are integral to our model. Each team’s performance is tracked through Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and other metrics, which are shared with you regularly. Tools like SonarQube ensure adherence to coding standards, and regular reviews with the team help us maintain transparency and high standards.
How does AI factor into the development process, and do I have to use it?
Our AI capabilities are available as an optional enhancement to your development process. While we offer AI-driven tools that can streamline coding, improve productivity, and optimize time-to-market, we fully understand that some customers prefer a more traditional approach. If you choose not to leverage AI in your project, rest assured that our team will deliver using established, high-quality development practices without any AI involvement. Whether you decide to go with AI or the traditional route, we are committed to delivering reliable, top-tier solutions tailored to your preferences and goals.
How is pricing structured for vEmployee services?
Pricing is straightforward and transparent. You pay a weekly rate, which is determined by factors such as the number of team members, their specific roles, experience levels, and the technologies involved in your project. This flexible structure allows you to scale your team as needed, ensuring you only pay for the resources that directly contribute to your project’s success.
Is my intellectual property safe with the vEmployee team?
Absolutely. Clarion adheres to stringent security and confidentiality protocols to protect your intellectual property and data. Our CMMI Level 3 certification and additional security measures provide a secure environment for all sensitive project information.
What happens if we need to replace a team member?
We understand that sometimes a change in team members is necessary, and we’re fully committed to making transitions smooth and seamless. If a replacement is required, we’ll promptly identify and onboard a new team member to fit your project’s needs. To ensure continuity, we offer a two-week free onboarding period for the new team member, allowing for a thorough knowledge transfer so your project progresses without any disruption.
Can I communicate directly with my vEmployee team?
Yes, direct communication is encouraged! You’ll have full access to your team, including daily stand-ups, regular meetings, and instant messaging tools. This helps maintain transparency and ensures your team understands your evolving requirements.
How is project management handled within the vEmployee model?
In our vEmployee model, project management is typically led by the customer, allowing you to directly align development priorities with your specific business goals. While our people supervisors focus on supporting team productivity and performance, they do not handle day-to-day project management. However, if you need additional project management support, we offer the option to hire dedicated or part-time Scrum Masters who can manage sprints, ensure alignment with your priorities, and provide structure to the agile development process. Our agile methodology also provides transparency, enabling you to track project progress and milestones through sprint-based updates and clear visibility into all ongoing tasks.
