Dedicated team model is a model of software development, where software engineers work on a client’s project exclusively, for a long period of time. This means hiring the professionals of your choice that you need to carry out the tasks you normally can’t (or don’t want to) in-house.

Dedicated team model is one of the three most popular types of client and developer collaborations, the other two being time and material(T & M) and fixed price(FP) models. Dedicated team becomes the extension of your internal team, and their cooperation works in the interest of the company and the client. The outsourcing vendor is responsible for the selections of the dedicated team’s professionals and the administrative support division of the team.

The dedicated team in the mobile app development industry can include people from following domains:

Web design and back end developers, including cross platform platforms.

quality assurance engineers

UI/UX design team

DevOps

business analysts

project managers, and others

At first, the outsourcing team or the outsourcing vendor acts as a mediator between the dedicated team for the in house mobile app development team. But with time the relationship is improved and possible creativity and innovation in the field of mobile app development can follow. The outsourcing vendor charges a fee called the vendor fee which is to be supplied by the client for the dedicated development model to work.
