Rapid Referral
Outsourcing Software Development Vendor Referral Service
The Rapid Referral service, uses a proprietary Accelerance process to match client needs with the global partner network members that are the best fit for them. Accelerance provides hands-on coaching to help clients select the best team for their projects.
As a Global Partner Network member, you receive highly qualified client opportunities from Accelerance. We will introduce the client to you to begin building a relationship. Accelerance acts as your sales team and will help negotiate an outsourcing agreement and provide account management. After a contract is signed then invoicing and payment are directly between you and the client.
Accelerance will provide you insight and advice on your performance during the sales process, but our main mission is to deliver unbiased and objective advice to the client to help them select the best partner. Accelerance will not favor one Global Partner Network member over another – you each have a fair chance at winning the business based on your strengths and your match with the client’s needs.
Rapid Runtime
Custom Software Application Development Services
Accelerance works closely with the client to define their development requirements using software development and outsourcing experts. Our senior advisors often visit the client site to work directly with client personnel to define the objectives and goals of the software. Complete specifications are created where required or specifications are kept to a minimum when an agile methodology is used to begin development quickly.
Accelerance then subcontracts the actual software development to one of our Preferred global partners that has successfully completed a comprehensive onsite assessment. Accelerance takes full responsibility for the delivery of the client’s software and applies project management resources and oversight to ensure success.
The Accelerance Global Delivery Center model is ideal for clients who have high value software projects where on time delivery is critical. Accelerance guidance and oversight enables these clients to save money using global outsourced software development without the risks and commitment of managing the outsourced relationship themselves.
