Project-Based Delivery
Designed for clearly defined initiatives with fixed objectives, timelines, and deliverables. A practical engagement model for organizations seeking targeted outcomes without long-term commitments.
ODC MODEL
OFFSHORE DEVELOPMENT CENTER
Your dedicated engineering team in Vietnam, integrated with your process, owned by you.
Engagement Models
From Project Delivery to Dedicated Engineering Capability
Organizations often begin with project-based outsourcing to solve immediate business needs. As products mature and technology becomes increasingly strategic, many evolve toward dedicated engineering teams that provide continuity, scalability, and long-term value.
Continuous Development
Built for products and platforms that require ongoing enhancement, maintenance, and iteration. Teams develop deeper business understanding while supporting evolving priorities over time.
Enclave ODC
An Offshore Development Center (ODC) is a dedicated team of engineers working exclusively for your company, integrated with your processes, tools, and culture, hosted and managed by Enclave in Vietnam. We build a team that becomes a genuine extension of your engineering org, never rotated and never reassigned. Your team is yours.
WHO IT'S FOR
Who This Model Is For
Scale your engineering capacity without the overhead. Our ODC model provides a dedicated team that works exactly like your in-house engineers.
Dedicated Infrastructure
Each client receives a dedicated engineering team and a secure workspace within Enclave's engineering centers. You retain full control over priorities and technical direction, while Enclave manages recruitment, HR, and day-to-day operations.
Strategic Flexibility
Shared infrastructure and operational efficiency across Enclave's engineering centers help reduce your total cost of ownership, while providing a more cost-effective alternative to a captive development center and the flexibility to scale teams up or down as demand changes.
Cost-Efficient Engine
We focus relentlessly on engineering and delivery, not on heavy sales and marketing. Avoiding unnecessary overhead keeps pricing competitive while sustaining high operational standards.
Ideal Partnerships
Engineered for enterprises, SMEs, and startups that value stable, long-term engineering capacity rather than short-term project outsourcing.
WHY ENCLAVE ODC
Built to Reduce the Real Risks of Offshore Engineering
Offshore development often fails because of unstable teams, unclear communication, weak ownership, knowledge loss, and security concerns.
Clients choose Enclave ODC not only for cost efficiency, but for team stability, secure operations, and long-term service sustainability.
Engineering-First, Not Sales-Driven
Enclave focuses on building reliable engineering capacity and sustainable long-term delivery, not heavy sales layers or unnecessary overhead.
Dedicated, Not Shared
Each Enclave ODC is dedicated to one client, with engineers assigned exclusively to that organization and supported by secure working practices.
Team Stability
Enclave supports replacement planning, handover and onboarding to minimize disruption if a team change occurs.
Flexible Scaling
Adjust team size and skill mix as your roadmap, workload, or budget changes.
Lower Operating Burden
Clients benefit from Enclave's shared operational infrastructure while keeping their engineering team dedicated, helping reduce overhead compared with building and running a captive offshore center independently.
Secure Delivery
Controlled access, confidentiality practices, and IP protection are built into daily operations.

CONTROL & GOVERNANCE
Your Roadmap. Your Process. Your Team.
Enclave ODC is designed to give clients control over product direction while removing the operational burden of running an offshore engineering center.
Client Controls
Product Direction
You define the roadmap, priorities, backlog, technical standards, sprint process, and delivery expectations. Your ODC team works inside your workflow and responds directly to your engineering needs.
Engineering Standards
You guide architecture decisions, code review standards, quality expectations, and technical direction.
Workflow and Tools
Your ODC team works inside your project management tools, communication channels, sprint cadence, and development environment.
Team Decisions
You participate in engineer selection, interviews, approvals, role adjustments, and team scaling decisions.
Enclave Supports
Recruitment and Onboarding
We source, screen, prepare, and onboard engineers based on your requirements.
HR and Administration
We manage employment, HR operations, office support, and administrative processes.
Workspace and Infrastructure
We provide the working environment, devices, access setup, and operational infrastructure needed for the team.
Security and Access Control
We support secure working practices, access boundaries, confidentiality, and IP protection.
Team Stability and Retention
We support long-term team continuity so your product knowledge can grow instead of restarting.
Operational and Engineering Support
We provide operational and engineering support to help each ODC team maintain the resources, capability, and working conditions needed for reliable delivery.
FLEXIBLE CAPACITY
Scaling Up and Down
FLEXIBLE CAPACITY
Scaling Up and Down
Adjust your team size as your roadmap evolves. Add specialists, grow a new squad, or temporarily reduce headcount, without the overhead of traditional hiring or the cost of layoffs.
Scale up
Add engineers within 2 to 3 weeks as your requirements grow.
Scale down
Reduce headcount with agreed notice periods, no severance overhead for you.
Add specialists
Bring in domain experts (AI, security, mobile) for specific sprints or workstreams.
Spin up a new squad
Launch a second parallel team to accelerate a new product line or market.
TRUST CENTER FRAMEWORK
Uncompromising Security & IP Protection
We intentionally restrict access to client information, projects, and engineering teams to protect sensitive data and maintain operational integrity. We do not provide project lists or client access for demonstration purposes; engineering teams and solutions are kept confidential and off-limits to external visitors.
Core principle
Client projects, source code, and internal details are strictly confidential and never publicly shared or demonstrated to outsiders. Access to teams and facilities is rigidly controlled to prevent conflicts of interest.
IP policies
All software products are licensed and owned by the client; OWASP-aligned standards and Green-Zone IP protection.
Operational security
Strict NDAs, controlled access, and a security review every release.
Confidentiality commitment
Absolute non-disclosure of client names, projects, or operational details without explicit, documented authorization. This rigid stance is a primary driver of our long-term client retention.
