IT staff augmentation is a model of outsourcing that involves hiring additional IT staff on a temporary or project basis to work alongside an existing team. In this model, the client company retains control over the project and the work of the augmented team, while the augmentation company provides the necessary staff with the required skills and expertise.

IT staff augmentation providers typically offer a range of services, including recruitment, screening, and placement of IT professionals, as well as project management and quality assurance. The augmented staff can work remotely or on-site at the client’s location.
