IT staff augmentation is a hiring model where you add vetted IT professionals — developers, cloud engineers, testers or security specialists — to your existing team on a contract basis. They work under your direction and inside your own process, while the provider handles sourcing, contracts and administration.
With staff augmentation, you keep control of priorities, process and how the work gets done — you're simply adding hands and skills. With outsourcing, you hand an entire project or deliverable to a vendor, who decides how it's executed and delivers the outcome.
Cost depends on the role, seniority and engagement length. Most providers quote on a day rate or monthly rate per specialist, agreed after a short scoping call once your requirements and timeline are clear.
A shortlist of pre-vetted candidates is typically ready within days rather than weeks, and most candidates can start within one to two weeks of approval, depending on role seniority and notice periods.
Yes. Candidates are matched to work AEST or AEDT hours so your team gets real-time collaboration, live stand-ups and same-day communication.
Minimum terms vary by role and provider, though most engagements start from a few weeks and extend on a rolling basis as long as the need continues.
Augmented staff are engaged and managed directly by CDU, giving you one accountable point of contact, while they work as an extension of your in-house team on a day-to-day basis.
Every candidate goes through technical screening, reference checks and a skills match against your specific brief before being shortlisted, so you only interview people who genuinely fit the role.
Yes. Many engagements start with one or two specialists and grow into a fully dedicated pod covering development, QA, DevOps and design as the project scope expands.
We place IT professionals across finance, healthcare, retail, logistics, government and SaaS businesses throughout Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.
