Frequently asked questions about nearshore
How do I recognise a good nearshore provider?
A good nearshore provider checks not only CVs but the partners behind them: references, experience with DACH clients, communication quality, response times and real operating structures. That is exactly what our partner and profile check covers before we introduce specialists to you.
What is nearshoring?
Nearshoring means sourcing IT services from nearby countries. For German companies, these are mostly regions close to the EU in the same or a neighbouring time zone. At Delvera, nearshore IT means vetted mid-level and senior specialists from Poland, Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Portugal, Croatia and Ukraine, coordinated from Munich.
What does a nearshore developer cost?
Costs depend on seniority, skill set, location and availability. We agree on the budget range in the first call, before we introduce the first profile.
Which countries do your nearshore specialists come from?
From Poland, Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Portugal, Croatia and Ukraine. The choice depends on role, availability, language and your setup.
Nearshore or offshore, which fits us?
Both location models work within German business hours. Nearshore fits close alignment and short paths, offshore fits scaling and budget efficiency.
Who is my contract partner?
Your contract partner is Delvera GmbH in Munich. The engagement is coordinated through Delvera instead of you managing several contracts with international partners.
Who steers the project after the start?
Technical steering and acceptance stay with you. Delvera remains your central point of contact for alignment, communication, commercial matters and escalation.
What happens if the fit is not right?
If the technical or communication fit is not right, we first identify the cause together with you and the specialist and agree on concrete improvement measures. If there is no reliable improvement within two weeks, we initiate a replacement.
