In today’s competitive landscape, the increasing global demand for technology experts has made recruiting the right talent more challenging than ever. Finding skilled professionals that fit a company’s unique needs often feels like an uphill battle. So, how can businesses manage these challenges without suffering losses or delays?

One effective solution is outsourcing and leasing IT resources. Here are 20 reasons why this approach could be the key to long-term success.

1. STAY FOCUSED ON CORE BUSINESS FUNCTIONS

By leasing IT resources, you can concentrate on your core business functions. Let a specialized outsourcing team handle the technical aspects, giving you the bandwidth to recruit and manage business-critical talent.

2. ACCESS SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE WHEN NEEDED

Leasing allows you to tap into specialized developers only when you need them. This is ideal for projects that require niche skills without long-term employment commitments.

3. LEVERAGE A VAST NETWORK OF IT PROFESSIONALS

Our network boasts over 5,000 IT professionals with proven expertise in various technologies and industries. This ensures we can match you with the right resources efficiently.

4. BENEFIT FROM PRE-VETTED AND TESTED TALENT

All our experts go through rigorous selection processes, including interviews by recruiters. Most of our resources are tried and tested, having already demonstrated their skills in action.

5. GET QUICK ACCESS TO TOP IT EXPERTS

We offer rapid access to a diverse pool of highly skilled IT experts who have been tested through long-term international engagements across multiple industries.

6. ACHIEVE COST EFFICIENCY WITH ECONOMIES OF SCALE

Outsourcing allows you to share resources across different projects, improving economies of scale. You can lease part-time resources, ensuring you only pay for what you use, and reduce costs.

7. EASILY SCALE YOUR IT CAPACITY UP OR DOWN

Need to scale your team up or down in a couple of weeks? Leasing IT resources gives you the flexibility to adjust capacity quickly, meeting project demands without delays.

8. PAY ONLY FOR WORK DELIVERED

No need to worry about paying for sick days, vacations, or training. With leased IT resources, you only pay for the work completed, without the burden of long-term investments or legal obligations.

9. GET THE BEST TALENT AT COMPETITIVE RATES

By hiring globally, we can assemble physical or virtual teams that bring world-class expertise at competitive rates. This ensures you get top-notch performance within your budget.

10. SIMPLIFY IT AND VENDOR MANAGEMENT

Leasing with us removes the complexities of IT resource management. We take on the responsibility, reducing the burden on your HR and vendor management teams while minimizing the risk of project failure.

11. ENJOY FLEXIBLE AND CONVENIENT PAYMENT TERMS

We invoice at the end of each month with a 1-month payment term, giving you ample time to review and approve the work before making payments.

12. ELIMINATE THE RISK OF MISMATCHED HIRES

Hiring the wrong employee can be costly. By leasing IT resources, you’re contractually guaranteed the right mix of skills, eliminating the risk of mismatched hires.

13. ENSURE BUSINESS CONTINUITY FOR INVESTOR-DEPENDENT COMPANIES

If your business relies on investor milestones, we provide the IT resources needed to meet those critical deliverables and keep your stakeholders happy.

14. OPTION TO RETAIN LEASED TALENT FOR LONGER TERMS

Many of our clients choose to extend leases or even hire leased IT resources full-time, offering flexibility for longer-term projects or internal integration.

15. ENHANCE EFFICIENCY FOR PUBLICLY TRADED COMPANIES

For companies focused on efficiency ratios, leasing IT capacity is an excellent way to maintain performance without the long-term financial commitment of hiring permanent staff.

16. SAVE COSTS BY LEASING PART-TIME IT RESOURCES

Similar to point 6, leasing part-time IT resources across projects allows for even greater cost savings, optimizing your budget and maximizing output.

17. FLEXIBLE SUPPORT OPTIONS TAILORED TO YOUR NEEDS

We offer two support options: pre-paid capacity that adjusts to demand or an outsourced managed service for a fixed monthly fee, ensuring you have ongoing IT support when you need it.

18. BOOST PRODUCTIVITY WITH PROJECT VARIETY

Changing environments or projects can enhance productivity for IT professionals. Leasing allows them to move between projects, keeping their skills sharp and motivation high.

19. ACCESS EXPERT PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND CONSULTING

Need leadership to drive your project forward? We can supply experienced Project Managers, Scrum Masters, or specialized solution consultants to guide your team to success.

20. WORK WITH A TEAM PASSIONATE ABOUT TECHNOLOGY

At the core of our business is a passion for technology and project management. We love what we do, and it shows in the high-quality service we deliver.

Streamline your recruitment efforts with RPO: The key to efficiency and cost-effectiveness

Are you struggling to manage your recruitment processes effectively? If so, Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) could be the solution you need. RPO is a preferred method for many companies due to its numerous advantages in optimizing recruitment and enhancing efficiency. This approach not only helps in acquiring new employees but also offers a comprehensive understanding of your company's operations and builds strong relationships with hiring managers.

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)?

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a strategic partnership where an external provider manages part or all of the recruitment process for a company. Unlike traditional recruitment, RPO involves a deeper integration with the company's teams, leading to a more efficient and streamlined process. Here’s why RPO stands out:

Direct access and quick feedback

In a traditional recruitment setup, recruiters often face communication discrepancies and delays when dealing with multiple hiring managers. They might be dismissed with vague responses like "I don't have time now," which hampers their efficiency. With RPO, you'll have direct access to hiring teams and can address their needs promptly. This leads to:

  • Reduced delays in candidate evaluation.
  • Quick and precise feedback on potential hires.
  • Efficient recruitment process with fewer obstacles.

Added value and efficiency

One of the main advantages of RPO is the added value it provides. RPO recruiters work closely with hiring managers to understand their specific needs and requirements. This results in:

  • Reduced time-to-fill vacant positions.
  • Increased efficiency in candidate selection.
  • Improved accuracy in hiring decisions.

Financial benefits

From a financial perspective, RPO can be more cost-effective compared to traditional recruitment methods. The cost benefits include:

  • Reduced recruitment costs due to streamlined processes.
  • Lower time-to-hire, which saves money.
  • Cost comparison data in our presentation (see slide no. 4) illustrates the percentage by which RPO can be cheaper than traditional methods.

Additional benefits of Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)

RPO offers several other benefits that contribute to overall recruitment success:

  • Saves time for your internal team by handling the recruitment process and communication.
  • Eliminates the need for an internal recruiter.
  • Assists in setting up efficient recruitment processes.
  • Trains team leaders to enhance recruitment practices.
  • High motivation from RPO recruiters to make successful placements.
  • Improved candidate experience, as candidates interact with a dedicated representative rather than multiple agencies.
  • Enhanced market impression with a single point of contact for candidates.

Conclusion

If you want to recruit efficiently, reduce costs, and enhance your company's competitive edge in the coming year, consider adopting Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO). This strategy not only streamlines the recruitment process but also brings significant financial and operational benefits.

TechBBQ 2024: SnapStack takes ‘One Giant Leap’ into the heart of innovation

What is TechBBQ?

TechBBQ has become the heartbeat of the startup and innovation ecosystem in Scandinavia. What started as a humble BBQ gathering for tech enthusiasts and entrepreneurs in 2013 has, over the years, evolved into a large-scale summit that now draws attendees from around the world for two days of inspiration, networking, and growth.

In 2024, TechBBQ stood as a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation. It was a call to the founders, investors, accelerators, and community players who are willing to think big, take risks, and act as change agents in shaping our future. “One Giant Leap” embodied the spirit of entrepreneurship—a constant leap of faith in something you believe in. It symbolized unity and, more importantly, the transformative impact of collective effort, reminding us that, even though individual steps may seem small, together they amount to significant leaps toward innovation, sustainability, and equity.

Against this backdrop of ambition and urgency, our SnapStack team—CEO Ivan Ivanov and Head of Sales Predrag Kulić—embarked on a two-day marathon of networking and discovery at TechBBQ in Copenhagen. 

What did they experience? Here’s a glimpse into their journey.

SnapStack Diary, Day 1: A marathon of meetings and moments at TechBBQ

“Today was tough, our feet hurt like never before!” laughed Ivan Ivanov, describing the intensity of their first day. Despite the clear skies in photos, the reality was different. “It looks sunny, but it’s freezing here! And to top it off, we got caught in a torrential downpour this morning,” Predrag Kulić chimed in. They had initially planned to use Bolt bikes for their commute; however, due to the weather, they were forced to opt for a taxi instead. "We had some funny moments during the ride, and yet I’ll let Ivan share that story," Predrag teased.

"Predrag mentioned that I had a funny taxi story, so here it is: We got into the taxi, and I asked the driver to take us to TechBBQ. He replied, ‘Guys, it’s too early for barbecue!’" Ivan laughed again.

TECHBBQ, the epicenter of the Scandinavian startup ecosystem, lived up to its reputation. The SnapStack team walked thousands of steps, meeting a diverse mix of IT firms—from startups and consultancy companies to business organizations and automotive players. “We exchanged dozens of contacts and made countless new connections,” said Ivan. “It was exhausting but incredibly rewarding.”

Czech-Slovak meet-up in Denmark

The evening continued at the Czech-Slovak meet-up, organized by Vít Schlesinger. “It was amazing to see so many people from IT, product, marketing, and sales. Some came just because of Vít’s LinkedIn post, even though they’d never met him before!” Ivan recounted.

Vít kicked off the gathering with a unique icebreaker: each attendee introduced themselves, explained their role, shared their added value, and disclosed any challenges they were facing. Predrag, with his signature smile, declared, “Nothing is troubling me, because ‘life is good.’” The informal and spontaneous atmosphere was perfect for deep, meaningful conversations and networking.

SnapStack Diary, Day 2: A reflective look and a positive finish

Reflecting on the second day, Ivan shared a more nuanced perspective. “After some rest and a bit of distance, I can say that this has been a truly enriching and inspiring experience,” he said. The team connected with a wide range of professionals—from consultants and venture funds to dynamic startup founders. Every interaction was a new opportunity for growth and collaboration.

The weather improved, allowing them to relax in the garden. “We used this quiet corner to take a few calls with our Czech clients. It was a nice way to break up the day,” Predrag said. He couldn’t help but laugh about one quirky detail: “The chairs had heated seats that you could adjust—such a small thing, but really funny and nice!”

Their trip ended with a slight hiccup—a delayed flight at the airport. “Despite the delay, we’re leaving with a great feeling,” Ivan shared. “We’ve made dozens of new, interesting contacts and gathered countless ideas.”

Copenhagen, with its unique charm, stunning architecture, and the ever-present sense of ‘hygge’, left a lasting impression. 

“We know for sure that SnapStack will be back at TechBBQ next year,” Ivan concluded, already looking forward to the next opportunity to leap into the heart of innovation.

If you didn’t get a chance to meet them there, save the date for the Web Summit in Lisbon, taking place from November 11-14. Or just reach out to them via LinkedIn.
