Colab91
Engagement model 02

Build with experts. Operate with confidence. Transfer with ease.

Colab91 builds your offshore center, runs it until it is set up and stable, then transfers it to you. You approve the hires and the quality bar throughout, and the center becomes yours at transfer.

01
The model

Three phases. One handover.

Build.

We assess your requirements, design the org structure and operating model, and recruit the team. Colab91 leads; you approve.

Operate.

Colab91 holds the entity and runs the center, leading quality control with your approval, until it is stable.

Transfer.

Once the center is set up and stable, it moves to your full control.

Your IP throughout.

Intellectual property belongs to you at every phase, before and after the transfer.

02
Who owns what

Three models. One comparison.

Entity ownership, IP rights, ease of scale and strategic control: how responsibilities divide in each Colab91 engagement model.
