Overview

How this works in practice.

The Global Delivery Model lets you choose where and how your engagement is staffed: onshore, offshore or a hybrid of both.

We recommend the right mix for each engagement based on the work, collaboration needs, time zones and data constraints. Overlap hours, named leads and escalation paths are agreed upfront, and the same delivery framework and governance apply in every location.

The result is the right balance of collaboration, coverage and cost, with consistent quality throughout.

Delivery options
Onshore, offshore and hybrid
Working hours
Overlap hours agreed per engagement
Communication
Named leads and an agreed meeting cadence
Standards
One framework and governance across locations

A good fit when

  • You need to balance cost with close collaboration
  • Your teams work across time zones
  • Work requires coverage beyond a single working day
  • You want consistent quality wherever work is done

What the engagement includes

  • Onshore delivery. Hinkor people work close to your business for workshops, discovery and roles that need frequent in-person contact.
  • Offshore delivery. Engineering, testing and operations work is delivered offshore, with agreed overlap hours for collaboration.
  • Hybrid delivery. Client-facing leads work close to you, supported by a larger offshore team for build and operations.
  • Agreed overlap and communication. Overlap hours, meeting cadence and escalation paths are agreed upfront, so collaboration does not depend on time zones.
  • Data and access controls. Access to systems and data follows your policies and any data residency requirements, in every location.

FAQ

Questions about global delivery model

If your question is not here, ask it directly.

Ask a direct question
Where are your delivery teams located?

Delivery locations and onshore availability for your engagement are confirmed during scoping, based on the work, your locations and any data residency requirements.

How do you manage time zone differences?

We agree overlap hours, meeting times and escalation paths at the start. Handovers between locations are documented, so work continues smoothly across time zones.

Will we work with the same people throughout?

Yes, as far as possible. Named leads remain consistent, and any changes are planned with knowledge transfer to avoid disruption.

How is data protected when work is done offshore?

Team members access only the systems and data they need, using your access controls where possible. Data residency requirements are confirmed during scoping and reflected in the delivery design.

Which delivery model is right for us?

It depends on the work, how often your teams need to collaborate and any data or regulatory constraints. We recommend a mix during scoping and adjust it as the engagement progresses.
