…with very high salaries and extreme competition for tech talent usually struggle to scale their teams and deliver new software products to their organization and customers.<\/p>

AdvanceWorks\u2019 Captive Centres offering provides an innovative and cost-effective way to set up software delivery teams and organizations in Portugal. AdvanceWorks can support your organization\u2019s growth by delivering services in medium to long term contracts, or more strategically by setting up a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)<\/strong> contract, where we setup an organization for you, build your team and infrastructure, operate it effectively, and eventually transfer ownership to you, creating a long-term, self-sustaining IT delivery capability.<\/p>

Why Clients Choose Captive Centres<\/strong>
At AdvanceWorks, we understand the key objectives of companies looking to set up captive centres. Our BOT model is designed to address these goals:
1. Access to World-Class Tech Talent at lower cost<\/strong>
2. Geographical Proximity<\/strong>
3. Risk reduction<\/strong>
4. Long-Term Commitment<\/strong><\/p>

Take full advantage of all the benefits of a nearshore captive centre, with a clear path to full ownership and operational independence.<\/p>

How It Works<\/strong>
Our BOT model follows a structured, phased approach, ensuring a smooth transition from setup to full operation:<\/p>

1. Build Phase<\/strong>
We start by establishing your captive centre, setting up the legal, operational, and IT infrastructure, and recruiting top-tier talent. This phase also includes selecting the right technology, tools, and training your teams to align with your business goals.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

2. Operate Phase<\/strong>
Once the centre is operational, we manage the daily activities, ensuring the right governance structures, KPIs, and performance metrics are in place. We provide end-to-end support, managing both the team and processes to optimize efficiency and innovation.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

3. Transfer Phase<\/strong>
After stabilizing operations, we smoothly transition the centre\u2019s ownership to your company. This phase includes a comprehensive handover, where all assets \u2013 such as people, technology, and intellectual property \u2013 are transferred to your control.<\/p>

Why Portugal?<\/strong>
Portugal offers the perfect combination of technical expertise, cost-effectiveness, and cultural compatibility. As a top destination for tech talent in Europe, it is home to a large pool of IT professionals with expertise in various fields, from software development to project management.<\/p>

\u2022 Cost of living:<\/strong> Portugal ranked 15th in the Cost-of-Living Index across Europe, making it a cost-effective location for your captive centre<\/p>

\u2022 Language:<\/strong> Most IT professionals in Portugal are fluent in English, making communication seamless.<\/p>

\u2022 Cultural factors:<\/strong> Portuguese are dedicated, open and easily adaptable to new organizations and ways of work, maximizing the success probability of such a strategic decision as setting up a Captive Centre in new geography for your entity<\/p>
