Your own offshore development centre in India, run by Future Focus Infotech
An offshore development centre (ODC) is a dedicated team that works only for you, from India, while Future Focus Infotech handles hiring, payroll, office, equipment and HR. You get the capacity of your own engineering team at a lower cost than hiring locally, without setting up a company in India.
What you get
- A dedicated team of developers, testers, DevOps, data or support engineers who work only on your products.
- Recruitment by FFI: we hire to your skill profile and you interview and approve every team member.
- Everything around the team: employment, payroll, workspace, equipment, connectivity and HR handled by FFI.
- Your way of working: the team follows your processes, tools and sprint cadence, with overlap hours agreed for UAE or US time zones.
- Room to grow: start with a few people and scale the team as your roadmap grows.
Who this is for
UAE and GCC companies whose technology roadmap is bigger than their local team, and who find local hiring slow or expensive.
US and international companies that want an India team without opening their own legal entity there.
Product companies that need long-term, stable capacity rather than short project contracts.
ODC, outsourcing or a GCC?
- Project outsourcing: you buy an outcome for a fixed scope. Good for one-off projects.
- ODC: you get a dedicated team long term, run by FFI. Good when you need ongoing capacity without your own entity.
- GCC (global capability centre): you own the centre in the end, often through build-operate-transfer. Good for larger, strategic teams. See GCC setup.

Frequently asked questions
What is an offshore development centre?
A dedicated team in another country, usually India, that works exclusively for one client. The provider handles employment, workspace and administration, while the client directs the work.
How is an ODC different from a dedicated team?
They are closely related. An ODC usually means a longer-term, larger team with its own workspace and processes, often the first step towards a full global capability centre.
Do we need a legal entity in India?
No. The team is employed by Future Focus Infotech, so you do not need to set up a company in India.
How much does an ODC cost?
It depends on team size, skills and seniority. After a short call I share a written estimate per role and per month before you commit.
