Your roadmap, shipped by an AI-native team you don't have to run.

A senior team with a BEON tech lead and project manager, working the way the best teams work now: every engineer owns an outcome from spec to production, runs AI agents in parallel, and ships pull requests reviewed by AI and then by the tech lead.

The Nearshoring Protocol™

What a managed engineering team is made of

A senior team with a tech lead and a project manager from BEON, running the process the best teams run today. You get the outcomes without running the team.

AI
Engineers who build with AI

Coding agents on every task, inside a policy your security team approves.

Tracks
Every engineer owns an outcome, end to end

Spec before code, agents on every task, every pull request reviewed by AI and a tech lead. The target: deploy every day.

What shipped, what's next, what's blocked

In your Slack, every day, with an owner and a date on every blocker.

Who it's for

Is a managed team the right model for your team?

In a Dedicated Team you run the work and a BEON tech lead carries the technical load. In a Managed Team BEON runs the tracks and the release, and answers for what ships; you set the outcome and accept the result. Outsourcing fits a fixed-scope project, with the vendor owning the work.

A roadmap and a budget

And nobody free on your side to run another team.

The way the best teams work today

Specs before code, agents on every task, every pull request reviewed by AI and a human.

Done being the project manager

You've run augmented engineers before and ended up doing the project management yourself.

Not sure a managed team is the right model?

If you'd rather run the team yourself or only need seats, compare all five engagement models.

How a track ships

One engineer, one outcome, from spec to production

The unit of work is a track: an outcome from your roadmap, owned by one engineer from the first conversation to production and the telemetry after. Agents do the first pass of everything; humans decide, review and approve. Six stages, each with an owner, a document you can inspect and a metric you can follow, written in the operating manual before kickoff.

How we run every track. Click a stage.
Stage 04 of 06

Review, twice

Owner: BEON
What we run

First an AI reviewer with the whole repo as context, in a fresh session, with a structured verdict and the lessons the repo has taught it. Then the tech lead, with the system in mind. Humans approve; agents never merge.

Practices
AI review on every pull request, full-repo contextTech lead reviewTests with coverage targetsStatic analysis and dependency scanningGates that block the merge
What you can inspect
Review record per pull requestTest and coverage reportsScan results
The metricReview delay and defect escape rate

AI agents, four limits: a human approves every merge and release; bounded scope, least privilege; every action on record; anyone on the team can stop it. Tools and models named in the operating manual, inside your AI policy. The manual lives in your repo and stays yours.

The Nearshoring Protocol™, all seven modules on

What's included in a managed team

Module of the Nearshoring Protocol™
01Recruitment & Vetting
BEON
Every engineer on the team goes through the full vetting process, with the tech lead in the technical interview. You read the report before you meet them.
02Onboarding & Equipment
BEON
Work-only laptops, enrolled in MDM, set up with the licenses and access each role needs, recovered at offboarding.
03Employment & Compliance
BEON
EOR or AOR, payroll, benefits, PTO, NDA and IP assignment in your favor. One monthly invoice.
04Talent Experience Management™
BEON
A Talent Experience Manager behind every engineer: check-ins about every two weeks, growth plan, replacement within four weeks.
05Team Design & Tech Lead
BEON
A team blueprint from your roadmap (roles, seniority, time zone and monthly cost); a tech lead who sets direction, writes the team standards and reviews code.
06Delivery Management
BEONNot in Dedicated Team
The module that turns a Dedicated Team into a managed one: we run the tracks, from spec to production, and answer for what ships, when, and at what quality. Four things it covers:
Plan & rhythmTracks, specs and the daily updateA BEON PM runs the track board: every outcome has an owner, a spec you approved and a state. Shipped, next and blocked in your Slack every day, with an owner and a date on every blocker.
OwnershipDelivery time and quality are oursWe commit to the plan and answer for dates and quality. If it slips, we raise it first, with a recovery plan. You accept what ships.
Technical directionArchitecture and technical decisionsOur tech lead decides, within your constraints and security policy, and writes it down (ADRs, standards). Join whenever you want a seat.
WorkflowsHow the software gets built and releasedA written operating manual in your repo (how the team works, stage by stage, approved by you), and a track that runs from spec and plan to building with agents, two reviews, release and observing. Six stages below.
07Governance & Security
BEON
Access lifecycle, device posture, control mapping, incident path and offboarding, operated by BEON IT with your security team.

What stays with you: the outcome, the product decisions and the acceptance of what ships.

Who is on a managed team, and why they stay

Project manager
Has run nearshore teams. Joins your Slack and runs the kickoff.
Tech lead
Has shipped in your stack. Sets direction, writes the team standards, reviews code.
AI-native engineers
AI agents on every task, AI review on every pull request, a human approving every merge.
82%still on the team at 24 months, when the role continues
Why they stay

A Talent Experience Manager checks in with each engineer about every two weeks, on four things:

Career
Goals, and a review every semester.
Performance
How the work is going, from both sides.
Feedback
Yours, collected on a fixed cadence and acted on.
Retention
Salary, workload or an outside offer, raised early.
The process, written down

How we build and run a managed team

How we take a managed team from your roadmap to production, and keep it there. Measured on our own teams.

Before kickoff

Roadmap intake

Start from what has to ship.

One or two sessions: what has to ship in the next quarters, what your team can't cover, how you'll know it worked.

What this step prevents, by role

Run by BEON solutions lead.

You receive a written scope for the team.

1–2sessions on what has to ship, before anyone sizes the team.

Escalation

When something doesn't work: a recovery plan

1owner for escalation, named before kickoffOn our side, with a response-time commitment. The PM raises it first.
Delivery slips

The PM raises it first, with the blocker log and a recovery plan. One escalation owner on our side, named before kickoff, with a response-time commitment.

An engineer isn't a fit

Replacement within four weeks, through the full vetting process, at no extra cost. The tech lead keeps the context in the meantime.

The PM or tech lead isn't a fit

We replace them. The engineers stay.

A stage of our workflow doesn't fit

Take it back. The operating manual is per stage; the rest keeps running.

Your priorities change

The backlog changes with them; scale the team up or down with 30 days' notice. No severance, no exit fee.

The engagement ends

The code, the repo, the documentation and the records stay with you. Access revoked, devices recovered, payroll closed, in one workflow.

Security and accessFull governance

Full governance, operated by BEON

Governance & Security is ours to operate, inside your policy. Eleven things you can see before the team touches production.

03
How the team builds and releasesOur lifecycle, stage by stage, approved by you
04
Which AI agents touch your codeNamed, bounded scope, least privilege. A human approves every merge
05
Pipeline securitySecrets outside the repo, branch protection, dependency scanning
06
AccessPer engineer, per system, minimum level
07
Access reviewsQuarterly and on every role change
08

09
Your compliance frameworkControl mapping before day one
10
IncidentsWho is notified, how fast, what is recorded
11
OffboardingAccess revoked, devices wiped, payroll closed, in one workflow

Because BEON also runs the pipeline and the release, the control mapping covers CI/CD and the agents on your code, not only people and devices.

FAQs

Managed engineering team FAQs

What is a managed engineering team?
A team of senior engineers with a BEON tech lead and a BEON project manager. You set the outcome and accept what ships; BEON runs the team, in your repo and your Slack.
Do I lose control of what gets built?
No. Priorities, product decisions and the acceptance of what ships stay with you, in writing. What you hand off is the running of the team: the plan, the rhythm, the reviews, the reporting.
How is this different from hiring an agency?
The team is yours: it works in your repo and your tools, the IP is yours, and the team stays after the first release. An agency delivers a scope and leaves; a managed team delivers a roadmap and stays. Staff augmentation vs managed services, explained.
How do I know what's happening?
A daily update in your Slack from the PM: what shipped, what's next, what's blocked, with owners and dates. Plus a weekly track review with you, and a quarterly review of the team.
What makes this different from adding engineers?
The process. Every engineer owns an outcome from spec to production, agents do the first pass of every task, every pull request is reviewed by AI and then by a tech lead, and the operating manual that makes it work stays in your repo.
Who runs the work on a managed team, and how is that different from a Dedicated Team?
BEON runs the tracks: a tech lead and a project manager take each outcome from spec to production with our operating manual and our agents, and you set the outcome. In a Dedicated Team you run the work and a BEON tech lead carries the technical load. Compare all five engagement models.
Do you run our whole software development lifecycle?
Yes, that is the model: spec, plan, build with agents, review twice, release, observe. Six stages, each with an owner, a document and a metric, written in an operating manual you approve and keep. Keep any stage you'd rather own.
