Onshoring

WHO THIS IS FOR

Project directors running several digital products under one programme

You sit at a big-cap firm or multi-product group where several digital products share a programme budget, a compliance framework, and your accountability — but delivery capacity is spread across offshore teams, agencies, and internal backlogs that never quite keep up.

You used to offshore because it was cheaper. AI has changed the maths. Governed onshore delivery can now be faster, more auditable, and more cost-effective than adding another team twelve time zones away — without the communication tax or compliance guesswork.

THE SITUATION

Offshoring stopped being the efficient answer

Offshore headcount looked like savings until you counted the hidden cost: time zones that slow decisions, requirements lost in translation, security questionnaires nobody could answer authoritatively, and quality that varied sprint to sprint. When you are accountable to several product owners at once, that overhead compounds faster than velocity.

What breaks first

Architecture drift across products because each offshore stream optimises locally. Programme boards asking for spend-to-outcome mapping you cannot produce from opaque timesheets. Critical releases waiting on stand-ups in another timezone while compliance deadlines do not move.

HOW WE START

Onshore governed delivery, onboarded in days

Product and programme context

We capture how your products relate: shared platforms, compliance requirements, release cadences, and where capacity bottlenecks actually sit. A working understanding of your estate before the first sprint — not a generic vendor onboarding deck.

Governance and access setup

ISO 27001 baseline, UK data residency, repository access, and review workflows configured to your programme standards. Compliance and delivery happen in the same conversation, in your timezone.

DELIVERY

Onshore capacity on demand, priced per token

£5 per million tokens. No minimum commitment.

Blaze platform access and Aduro expertise at standard rate. Tag us in for a sprint on product A, architecture review on product B, or a security pass across the portfolio. Scale up when a release demands it; scale down between programmes. No bench fees, no retainer lock-in.

Multi-product capacity from one governed platform

The same skills, task definitions, and human review standards apply whether we are touching one codebase or five. Context compounds across your estate — so later work is faster than the first engagement.

Transparent cost per issue

Every piece of work is visible and trackable before it starts. You see scope, cost, and output — no opaque timesheets, no surprise invoices at month end.

WHAT YOU GET

Onshore delivery without building a department

• On-demand access to architecture, delivery spikes, code review, and specialist skills

• Governed AI delivery with human review on every output — in your timezone

• ISO 27001 baseline and UK data residency as standard

• Transparent token pricing — scale per product, per sprint, per programme

• Path to fully managed delivery when the portfolio outgrows ad-hoc support

WHY BLAZE

Onshoring that actually works

• Cheaper and faster than offshore when you count communication and compliance cost

• Capacity across multiple products from one governed platform

• No retainer lock-in, no bench fees, no timezone friction on critical decisions

• Same compliance baseline as fully managed clients

• Deeply human — we will tell you when a feature is a bad idea

WHEN TO GO FULLY MANAGED

When the portfolio outgrows ad-hoc support

When several products need guaranteed capacity, when compliance demands a dedicated team who know your estate, or when you want one partner embedded across the programme — that is when fully managed makes sense. On-demand onshoring is the flexible entry point. Fully managed is where serious multi-product delivery lives.
