Building an in-house Testing Centre of Excellence

A client’s outsourced QA model was not delivering. We stepped in, took ownership, and helped the client build its own Testing Centre of Excellence so it could rely on its own team in the long run.

CLIENT

Enterprise client

SERVICE

QA consulting on a TCoE

STARTING POINT

Under-performing outsourced QA vendor

GOAL

Self-reliant, in-house QA

Baseline

QA process, team composition and skills defined

Roadmap

A detailed QA maturity roadmap for adoption

In-house

A TCoE run by the client’s own team

The challenge

An outsourced QA model that was not working

The existing QA vendor was not delivering the results the client needed. It wanted a team to take ownership immediately, set processes up properly, hire the right people for key roles, and become self-reliant on QA instead of depending on external vendors.

Our approach

01 Plan skills

Set out a clear plan for the skills needed across each testing team and type of testing.

02 Set up the TCoE

Guided the client step by step in setting up its own Testing Centre of Excellence.

03 Raise maturity

Provided ongoing support to lift the team’s QA maturity.
