Why outstaff for GE Digital Predix Platform? Directly hiring senior Java engineers in-house means months of recruiting, onboarding costs, and long-term payroll liability. With Smartbrain’s augmentation model, you tap a bench of pre-vetted Predix veterans in 72 hours, pay only for productive hours, and scale up or down when project phases shift. We manage HR, compliance, and hardware while you keep 100 % IP ownership. Result: faster release cycles, lower risk, and total budget transparency—all without distracting your core team from strategic innovation.
