What is build-operate-transfer?
The build-operate-transfer (BOT) model is a distinctive type of business partnership where a client company engages a BOT service provider to establish and manage a service delivery center in the form of a subsidiary company, typically in developing countries. The key feature of this model is the eventual transfer of ownership to the client after a predetermined period.
The build-operate-transfer approach derives its name from three main phases it consists of:
- Build phase, when the service provider establishes the foundations of the subsidiary company,
- Operate phase, when the BOT vendor owns the company and manages its employees,
- Transfer phase, when the companies conduct legal operations needed to transfer ownership.
Consequently, BOT is a hybrid model of service delivery that combines outsourcing with insourcing to maximize client benefits.
How to budget a build-operate-transfer (BOT) project?
Build-operate-transfer (BOT) services can be a perfect solution for organizations seeking to close their talent gaps by establishing specialized remote teams.
However, all successful BOT projects start with understanding the project costs. To make your finance considerations easier, our BOT team created a build-operate-transfer budgeting template everyone can access for free.

BOT framework use cases
The build-operate-transfer model addresses the fundamental challenge of control in outsourcing by ensuring the ultimate client’s ownership. The model is typically used by big international businesses that need an alternative to assembling an in-house team but don’t want to outsource an entire business function for an indefinite time and become dependent on third-party vendors.
Typically, companies utilize the BOT model to establish a new nearshore or offshore delivery center or recruit an entire team to develop a new product (or provide an expertise-driven service that satisfies core business needs).
BOT enables companies to achieve quick results with minimal risk involved, facilitates significant savings, grants access to an additional talent pool, and simplifies retaining the full ownership of a product.
The BOT model is best for:
- Energy transformation projects
- Large-scale infrastructure projects
- Specialized engineering and technology projects
- Digital transformation and software development projects
- Other projects in a variety of fields where businesses report a significant skills gap
