Hachinet Software

Vietnamese engineers for Japanese IT departments

Hachinet Software, based in Hanoi, supplies Vietnamese engineers and development projects to overseas clients. Its website is written in Japanese and speaks to Japanese IT departments that need people quickly, though the English material also describes near-shore staff who work European or American hours. The company says it has about six years of experience in staffing and software outsourcing from Vietnam.

Why it argues for building a team in Vietnam

The pitch rests on cost, age and stability. The company says many businesses have set up development teams in Vietnam to reduce risk and expense, and that work continues while the client sleeps. It points to a young national population, and says the average age at Hachinet is 26. It also describes Vietnam as peaceful and socially stable. Pricing is quoted per request: Hachinet prepares a proposal for the client to assess, or the client can choose engineers to work as part of its team with monthly payment.

Services from Java to COBOL

The services listed are offshore software development, engineer dispatch and recruitment, software maintenance, software testing, digital transformation and software integration. Java is described as the core technology, and the old material mentions experience across Java platforms such as application containers, ORM tools, UI frameworks and coding frameworks. It also lists Angular development and web design, COBOL developers drawn from partner providers, .NET development for applications that run across desktop and mobile, and Salesforce resources for clients who do not want to hire in house.

Quality and training

Hachinet says its engineers have worked on products for Japan and that it aims at what it calls Japanese quality, using a production process that meets international standards. Engineers are trained in four areas: cloud computing, mobility, business intelligence and analytics, and collaboration.

Recruitment channel

The company says it reaches Vietnam's engineers and students through Devwork, which it describes as one of the country's top three IT recruitment platforms. It combines a BestShore and offshore model to balance cost and productivity, and describes itself as a young digital transformation firm with growth ahead of it.
