However, the global trend is shifting from a traditional “service provider – client” relationship to a more integrated “strategic partnership” model, where both sides collaborate to co-develop technology, share expertise, and grow together in the long term.
Recently, Hachinet had the honor of welcoming a delegation of Japanese clients to visit and work directly at its office. This visit was not only an opportunity for technical discussions but also a significant step toward building a deeper and more strategic partnership.
On-site Working Experience at Hachinet
During their visit to Vietnam, the Japanese delegation directly explored Hachinet’s working environment and project execution model.
The meeting took place in an open and collaborative atmosphere, where both sides had direct discussions with project managers and engineering teams.
Hachinet introduced:
- Organizational structure and project execution model
- Software development processes aligned with international standards
- Experience in Japanese market projects
- Offshore development capabilities
- Haken-style IT staffing services
- Quality assurance and delivery management systems
The client highly appreciated the transparency, professionalism, and flexibility of Hachinet’s engineering team.

Two key cooperation models were discussed:
Offshore Development
Both sides explored expanding offshore development in Vietnam to:
- Accelerate product development
- Scale teams efficiently
- Optimize operational costs
- Leverage high-quality Vietnamese engineering talent
Haken Model (派遣)
The Haken model was also discussed as a flexible way to:
- Provide on-site engineers in Japan
- Support short- and mid-term project needs
- Address immediate staffing shortages
- Maintain project continuity
Hachinet demonstrated its capability in providing experienced engineers including BrSEs, backend/frontend developers, QA, and PM/PMO roles.
From Service Provider to Strategic Partner
A key highlight of this visit was the shared vision of evolving beyond traditional service relationships.
Both sides expressed interest in:
- Co-developing technology products
- Sharing responsibility for outcomes
- Building joint engineering capabilities
- Expanding business opportunities together
- Creating long-term strategic value
This reflects the global shift toward collaborative innovation rather than transactional outsourcing.
Vietnam as a Key IT Partner for Japan
Vietnam continues to emerge as a strategic destination for Japanese IT outsourcing due to:
- Young and highly adaptable engineering workforce
- Competitive development costs
- Strong experience with Japanese clients
- Flexible team scaling capabilities
The visit concluded successfully with meaningful discussions that strengthened mutual understanding between both sides.
Hachinet continues to move forward in expanding global partnerships and delivering sustainable technology solutions built on trust, collaboration, and long-term growth.
