# Why high-growth companies adopt the FDE model

High-growth companies adopt the FDE model — Forward Deployed Engineering — because they need someone who understands both technology and operations, and who can implement solutions directly where the problem occurs.

## What separates companies that scale from those that stall

Rapid growth exposes operational bottlenecks at brutal speed. What worked with 20 people breaks with 200\. Manual processes become a risk. Disconnected tools become a cost.

The traditional response — hire IT, open a project, wait months — doesn't work for those who need to move fast.

## What the FDE model solves

- Direct implementation in the operation, without translation layers between business and technology
- Fast deliveries: weeks, not quarters
- Focus on operational results, not technical projects
- Training the internal team during implementation

## Why high-growth companies prefer this model

- **Speed**: the FDE enters the operation and starts delivering from the first week
- **Context**: they learn the business while implementing, not before
- **Autonomy**: the internal team finishes the project knowing how to operate the solution
- **Cost**: avoids the endless cycle of consulting, discovery, and proposals
