The short answer

What is the Hybrid Model?

The Hybrid Model combines DataBank operational support with internal team involvement across document workflows, content platforms, and business processes. Instead of fully outsourcing operations or relying entirely on internal resources, responsibilities are shared based on workload, expertise, business priorities, and internal capacity.

This approach gives organizations flexibility to scale support over time while maintaining visibility into workflow operations, decision-making, and process ownership. Responsibilities can be divided by workflow stage, platform ownership, operational function, or support level, creating a flexible structure that adapts as business needs evolve.
