Turn the question around, and ask how you got up to 40 engineers? I think a team
should start small, and should add developers until its velocity levels out.

In-house development is super easy! You just keep collating feature requests,
doing them, and deploying them daily. You control all the users' hardware &
software, and you can pop the hood on the server if something goes wrong. What
am I missing?

If an enterprise is so big it has more than one kind of end-user population (say
manufacturers vs administrators), then maybe you should split the teams up based
on the stream of feature requests...
