Systems and Software Development
On time, on budget, every time...
Our principals have extensive experience in architecting, designing and implementing distributed enterprise solutions and web-based applications. Our approach is architecture-centric and considers systems' non-functional requirements when making architecture and design decisions in order to choose the best solution. Through our dozens of successful engagements, we've developed a solid methodology for software development, based on a few core concepts:
- Technologies and requirements inevitably change, so software must be built in a modular manner, allowing components to be easily replaced;
- Much of the development process involves simple, but error-prone tasks; so to the extent practical, we create automated solutions to avoid error and facilitate frequent testing and integration; and
- There is no single process that works best in every case; our pragmatic approach allows development to follow iterative, agile and other commonly used methods as required by the client or the nature of the work.
