    How we do it?

    • Receipt of software requirement specification.

      • Receipt of your specification is the initial phase of the software development.

    • General analysis

      • A general analysis of technical, operational and economic feasibilities is done with business application goal on basis of project specification and then documented in form of “our understanding”.

    • Requirement estimation

      • Based on “our understanding”, estimations of risks and budget for the future stages of the development are done, then a proposal including our understanding, cost, project management method and risk management method are provided for your approval.

    • Contract signature

      • Once the proposal confirmation is done, we sign contract to get mutual agreement on obligations and responsibilities, payment etc.

    • Project startup

      • A dedicated team with required personnel is identified as well as the hardware/software environment is set up. Then a project development plan with detailed timeline of tasks, personnel arrangement and milestones is provided to ensure the project completed on time and within the budget.

    • Detailed requirement analysis & System design

      • Once the project plan is accepted, we have multiple ways of communication as necessary with your team such as conference calls, e-mail to get detailed understanding of your requirement.
      Depending on the requirement analysis, we divide the whole task into several modules and ensure our system analysts outline the system architecture with the expansibility and configurability taken into account.

    • Implementation

      • The actual software programs/codes based on the design are created. Our experienced developers follow strict coding standards and modularize the code to make debugging and future feature expandability an easy job. Unit test is carried out after a component’s completion to reduce the development time and guarantee the quality.

    • Test

      • The Developed product is thoroughly tested and handed over to you for UAT (User Acceptance Test). Any bugs or minor enhancements reported by the customer are fixed.

    • Deployment

      • The software is released to its end users with the deployment document with software prerequisites, configuration environment and deployment steps etc in it.

    • Warranty phase

      • A 90-day warranty period is accessible; we will offer free fixes if bugs are found.
