METHODOLOGY
Systematic processes at every stage of the project
IT project execution
Our goal is the long-term satisfaction of our clients. When it comes to project execution, we focus on an ongoing partnership of mutual trust at every stage of the project.
We adapt all our processes and procedures to specific project and client requirements in order to achieve the highest possible level of quality. Our procedures are constantly being improved through our experience with various projects, leading to effective project outcomes. Flexibility and fast reaction times are a given.
Iterative and agile methodologies combined with our regular provision of work packages result in timely review, minimize risk, and guarantee the success of the shared project. During project execution, we follow the spiral model, favoring the agile Scrum approach for practical implementation.
Agile approach
A key success factor in our software development projects is the regular delivery of fully functioning components up until the provision of the finished product. Standard practice is to deliver the first component just a few weeks after project commencement. Our clients have the opportunity early on to test the implemented functionality against requirements. This allows us to correct the ongoing course of the project together with the client.
Our project teams use methodologies and principles from the Scrum Management Framework in order to achieve these goals.
One of the foundations of Scrum is that a client representative (Product Owner) specifies, in agreement with the team, the functionalities to be developed in the next development cycle (sprint) from the prioritized overall list of requirements (backlog). The team commits to implement the specified functionalities within the agreed time period. Ideally, the Product Owner remains available to the team for questions during this period.
This cycle is repeated following the delivery of each component until the agreed project scope has been achieved and the finished product provided.
