Why not hire a freelancer?

Freelancers are your go to if you have a working software that needs small modification. But if you are building your software from scratch or require complex modifications, there’s no way around employing all the roles needed in the software engineering process. That being, a UI/UX Designer (To ensure optimal user experience and a professional software), a business analyst (to translate your requirements into technical requirements with technical terminology and restrictions to avoid ambiguity), a product owner (To serve as the single communication line between the client and the team, set priorities, and maintain backlogs), a scrum master (To lead the agile team), an agile team of developers, and a quality control engineer (To ensure a bug free environment).

What are the drawbacks of cheap offshore software development companies?

When developing software, any group or individuals can make it function. But in order to be ready for scalability, maintainability and reliability, there’s no way around employing experienced software architects to make the correct custom design, as there’s no “One size fits all” code design in software engineering. Bad design could end up causing performance bottlenecks, a high cost for modifications, and low end user satisfaction.

  • Reliability is the probability that a system performs correctly during a specific time duration. During this correct operation: No repair is required or performed. The system adequately follows the defined performance specifications.
  • Scalability is the measure of a system’s ability to increase or decrease in performance and cost in response to changes in application and system processing demands. (Enterprises that are growing rapidly should pay special attention to scalability when evaluating hardware and software.)
  • Maintainability The ease (Cost and time wise) with which a software system or component can be modified to correct faults, improve performance or other attributes, or adapt to a changed environment. (Maintainability is a direct product of good software and database design)
What's your timeline and pricing process?

We define the team roles required for your project, from which we derive the average cost of your projects’ man hour.We suggest a monthly number of man hours based on our analysis to allocate to the project to ensure an adequate delivery pace. Finally, we charge you a fixed monthly price that corresponds to a fixed number of man hours for the defined roles.

What's our client on boarding process?

Usually when a client approaches us, they have a rough idea of the solution they need, as well as an understanding of the problem they’re trying to solve or the market need they’re trying to fulfil.
We begin by understanding the client’s requirements then performing “Requirements analysis” for the client’s requirements to output accurate technical specification documents for the required product. The requirement documents serve as the blueprint of the product.
Resources and cost estimation are performed simultaneously with the requirements analysis.

After the client approves the specification and estimation documents, we’re able to begin the software engineering pipeline.

What is "Requirements Analysis"?

requirements analysis focuses on the tasks that determine the needs or conditions to meet the new or altered product or project, taking account of the possibly conflicting requirements of the various stakeholders, analyzing, documenting, validating and managing software or system requirements.

Requirements analysis is critical to the success or failure of a systems or software project. The requirements should be documented, actionable, measurable, testable, traceable, related to identified business needs or opportunities, and defined to a level of detail sufficient for system design.requirements analysis focuses on stakeholder identification, measurable goal, and use cases; and can be classified into the following points:

  • Customer requirements
  1. Statements of fact and assumptions that define the expectations of the system in terms of mission objectives, environment, constraints, and measures of effectiveness and suitability
  • Architectural requirements
  • Structural requirements
  • Behavioral requirements
  • Functional requirements
  1. Functional requirements explain what has to be done by identifying the necessary task, action or activity that must be accomplished. Functional requirements analysis will be used as the toplevel functions for functional analysis.
  • Non-functional requirements
  1. Non-functional requirements are requirements that specify criteria that can be used to judge the operation of a system, rather than specific behaviors.
  • Performance requirements
  • Design requirements
How does Agile process promote trust and reliability?

Continuous development, integration, and delivery are the foundations of Agile contracts, therefor the client continuously validates the shippable output every sprint through the length as the contract persist

What's our software engineering pipeline?

The project manager forecasts the required resources based on the business analyst’s estimations, set up the required environments for managing the project, and on boarding the required team members. After which, the agile process begins where the product owner breaks down the high-level features each sprint into low level implementable features that can enter the development pipeline. Then, the UI/UX team brainstorms and develops the UI, which can then be given to the development team to design the database, server architecture and code then implement the features starting with the highest priority ones. Then the quality control team tests and reports bugs for the development team to enter the bug-fixing pipeline. All while simultaneously maintaining project documents, version control, and continuous deployment.
Finally, after each sprint the client is asked for validation and approval for the finished work as well as the new sprint’s plan.

We define the team roles required for your project, from which we derive the average cost of your projects' man hour.

We suggest a monthly number of man hours based on our analysis to allocate to the project to ensure an adequate delivery pace.

Finally, we charge you a fixed monthly price that corresponds to a fixed number of man hours for the defined roles.

We need to allocate the right resources for you, and that can take time. Usually, we begin immediately after signing the contract but sometimes, we require a buffering period of up to 2 week to adequately allocate the required resources.

No, Not at all, your contract with us can be for as long as it takes and you can pay monthly.
