Focus on Planning & Design
We seek to avoid the common pitfalls that occur during the early stages of new initiatives. Our process guidelines ensure a clear understanding of your requirements for reduced risk and optimal flexibility. We infuse your projects with a commitment to best practices. We utilize design patterns to model complex systems, enable design/code reuse, maximize flexibility, speed development, and improve quality. Given the cost and risks associated with software development, our process emphasizes project planning. Our project plans reflect the full software development lifecycle and real-world experience gained from many enterprise software projects. As appropriate for a given situation, we have utilized waterfall, spiral, scrum, extreme programming, and Rational Unified Process (RUP) methodologies. We are quality focused and believe in testing, tuning, and stress testing systems. ScaleIT stays abreast of industry trends and shares this experience during engagements. suggested reading list
