The work on the project is divided into several phases that can be repeatable depending on the solution and used methodologies. All the steps are approved by the customer.
Discovery phase is the initial stage of a software project, which helps to define its goals, scope, and limitations. This phase is perfect for analyzing the information related to the project and understanding the target audience of the future software product. The Discovery phase is performed either remotely or by the client to fully immerse the team into the process and find out all requirements for the future system.
To have a clear picture of what a project should represent, different specialists that have experience in their particular areas are involved:
Our BA will determine the main goal of the project and facilitate communication between stakeholders and the development team to ensure everyone is aligned.
In compliance with your requirements, our UI/UX designers can develop a prototype to evaluate the visual components of the project before creating actual UI elements.
Our professionals will evaluate the technical aspects of the proposed solution and will offer the appropriate technologies, platforms, and tools to ensure the software aligns with your goals .
Our certified Project Managers align processes and documentation with PMI standards to ensure all stakeholders are satisfied and the project executed efficiently.
The SRS document contains a detailed description of your future product, which tech stack will be used for the development process, the array of features the software will possess, and what architecture it will have.
A customer gains the preliminary prototype, which helps to get the insight of how the future project will look, its interface, and how it’s supposed to work before starting the software development process.
All the deliverables, milestones, and estimates will be documented in the Scope of work (SOW) in the final project specification. You’ll have a clear picture of responsibilities and how the development process will go.
During the Development phase of the software development process, the focus shifts to building the actual product. Based on the specification and design requirements, the process is divided into short sprints, and the team decides on the front-end and back-end technologies.
Our development team writes the code based on the design documents and specifications, translating them into functional software components.
Each component or module of the software is tested individually to ensure that it functions as expected before moving on to the integration phase.
During integration, various modules of the software are combined into a single product, ensuring seamless functionality across all systems.
Code reviews are conducted regularly to ensure that best practices are followed and quality is maintained at each step of the development process.
During the Testing phase, quality assurance (QA) is essential to ensure that the software works as intended. This phase is where all the features are tested to eliminate errors and ensure the product meets the specifications.
We prepare detailed test cases and scenarios, ensuring all possible situations are covered during the testing process.
Test cases are executed to identify defects, and all results are logged accordingly to analyze the software's performance under different conditions.
Any defects or issues discovered are reported with full details, enabling our team to address them before moving forward.
Development and Testing phases are usually performed simultaneously on each milestone, while the team continues to write a specification for the next one. The development goes on taking into account the results of the previous stage, new ideas, and desires. This is how all milestones are successfully implemented.
The Deployment phase involves preparing the final product and deploying it in the customer's environment. Here, additional customization and configuration are performed to ensure smooth operations.
The Maintenance phase ensures the system continues to function as intended with ongoing support, bug fixing, and new feature integration. The software is regularly updated to meet the client's evolving needs.
A pricing model where the project cost is agreed upon in advance and remains unchanged throughout the entire lifecycle. It is suitable for projects with clearly defined requirements and limited changes.
The cost is based on the time and resources spent, with the client paying for the actual hours worked and resources used. This model offers flexibility for projects with changing requirements or an uncertain scope of work.
This approach involves a set budget for the project with some flexibility in the scope of work. The project team can adjust the scope within the allocated budget to accommodate necessary changes.
When choosing our outstaffing services (IT outsourcing services, dedicated developers team, IT staff augmentation services), you add our specialists to your team to implement your project, which helps reduce business costs. Payment is made at a fixed rate.
After the job is done, the warranty and bug-fixing period are handled at no extra cost.
