Methodology

We train our project managers and team members to implement various methodologies and approaches including Agile, SCRUM, RUP, Waterfall, CMMI and empower them to choose the process and staffing options that would work best for each specific task. As an outsource company we communicate a lot with foreign customers all over the world. PMBOK utility provides our team with a common vocabulary to discuss project details using established terminology and avoiding ambiguity. Our team is aimed to increase speed, quality and flexibility of product development. We assign for about by 7 co-located people per each project maintained by project manager. Verbal communication is highly appreciated across all team members involved in the project. This simplifies information exchange process and decreases time needed for discussions. We train our staff to be flexible and able to shift between tasks.

Our team uses project and quality oriented development as a key principle of successful cooperation with our customers. We use elements of modern methodologies and principles of software development to provide you with best software decisions.
