Offshore Software Development
and Maintenance

Management philosophy:

• Focus on key accounts only
• Focus on Quality vs Quantity; Vision is not to be an Organization with thousands of people or even hundreds
• Evolution of a new development philosophy - "Customer intuitive"
• Maintenance & Support using the philosophy "Fix it once and for all"
• Dedicated Program Manager with more than 10+ years experience
• Option to run a mix mode program (Managed + Staff augmentation)

Challenges:

• Meeting the requirement of Rich User Interface, perfect to pixel was a big challenge. This was overcome by involving client and developing the interface as per their specifications. Use of JQuery to achieve better user interface and animation effects.
• Developing the Customized Pop up was difficult and was achieved after multiple rework and research in JQuery.
• Picture comparison for comparing the pre and post procedure images. Using JQuery and research helped in accomplishing this.

Agile Development Philosophy:

Customer intuitive

• If business knows clearly what needs to be done -> Waterfall
• If business needs to evolve what they really want -> Agile

• Build for the future - keep flexibility as much as possible
