Analysis
We interview you about your project. Some questions include the
following.
What problem are you trying to solve?
What results do you want to achieve when the system is complete?
It is important in this phase to get the right people involved: the decision
makers and the people who will actually use the system when it is completed.
Business Design
Using what we learned in the analysis phase we produce a detailed
business design. This specification will show you what your system will look
like upon completion.
The details of screen layouts, reports and formulas are included in this
phase.
Technical Design
This design includes the choice of language, database and tools. The
individual modules and their relationships are defined. In smaller projects
the Business and Technical Design are often combined.
Coding & Unit Testing
Each module is coded and tested. Testing is as thorough as possible.
Every path of the code should be exercised. As modules are complete they are
integrated with other completed modules
System Testing
Once all modules are completed, system testing can begin. The idea of
this phase is to exercise all possible conditions that affect the system as
a whole. The developers fix any defects found.
These modules are then reintegrated into the system.
Testing continues until all significant defects are fixed.
User training is done concurrently with this phase.
User Testing
This phase is similar to the System Testing phase except that the users
do the testing. The data and conditions should be as close as possible to
real life.
Testing continues until the users are satisfied that the system is working
according to specifications.
Documentation
This phase usually runs parallel to the System & User Testing phase. This
may include a developing a user guide, on-line help or both.
Implementation
We install our software live at your site or in the case of software for
sale to your customers, at least one beta site. We make sure all the
functions are working properly in the live environment.
Post-Implementation
We will be available to fix any problems that are discovered after the
system goes live.
This means we are there any time the system does not work according to
specifications.
We will work in either hourly and fixed price mode or a combination of both
depending on
the project. To obtain more details or to get a free one hour evaluation of
your computing
