How Can Onward Software Outsourcing Services Help You?

OUR SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

Our approach to custom software development combines benefits from several standard development process models. We have a well-defined, predictable, and highly manageable process while allowing for a degree of refinement, flexibility and results review after each major phase.

 

In a typical project we have the following major phases:
Analysis and Discovery

We define the boundaries of the system, we document assumptions, business, security, and scalability requirements. We refine our documentation based on the client’s feedback.

Technical Design
The Application Architect designs the architecture of the system, its conceptual model, and creates technical diagrams. We also create a UI prototype, deployment scenario for the application, and start defining our quality assurance approach. 
Implementation

The implementation starts with a project skeleton that contains all defined components. It begins with an empty implementation and it grows in time as we progress. The growing application demonstrates progress to our clients. All progress is tracked and reported to the client on a regular basis. 

Our QA specialists start developing test plans and do preliminary testing of the modules being developed.

Stabilization
The formal Stabilization phase starts as soon as modules have been developed and it ensures the quality of each individual function as well as that of the entire system overall. All changes in the source code are limited and controlled by the technical team leaders and require their approval.
Delivery

If needed, we design a deployment procedure at the time of the Technical Design phase, and then we test it regularly during the Implementation and Stabilization phases.  

In the beginning of the Delivery phase, we run these procedures to migrate data from older versions of the application (or other applications) to the new application database in the staging environment. This ensures a minimum of issues and minimal downtime during the final application deployment.
