Every project has its unique set of requirements and nuances. The project in question may be a new development, existing project migration, technical administration, offshore / onsite development etc. Each and many such situations will demand that we look at it uniquely. At Kites Softwares our methodology reflects and supports our concept of a business solutions. The clarity we try to achieve for any given business service or situation guides our methodology and our processes are geared towards realizing this clarity.
Our long-standing stead in the business-consulting domain, has led to a robust, time tested and live guidelines that dictate our structured methodology. The guiding tenets to our methodology involve the process of understanding, discovery, assimilation and proposition.
The quality of a proposed solution is completely dependent on the depth of understanding or comprehension of the problem it is trying to address.
This underlying thought process defines our first stage of the consulting process. In this stage, all we try to do is listen, understand and seek clarifications. Our business analysts make all efforts to gain insight to all your stated and implicit needs.
We firmly believe in staying away from proposing solutions or models unless complete clarity is obtained on all your current needs and future expectations.
Though a typical scenario in offshore development is something like:
Thorough System Study
Our business consultant will conduct a one to one discussion with the client. This helps to understand the client’s needs, business objectives and marketing goals.
System Design
Our Technical Architects advise the client on options available to him with respect to architectural approaches and technology solutions for project implementation.
Confirmation
Based on the System Design and technology chosen, the development team of programmers, graphic designers and project managers will draft a development plan for the project with cost and time estimates.
Incremental Development
This is the stage where the project is actually off the ground. Kites softwares will build the application in progressive phases or increments. Incremental delivery permits experimentation of complex solutions during the course of development. This approach facilitates modifications through hands on exposure to the delivered increment.
Installation and training
Once the system is installed on the production servers, comprehensive training is extended to the clients’s IT/MIS personnel: not only to administrator and maintain it, but also to understand the underlying technology and development tools. The end- users are trained to use the application effectively. Follow-up action in terms of close monitoring of the system and applications ensures immediate response to issues.
