Estimating
So it is said we should triple the estimates we’re given by the developers. The reality is that, as of 2004, software development projects are only successfully completed 31% of the time [ref].
By leveraging agile techniques and trusted patterns, our teams achieve project objectives at nearly three-times that rate. You come with a budget, and we’re equipped to determine how to get the most out of it. Up-front quotes for development projects cause a chasm between the needs of the sponsoring organization and those of the development team by placing an artificial barrier in the way of production. Corners get cut, user interaction with the development process is hampered, and projects fail.
By focusing on a core set of initial requirements, we can build out functional, yet relatively simplistic, implementations of your continually developing requirements, nearly on-demand. Weekly feature updates (at least during the primary user-interaction testing and immediately following “public” launch) enable us to deliver the most valuable improvements within days of identification.
We don’t quote fixed rate work. We simply promise to deliver as much as possible in as little time as possible given your intimately unique needs.
Software is never really finished, so we don’t set an end date on our projects. Neither should you.
