Business Applications

It will not be because we will make you yet another generic offer of cheap rates and “full-stack” developers.

 

We are all tired of cold calls and spam from outsourcing companies. (Yes, some of our less ... sophisticated... competitors quite often fail to do even the most basic homework and call to offer us their services.)

​

Instead, we would like an opportunity to demonstrate what makes our company different, and hopefully better.

​

We are not in the business of writing code.

​

Our business is to design, build, and operate information-centric systems that you can confidently grow your businesses on.

​

We focus on outcomes, always asking “How does this project help our client succeed?” We pay particular attention to optimizing the total cost for the lifecycle of the project, not just the next milestone.

​

If you want to make the most capital-efficient investment in software development and system integration – we are confident that we can earn, and keep your business.

​

We believe that our experience and the results we have demonstrated time and again, are outstanding.

 

The proof is in the dozens of our recent customer projects that are represented by in-production systems, with client references that you can speak to directly.

​

When we select and recommend technology stacks and toolchains, we consider our clients’ existing investment in team, technology, and infrastructure. We try to understand the expertise, priorities, and focus of the product management, IT and software teams, and the CISO office. We consider the costs of hiring local talent and, of course, the business’ budgetary considerations both in the short and long term.

​

We operate with complete transparency, honesty and demand the highest standards of professional and personal ethics.

 

We strive for a balance between confidence, driven by professional experience, and ego-free decision-making.

​

We strive to be at least as reliable as your FTEs. In almost 30 years of operations, having employed over 1,000 software engineers, we have never had an Intellectual Property or conflict of interest issue or competitive conflict with a client. In fact, with many of our clients, we develop a level of trust and cooperation that has allowed us to jointly author patents, and to help with sales calls and investor relations.

​

We have learned that one size does not fit all and tailor our engagements appropriately to fit the needs of our clients.

 

Every project we engage in considers the trade-offs between requirements management, real-time milestone tracking, performance and scalability considerations, branch-by-feature source control, pull-request driven peer code review, continuous integration, test automation, DevOps, business continuation/disaster recovery, cybersecurity, and the cost of support, operations and planned technology obsolescence.*

​

We ask a lot of questions, and often make a lot of suggestions and proposals. We do this because we want to understand what drives your business to success and try to eliminate the noise and distractions of irrelevancies. When working with us do not expect to hear an immediate “Yes” to every ask. You can, however, be confident, that by the end of the conversation, your stakeholders and/or product team will have understood, embraced, and committed to a course of action that your organization has set and is comfortable with.

​

We believe that it must be easy to do business with us. We embrace the “one hand to shake, one throat to choke” style of client relationship management. At a minimum, we offer a dedicated technical program manager, who resides (not just works) close to your time zone and can interact with you with communication fluency. (Or put simply, while we all have accents, you will not have to guess what we are trying to say.)

​

We invite you, with no further implied or assumed obligation, to spend an hour with us (with or without an NDA in place).

 

Whether you have an immediate need and deadline, a lagging product roadmap, or would like to brainstorm concepts or ideas, we believe that we can have an engaging and productive conversation. Of course, we do want to pitch you on our services and capabilities and the best way to do that is when we answer in-depth any and all questions you may have.

​

After that, we will wait for you to call us. We won’t call you unless you ask us to.
