Gain Strategic Improvements in Business Cost, Quality and Performance....
Off-site Development model reduces the cost of hardware resources required and also offers several other cost savings. Offsite development facilitates need-based allocation of resources to the project (resource loading will vary based on the requirement at each stage of the project). This model may not have as much user interaction as in the On-site model but definitely is more economical.
In the Off-site Development scenario, clients may not be required to provide development and production environments. There may be a need for the customer to visit with the development team or the team’s managers for greater efficiency.
Our Methodology
Our team meets with the customer team to work out the details of the engagement. The project scope, deliverables, screen layouts, reporting, functionality issues, timelines, etc are all defined in detail.
A small mockup of the actual application may also be developed during this phase to understand the look-and-feel of the end product.
After the definition phase, work moves to QFS facility. Deliverables and other progress reports will be made available to the customer at pre-agreed intervals.
The customer, if they choose, can be provided remote access into the development server via a VPN or some other secure means. By accessing the development server remotely, the customer can monitor progress in real time, and maintain overall control even though work is being carried out offsite ensuring the client of implementation and maintenance.
This Model is ideal for clients where:
- The scope has been defined in detail.
- The scope will not undergo any more changes once the requirements are agreed upon.
- Maintenance and minor enhancement of applications.
- Conversions and migrations to new platforms.
- Re-engineering of existing applications for new environments.
