Our development team, of IT specialists, work with our clients' to develop software that exactly meets their business requirements. Our development services cover the entire software lifecycle from business analysis and the creation of functional specifications, through design and coding to testing. However, the clients have the flexibility to pick and choose which part of the lifecycle they would like to outsource to us. We have spent substantial time and effort in developing process to make this seamless and repeatable.

We follow a process model for any kind of projects. This helps in reducing overall development time and results in a limited total cost. It also allows us to clearly define client expectations early on in the project. The following steps of the cycle are given below with descriptions :

	Initial Proposal Phase : After receiving the requirement on the application development, we try to understand the broad project requirements and advise client on certain issues and give them a rough estimate of the cost and schedules that will be required to complete the proposed application or project.
	Requirements Analysis and Definition : This phase is to identify and document the user requirements for a proposed system. The process involves a Requirements Analyst (RA) who communicates with knowledgeable user(s) to understand what the requirements are. Existing systems if any are reviewed and considered at this stage.
	Analysis and Design : We spend significant time to listen and study the application scopes of the software business need and process. Then, we offer an analyzing result report and a development blueprint (Requirement Specification) .This phase includes:
	• Conceptual Design: • Functional and Non-functional Specifications • System Detailed Design • Implementation Design
	Development : The development phase involves the actual coding of the entire application. This is the most resource-intensive phase. All objects of the source code are named, versioned and carry a history log, which has details of name, date, time and reason for each change. As components of the application are complete, they are reviewed by the customer for accuracy as well as usability, as per milestone schedules. There is also an alpha deployment test phase embedded in the development phase
	Testing and Refinement : This is done by our Testers (Testers do not take part in developing the project) and then verified by the customer. During this phase the technical manual and user manual are also given to the customer
	Implementation : The deployment or implementation phase is a roll out of the application (or components of the application). This involves delivery of the software and walk-through of the installation process. It may also involve initial training of users
	Release and Maintenance : The maintenance and support phase of the project is the last section of the cycle and it continues as long as a warranty or support contract is in place
