Use of project plans for tracking and baselines
Every project implementation faces the challenge of tracing the source of issues and determining the impacts of micro-change to fully understand the implications of
each choice.
To effectively manage and build understanding of project schedules, set feasible expectations, allocate resources and manage budgets, we make use of MS project plans, MS project central server and baselines.
This enables us to leverage existing data from other system programs,
and easily present information in various formats according to the needs of
our clients. We can track data and project performance over the entire
project lifespan.
This results in heightened productivity and increased quality output for the clients.
Use of SharePoint
SharePoint may be visualized as a virtual board on which various communication/project elements are posted and viewed by multiple users/teams simultaneously.
This browser-based communication and document management platform is used to swiftly access shared workspaces and documents. It enables our clients to enjoy the power of implementing business processes, managing content and workflow and supplying access to information, crucial to
time-bound projects.
Our team utilizes SharePoint portals to improve project collaboration, share documents and improve transparency with our clients.
Version Control Tools (Team Foundation Server and Visual Source Safe)
To be successful at producing software, we have to develop effective approaches for version control. Use of Team Foundation Server improves software team collaboration and increases individual productivity. The challenges faced today to deliver effective solutions are overcome by drastically cutting down on project turnaround time.
Code Analysis Tools (FxCop and Parasoft)
The base of every successful project is built on strong code, which must be error-free. We have established a dynamic process that ensures that code is developed according to your scope and expectations. We utilize an automated infrastructure to drive this process.
Use of FxCop and Parasoft ensures that design and code defects are caught and corrected early in the development cycle. The system alerts us to issues as they emerge so we address them, avoiding any critical impact on deadlines or budgets.
Automated Testing and Load Testing Tools (Test Foundation Server and Mercury)
We utilize Test Foundation Server and Mercury automation tools for functional test, GUI test, and regression test - with support for practically every software application and environment. This results in reduction in overall project turnaround time and resource cost.
Standards compliance testing tools for accessibility, 508 etc. (JAWS)
A major issue that remains unresolved today is that tools are not commonly available that can test software applications automatically for Section 508 compliance. Added to this is the fact that very few people are experienced enough to use JAWS accurately as an evaluation tool.
We have, however, made it a point to obtain professionals with hands on expertise to utilize JAWS as a testing tool, and ensure that the Standards Compliance are met at every stage.
Bug Reporting and Tracking Software (TrackIT and Mercury)
Our clients benefit from the increased productivity and improved products due to our swift bug-tracking. These tools enable us to determine the location and type of bug specific to its own project, and eradicate it before it hampers development of the project.
