Technology Management and Software Development Outsourcing

Speed to market, cost reduction, quality and reliability are all business drivers that motivate our customers to partner with us on their strategic software development project. At Santeon, choosing the development model, technology and team is directly mapped to achieving business objectives. No two customers or businesses are alike; therefore, we do not believe that a cookie-cutter approach to building software applications and systems is the correct path to success. Therefore, our approach to software development is highly customizable and flexible yet follows defined management oversight to ensure accurate delivery and success.

While the path to building software may take different models, use different technologies and involve various teams, our primary goal is the "end-user". At the center of any software is an end-user that will make the final decision on the usability and usefulness of the software. If the software is not usable, no process or technology will be capable of changing that outcome.

Regardless of the process, development model, technology or team, we always begin with the end-user in mind ensuring the final delivery exceeds end-user expectations and satisfies their experience using the software by following the process below:

• Design concept and Vision
• User Interface mock-ups
• Wireframes and models
• High-level Architecture design
• Component design and development
• Component integration
• Testing
• Deployment

We work with our clients at the initiation of each project to determine the degree of formality used to deliver a solution, we factor in cost, time, objective, requirements an technology to reach the decision the maps to the customer corporate objectives.
