Components for Success
The development cycle of a software
solution can be drawn in parallel to the steps taken in developing
building architecture. Before designing the positioning of the
windows, the doors and roof- line, it is first necessary to design
the dimensions of each room. This is analogous to the design of the
tables within a database structure. Once the tables are designed, it
becomes possible to design the user interface.
Prior to having a builder assess the cost of building a home, it is
first necessary to have designed a complete set of blue prints. This
is exactly how we approach the process of building a software
application. We believe the client should be able to review the
entire user interface and reports prior to the process of building
the application. This is why we have invested in and built our own
application development system that we use to provide our clients
with detailed program specifications.
