Why Us

Our company places a premium on professional project management. The entire software development cycle is a set of well-defined activities that generate specific deliverables, tied to milestones and management of its projects is driven by the concept of "deliverables and milestones". Through the years Ideazlab management team has settled certain steps, which are strictly followed when working on any kind of project. Doing so has always brought us high quality work results and has led each of the projects we have worked on to be a success story itself. Steps include:

Obtain Stable, Complete Requirements

Requirements must be clearly defined and prioritized before the development phase begins. Key requirements must be highlighted and dependencies identified within the context of a project. Incomplete or shifting requirements represent the single greatest risk to project success.

Assemble a Project Team

The project team provides a forum for multiple points of view and technical skills, and is central to how we plan, develop and deliver solutions. By accessing knowledge across the team's membership, we resolve problems quickly and lower project risk. We try to keep teams small to maximize effectiveness and keep management overhead low. Teams typically consist of a designated client contact, a project manager, a lead architect, and other development resources allocated according to project needs.

Provide Technology Expertise

Our staff is knowledgeable in a variety of tools and technologies, and knows how to take advantage of them to build a solution. If innovative tools are brought in to address a client's specific requirements, we thoroughly research and test the new technology to ensure the stability of the overall solution.

Develop Detailed User Interface Prototypes

Placing a prototype in the hands of the actual application users early in the process allows us to refine and freeze key requirements, even before a single line of back-end code is written.

Provide Effective Project Management

Our staff is experienced in estimating and tracking project progress, finding and making the most of available resources, and managing project risk. Daily communication between all team members is essential. It helps us to resolve issues quickly and manage client expectations accordingly.

Focus on Quality

We test all modules unit per unit as they are produced. We also build time into the schedule for system testing, so that we can be sure the final solution will operate correctly when installed on the client's system.

Maintain Extensive Documentation

We view documentation as an essential part of our job. To ease future maintenance tasks, we make a practice of extensively commenting our code. Utilizing enterprise class visual modeling tools, we provide detailed UML and data model diagrams as a part of any deliverable.
