The Software Development Lifecycle

NovaTech's software development methodology uses a proven requirements-based flow that goes from requirements to development through deployment and on to sustainment. Our process is flexible and we are able to join or contribute to your project at any point during the lifecycle. We also use a spiral approach to incrementally deliver production-quality software. This means that you obtain a quick return on your investment, get user buy-in earlier in the term of the project, and can enjoy the benefits of your new application sooner.

Custom software development can provide solutions to difficult to grasp problems or can provide workarounds for situations where third-party products will not fit your organization's particular needs. If you have legacy applications that are critical to your business, custom development may also be needed so they can interface to newer commercial software and keep your business running today while moving into the technology of tomorrow. NovaTech's development team can deliver you a custom solution that is on-time, on-budget, and meets your requirements.

Is a Hybrid Approach Right for You?

One approach that has the benefits of custom software while leveraging work that has already been done is
to use open source software. Open source software can be modified or added to according to your unique needs. Many open source software packages provide full access to the source code and include robust documentation, allowing you to avoid significiant amounts of development costs. Open source software will instantly deliver production-ready functional capability - leapfrogging you quickly through the development cycle. There's no value to reinventing the wheel so if it's been done before and can be used again, NovaTech will bring that forward. Our goal is to deliver maximum value on your IT investments!
