Project success almost invariably relies on making sure that i's are dotted and t's are crossed. eLink understands that details count and that cutting corners only leads to later problems. eLink has developed and refined systems to ensure projects go smoothly and deliver to match or exceed the original specification. Below is a brief description of the stages in the process.
1. Brainstorming: Your requirement needs a solution. Although usually there is a clear understanding of the ultimate requirement understanding the best approach can have difficulties. This is where a focused discussion in which ideas are carefully considered from both the end-users' and developers' perspective are evaluated before taking the project further.
2. Project Planning: eLink project planning defines the structure of the system in outline form then divides the project into manageable stages. This ensures that development proceeds in a structured and time orderly way, resulting in maximum efficiency in the use of resources and hence project value for money for you the client.
3. Prototyping: eLink will create a prototype of the entire application using screen mockups that simulate the software. This allows both parties to fully understand how it will work for potential users. This approach aids understanding and facilitates rapid decision-making in the critical areas of appearance, functionality and usability.
4. Build: eLink develops software in a phased approach where possible producing discrete fully or almost fully functional modules that can be signed off at each stage and more importantly tested internally and inspected by you.
5. Testing: Comprehensive testing is a vital and often neglected part of any project. eLink has an experienced team of dedicated software testers who will using a number of manual and automated methodical processes independently check new systems for bugs. Each error is logged and resolved via eLink's Task Manager system.
6. After care: eLink takes care to ensure that projects delivered are adequately supported, reviewed and updated. eLink is equipped with trainers to provide help with new systems and a large Help Desk available by phone or email.
