Our Development Process

We follow an iterative development methodology that delivers working software incrementally while incorporating your feedback throughout the project.

1

Discovery & Requirements

We start with comprehensive requirements gathering through stakeholder interviews, workflow observation, and documentation review. Define functional requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, technical constraints, integration needs, and success metrics before any development begins.

2

Architecture & Design

Design system architecture, data models, API contracts, and user interfaces. Create wireframes and prototypes for validation. Select appropriate technologies, define integration patterns, plan security implementation, and establish coding standards and development environment.

3

Iterative Development

Develop in 2-3 week sprints, delivering working functionality incrementally. Each sprint includes development, code review, automated testing, and demo to stakeholders. Incorporate feedback continuously, adjust priorities based on learning, and maintain working software throughout development.

4

Quality Assurance

Comprehensive testing including unit tests, integration tests, end-to-end tests, performance testing, security testing, and user acceptance testing. Test across browsers and devices, validate data integrity, verify integrations, and ensure compliance with requirements and standards.

5

Deployment & Training

Deploy to production with proper rollout planning, data migration, cutover procedures, and rollback plans. Provide comprehensive user training, administrator documentation, operational runbooks, and knowledge transfer to your IT team for ongoing support.

6

Support & Evolution

Provide post-launch support including bug fixes, performance optimization, and user assistance. Monitor application health, gather user feedback, plan enhancements, and evolve the application based on changing business needs and technology improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does custom software development take?
Timeline depends on scope and complexity. Simple applications might deliver initial functionality in 8-12 weeks. Complex enterprise systems typically range from 6-18 months. We deliver working software incrementally throughout the project—you'll see progress from the first sprint. We provide detailed estimates after requirements are defined and adjust as needed based on learning and changing priorities.
What does custom software development cost?
Cost varies significantly based on complexity, integrations, and requirements. Simple applications might start around ₹10-15L. Enterprise applications typically range from ₹25L-₹1Cr+. We provide fixed-price estimates for well-defined projects or time-and-materials for evolving requirements. We're transparent about costs and help you prioritize features to fit budget constraints.
Do you provide ongoing support after launch?
Yes. We offer maintenance and support agreements covering bug fixes, security updates, performance optimization, user support, and minor enhancements. Support can be provided through retainer agreements or time-and-materials arrangements. We also offer training for your team to handle routine maintenance internally if preferred.
Can you integrate with our existing systems?
Absolutely. Most enterprise applications require integration with ERP, CRM, databases, or other systems. We have extensive experience integrating with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, custom databases, and legacy systems. We assess integration requirements during discovery and architect appropriate integration patterns—APIs, message queues, database replication, or file-based interfaces.
Who owns the source code?
You own the custom code we develop for your project. This is typically defined in the project agreement. You receive full source code, documentation, and deployment procedures. Third-party libraries and frameworks used in the application maintain their original licenses. We can structure agreements to fit your IP requirements.
How do you handle changing requirements?
Requirements evolve—we expect and accommodate change. Our iterative development approach makes changes easier to incorporate than waterfall methods. New requirements can be added to the backlog and prioritized for upcoming sprints. Significant scope changes may affect timeline and cost—we're transparent about impacts and work with you to adjust plans accordingly.
What happens if we need to make changes after deployment?
Post-deployment changes are common and expected. Minor changes and bug fixes are typically covered under initial support periods. Larger enhancements can be handled through follow-on development projects or ongoing development retainers. Because you own the source code and have documentation, you can also make changes internally or engage other developers if needed.
