Acustom application
or software program solution can empower
your business with capabilities that
will streamline your operations, make
you more efficient and reduce your
costs.To develop a software solution
or any custom program, Percento follows
a methodology that has proven to be
successful over and over again, as
outlined below.
The Discovery
phase builds a shared vision of the
project among all the key stakeholders
of theproject. The PERCENTO team identifies
the tasks and deliverables that address
the requirements and goals of the
project as set by you. We structure
our phases according to the Microsoft
Solutions Framework.
1.
Defining the project structure: Identification
of an administrative structure for
the project team and the standards
for managing the project.
2. Defining your
business goals: Analysis of your business
objectives and potential opportunities
in order to identify the final deliverables.
3. Assessing the
current situation: Evaluation of the
current situation and analysis of
the difference between the current
and expected situation. The purpose
of this evaluation is to create the
problem statement and identify the
direction of the project.
4. Creating a vision
statement and defining the scope of
the project: Creation of a vision
statement that communicates the long-term
direction for guiding the team toward
its business goals. Identification
of the scope of the project defines
what will and will not be included
in the solution.
5. Defining requirements
and user profiles: Identification
of the stakeholders, end users, and
sponsors for the project and documentation
of their requirements for the solution.
This information helps to evaluate
the vision/scope of the project and
to create a solution concept.
6. Developing a solution
concept: Creation of a baseline solutions
concept, that is, the outlining of
the approach that the team will take
to create the solution. This concept
is created by using the requirements
that have been identified.
7.
Assessing risk: Identification and
assessment of the risks to the project,
and creation of a risk mitigation
plan. This is an iterative step that
is conducted during all stages of
the product life cycle.
8.
Closing the Discovery Phase: Accomplished
when the vision/scope document is
formally approved by all stakeholders
and the project team.
This phase
includes the following:
• Functional Specification
• Risk Management plan
• Master Project plan and master project
schedule
PERCENTO
organizes a project team for your software
solution project, consisting of:
1.
The Project Manager: Responsible for
managing customer communications and
expectations: Responsible for the
development process and for delivering
the solution
to the customer within the project
constraints.
2. The Developers:
Responsible for developing the technology
solution according to the specification
provided by the project management
role.
3. Testing Team:
Responsible for identifying and addressing
all product quality issues
and approving the solution for release.
This role evaluates and validates
design
functionality and consistency with
project vision and scope.
You as the client would only need
to deal with the Project manager,
addressing all your issues and concerns
with him.
Software Development Quality Process
In order to ensure the quality of
the solution that Percento Technologies
develops for you, Percento would address
the following tasks:
1) Integrate planning and conduct change control.

9) Document and monitor the team’s quality management process.
Debugging During
this phase, the testing team will
perform integration, load and
beta testing on the solution. In addition,
the team tests the implementation
scenarios
for the solution. The team focuses
on identifying, prioritizing, and
resolving issues so
that the solution can be prepared
for release.
Training - We provide training to you during the
implementation phase to ensure that
you and your
intended users of the solution have
enough knowledge to fully utilize
the software developed to its full potential.
Ownership – You have ownership of the Complete

developed. You can perform modifications
or upgrades with any
software company because of this.

Percento Technologies will fix any
problems that would be due to errors
in the code. Changes above and beyond
the scope outlined in the Discovery
Phase and prototypes are chargeable.

a new project and is be billed on
a case-to-case basis.
