Phases of Software Development

The starting point of any software project.

Accelerance gains deep understanding about your business and your software needs with a unique 2-day kickoff workshop. During this time spent together, we discuss and identify:

Team and Company Background
Existing Products & Services
Goals & Expectations
Your Business & Software Vision
Software Priorities
Project Logistics
Your development team
Development processes
Technologies & platforms

Kickoff is Typically Done in 2 Business Days

The Kickoff starts on a mutually agreed upon date as quickly as you’re ready to begin and will be complete within 2 business days.

Gaining a deeper understanding.

The Accelerance Discovery Process is a quick and intense effort to define your initial software plan. The team includes the stakeholders from your organization who can communicate the business problem to be solved, the set of key ideas (features) to be included along with your Accelerance software leadership team includes (as needed): a technical lead, a project manager, designers, developers and architects. Accelerance will perform analysis, estimation, architectural design, and create a Discovery Report with all our findings.

User Experience that applies the power of your software.

3: Product Design
You've got one shot to give your customers or users a compelling software product that truly offers real value. If your solution misses the mark, it is difficult and expensive to go back to the drawing board and try again. Many hear “Product Design” and they think about graphics and fonts and colors, or Apple’s ubiquitous white, sleek consumer gadgets. Those are examples of design elements, but they are not the design of the entire product.

Truly great Product Design comes from doing the research and analysis necessary to understand who are the people that will use your software; how, when and why will they use it; what are the actual problems these people are experiencing, which are so painful or costly that they will willingly change their behavior to adopt your solution? At what point in time, in their work day, in their life, are the features of your product going to be the most relevant?

During Accelerance Product Design, we'll gain thorough understanding of your users. We'll explore the how, when, where and why of the problems you need to solve. Then, we'll craft a User Experience that applies the power of your software to relieve or even eliminate those problems.

Putting it all together.
