Why Choose alligatortek for Software Development?
Our phased implementation methodology is designed with your needs in mind every step of the way. Our unique two-phased approach has contributed to our success. In addition, we pride ourselves in providing you with a fixed price bid rather than using an hourly time and materials agreement. A fixed price bid will provide you with the added confidence that you will not have any additional unexpected costs prior to implementation.
Requirements Phase
Listen & Explore
Your assigned Project Manager and Business Analyst Team are dedicated professionals who will meet with your Key Stakeholders and Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) to listen and explore your business needs. During the initial meeting, they will document your needs and raise questions to trigger new ideas or drill down into specific discussion points that are critical to the success of your business.
Envision the Solution
Our team will put together a personalized proposal that will include details on how our solution will meet or exceed your expectations. Our individualized proposal will include recommendations specific to your business needs.
Timeline & Cost
Our proposal will include an estimated timeline and total cost for the project based on our understanding of your needs. There will not be any surprises or added costs along the way.
Proposal Acceptance
Once the proposal is accepted, your assigned Project Manager and Business Analyst Team will move with you into the Application Design Phase. Our approach of having the same team of experts with you every step of the way from requirements gathering through implementation has proven invaluable to our clients. By working closely, we form a great working relationship with our customers. We pride ourselves in going above and beyond to service our customer’s needs.
Application Design Process Phase
Design the Solution
