Development process
When choosing an outsourced web programming vendor, it is essential to evaluate the methodology used to develop your application. Incredio proven low-risk web application development method is a unique blend of technical and management expertise that delivers both rapid return on investment (ROI) and long-term profitability gains. We have developed the step-by-step systems and processes to address the five key elements of successful web application development, deployment, and support:
Project scope
We begin by examining your business goals and requirements. This is an interactive process of getting us up to speed on your needs, combined with our input and ideas on what Incredio can do to maximize the success of your project. We prepare a project scope document and provide you with an initial cost estimate. At this time you can decide whether you want to move to the next step and hire Incredio to develop the functional specifications for your project.
Functional specifications
We create a detailed description of your project features and functionality, database designs, flowcharts, use case scenarios, user interface prototypes, and a final estimate of project development cost and time. Functional specifications serve as a blueprint used by the programmers and quality assurance engineers to program and test your web application. At this time you can decide whether you want to move to the next step and hire Incredio (or other firm) to develop your application.
Development and testing
This is where the rubber hits the road. During this stage, Incredio programmers, system administrators, interface designers, and quality assurance engineers work together to code and test your application on our development servers. We provide periodic progress updates and previews of the completed project modules. Incredio gives you access to our internal support portal to streamline and centralize project management and communications.
Launch
Upon the completion of development and testing stage, we setup and configure your hosting infrastructure and transfer the application from Incredio development servers to your hosting facility. Next, we conduct final tune-ups and testing, and coordinate all pre-launch activities with you using Incredio internal support portal. Upon the final review and approval, your project goes live.
Maintenance and updates
Incredio provide ongoing application support and maintenance services. Should you prefer, we will create technical documentation and administration manual and train your team so you can bring support and maintenance in-house. If you require new additional features and functionality, the development process starts again at the project scope stage.
