Getting The Job Done and Making People Happy

Those are the basics of good custom development.  The principles are timeless and simple, but successful execution is rare and not often found.  In 2004, the Standish Group found that only 34% of IT projects succeeded, which was a huge 100% improvement from their previous study in 1994, but still represents a failure rate of 66%.

The required steps to solve this problem are both simple and still rare (but improving).

  1. Do the project in small bite-sized working increments.  The work is more manageable, everything in the process can be improved, and clear cut success can be demonstrated in a few months rather than unforeseen failure in a few years.
  2. Use the best possible tools, languages, and frameworks for the job.  Using the right platform can mean a minimum of a four fold improvement in productivity, and at times ten to twenty fold improvement.  There has been signficant progress in all areas, but especially in internet technologies in the past ten years.  We stay on top of all of the developments in this area, and can recommend from experience the best way to solve your project needs.
  3. Hire the best developers.  Numerous studies have documented a 10 times productivity difference between software developers.  As a result, you want the most productive developers on your project, not the least productive ones.
