What cannot be measured, cannot be controlled.
Our project delivery framework is based on best practices of ISO and SEI CMM
guidelines. Defined procedures are implemented in a controlled environment for
many project delivery aspects including:
* Project Management
* Communication Strategies
* Risk Management
* Size & Effort Estimation
* Quality Assurance Management
* Development Lifecycle Management
* Project Metrics
* Release Management
* Change Control
* Support Management
* Documentation
* Customer Satisfaction Studies
At Infogate, we continuously track, evaluate and assimilate latest developments
in software engineering & creative research paradigms. Consequently, we develop
software of the highest quality for clients by selecting the most appropriate
software paradigm, from among - Linear Sequential Model: Waterfall (classic life
cycle); Prototyping; Rapid Application Development (RAD); Evolutionary Models:
Incremental, Spiral, Object Oriented, Component-based; and, Rational Unified
Process (RUP).
Our Quality Management System mandates collection of project matrix information
at all stages of a project including Effort Variance (%), Schedule Variance (%),
Defect Density, Productivity, Efforts till-date (PD), % Completion, project
schedule, issues and risks, tasks completed during the reporting period, etc.
These metrics help in tracking of the project performance and compliance to the
client requirements. The analysis of these figures helps in identification of
process improvements and continuous performance improvements in subsequent
engagements.
We adopt a tool-based approach, where appropriate. Our QMS lays a strong
emphasis on Defect Prevention throughout the project life cycle. Emphasis is on
catching defects as early as possible in the software development life cycle.
Consequently, QA activities such as – independent reviews/inspections,
root-cause analysis, internal quality audits and software quality assurance -
are conducted at predetermined intervals throughout the project life cycle.
Strong management focus of each project is ensured through monthly Project Board
Meetings. Metrics have been defined for measuring, tracking and reporting on all
aspects of software quality.
As a result, we set and meet aggressive organizational quality metric baselines
Year on Year.
