How is the collaboration set up?

We follow several stages:

• Business analysis.
• Discovery and design.
• Team’s onboarding.

All of them can be carried out on-site or remotely.

Stage 1. Business analysis

• Analyzing initial business needs and software objectives.
• Presenting a proposal with a high-level development plan and estimation.
• Preparing SLA and signing the contract.

Stage 2. Discovery and design phase

• In-depth analysis of software development needs.
• Software solution consulting or idea productization consulting (optionally: UX and UI research, architecture design).

Stage 3. Team’s onboarding/integration into the project

• Knowledge transfer to ScienceSoft’s development team (tech requirements, code repositories, infrastructure, test documentation, process descriptions, etc.)
• Development process setup: CI/CD implementation (if needed), integration with development processes of your in-house team or other vendors’ teams.

When are on-site visits held?

Our BAs and PMs are available for pre-scheduled and ad-hoc meetings in Dallas during the whole duration of the project. Software engineers are available for pre-scheduled meetings at the project stages agreed upon in each particular case.

Apart from the on-site presence, we provide regular reporting on development and QA and assign a dedicated PM for daily remote collaboration on any project aspects.

How can I ensure that outsourcing development to HLT Global is the right choice?

• We can conduct a non-binding feasibility study to compare the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of in-house and outsourced development for your project.
• Our developers can execute a test task before we sign a contract, so you can make sure their skills match your requirements.
