HOW TO START YOUR PROJECT?

Groove Technology - Software Development Process Models - 26

Discussing your business challenges

We will begin by understanding your market, current processes, challenges, goals, and your vision of the ideal solution in detail.

We will listen, ask questions, provide feedback, and challenge you constructively before we create a plan and feature set for the solution that best fits your needs.

Designing a tailored proposal

Then, with the knowledge we have gained from our discussions, we prepare and present a standardized proposal document. It sets out how we’ll work with you , along with the feature set for the planned project. It also contains forecast costs and timescales following our mutually agreed terms.

Strategic planning

Following the go-ahead, we continue the planning process. This is the project’s most interactive component, including on-site or Groove-based meetings with your project stakeholders and our design team.
