The software development process at A7 International

As an experienced software consulting company, we use established processes and workflows. This way, we ensure high-quality consulting services and innovative digital solutions. At the same time, we understand that each business has unique challenges and goals and tweak our routine accordingly.

01/ Discovery

Each new project at A7 International starts with a discovery session with our consultants. Here we focus on the current situation in a client’s company and uncover issues, bottlenecks, and vulnerabilities in their software system. The next step implies offering the most suitable approaches and creating a comprehensive transformation plan to fix these issues and move forward. Finally, we carefully assess the project scope and provide the client with time and cost estimates.

02/ Planning

As soon as we identify the main issues with the existing software system, we start analyzing the possible ways to solve them. When a solution is found, we create a detailed strategic plan for making the necessary changes. In contrast to the discovery phase, where clients get a high-level assessment of the system’s vulnerabilities and weaknesses, and areas of improvement, the planning stage provides them with actionable steps.

03/ Implementation

At this stage, the A7 International team implements the necessary changes. We will put together a team of professionals best suited for the specific kind of work. We have software designers, developers, quality assurance engineers, project managers,, and more experts. We will plan the activities and monitor the work progress to ensure timely and high-quality delivery.

04/ Optimization

When the action plan is implemented, we collect user feedback and data to understand whether the implementation was a success and how we can improve the processes further. This stage implies training and consulting the client’s team. Depending on the outcomes, we either move forward to reach the customer’s next milestone or keep working on the existing issues.

Reasons to outsource software consulting services

Outsourcing software consulting services has become a common practice for businesses for several reasons. Here we should mention the time and cost-effectiveness, high-quality services, and profound technical experience of the software consulting company you decided to work with.

Highly skilled professionals

By hiring a reliable software development consulting company, you can count on the professional services of developers, business analysts, quality assurance engineers, and UX/UI designers. Based on their experience working with different domains and business types, they will provide you with a unique, unparalleled solution that will satisfy all your demands and comply with your industry standards.

Reduced staffing expenses

Another strong reason to partner with an offshore software consulting company is reduced costs. This way, you will not need to hire technical specialists to consult you on technical matters. Consequently, you will save on salaries, sick leaves, furniture, office space, hardware, and software. All those expenses are already included in the software development consulting services cost.

Focus on the key operational activities

Now that you have an experienced technology partner to deal with your software solutions, you have more time to spend on crucial operating and non-operating activities, such as manufacturing, marketing, looking for investors, or customer management. In other words, you can focus on critical activities affecting your revenue and expenses.
