Traditional Methodologies Are Unreliable

Traditional methodologies demonstrate weaknesses that add unnecessary risks to software development projects and lead to high failure rates. Specifically, end users are requested to "approve" a system design document at the start of a project. The document serves as a guiding document for development and scope control, which is an unreasonable demand on end-users who are asked to conceptualize complex system interactions by reading a detail-laden document.

Adaptive Approach Reduces Costs and Risks

The Adaptive Approach is different. It cuts up-front time and cost by reducing the initial paperwork and replacing it with working system components that clients can evaluate early and often. These frequent looks at real software allow both the client and development team to make functionality and usability corrections early. These in-time corrections translate to Avenity’s ability to deliver software that is on time, under budget and very closely fits our client's business needs.

Cost Effective with Built-in Scope Control

The Adaptive Approach is an agile methodology that uses development iterations to ensure projects stay on track, adapt quickly to changing needs, meet budget constraints and are delivered on time. It is a lean way to get results with built-in mechanisms for scope control.

Benefits Of Our Adaptive Approach Methodology Include:

  • Collaborative: Project execution using an integrated team of client and Avenity staff to create trust and true partnership
  • First Look: Delivery of a working system of code in the shortest possible time
  • Interactive (See-As-You-Go): Client exposure and involvement in the full lifecycle to ensure that we are proceeding in the right direction
  • Iterative: Phased design and development cycles provide flexibility and rapid response to changes and also provide a mechanism for controlling project scope and budget
  • Delivery: Checkpoints guarantee that Avenity’s progress is on time, on track, and to client budget
