Project management, development planning, coordination between teams and clients, and delivery methodology together make or break large IT projects. Applitech offers four delivery models under a single Total Customer Focus policy: Offshore, Onsite, Offsite, and a Dedicated Development Center.
Offshore model
Applitech delivers full life-cycle projects from its overseas development centers, taking end-to-end responsibility for the work. The company continues to grow the offshore share of delivery, which gives customers access to a large pool of qualified, English-speaking software professionals at a lower cost, with quality lifted by the discipline of serving global clients.
- 01Projects delivered directly from clients or overseas centers
- 02Large pool of qualified professionals with state-of-the-art infrastructure
- 03Standard configuration and project management tools
- 04Transfer of technical and managerial knowledge across projects
- 05Standard SDLC with rigorous reviews aimed at defect prevention
Onsite model
Onsite contracting fills periodic resource demand. Multinational customers often prefer IT firms with global support, and Applitech has used the onsite model to serve foreign customers effectively. Services range from resource provisioning advice to fully customized end-to-end software solutions delivered at the customer site.
- 01On-site execution of the complete SDLC
- 02Early understanding of the customer's working and development environment
- 03Applitech or customer standards as appropriate
- 04Continuous interaction with the customer and end users
- 05Effective change management to keep versions sane
Offsite model
Applitech operates its own development centers in Singapore and the United States to serve customers from a nearby base. The model suits projects with restrictions such as defense or government work, and it leverages Applitech's skills and infrastructure for high customer involvement without burdening the customer's own facilities.
- 01Use of Applitech infrastructure rather than customer resources
- 02Close geographic proximity without consuming customer facilities
- 03Applitech or customer standards as appropriate
- 04Continuous interaction with the customer to capture true needs
Dedicated Development Center (DDC)
Applitech establishes Dedicated Development Centers for clients and alliance partners in their respective niches. A team of professionals and supporting resources is dedicated to the client or partner long term, trained in software development methodology, quality assurance, and product features. The DDC operates as an extension of the customer or partner facility, with the advantage of high-quality service at lower cost.
Why a multi-model approach
No single delivery model fits every program. Applitech sequences offshore, onsite, offsite, and DDC capacity against the customer's risk appetite, regulatory constraints, and program economics, and shifts the mix as the program matures.
