Rapid prototyping

Problem statement

New product idea... new promising technology... lucrative third-party package that we need to integrate with ... There is a whole world of situations when you need a proof-of-concept before your invest into something large, and you need it fast.
 

DataArt's method

Today, with all the modern technology, armies of analysts and consultants, the famous 20-80 principle is as valid as ever. It still takes you 20% of time to get 80% of functionality done and 80% of time to crack the remaining 20. When talking to our clients about our Rapid Prototyping services, we see that many of them don't have the luxury of 20% of time. You have to be able to assess the project value fairly precisely much sooner.

DataArt has the experience, tools and methodology to grab the idea and quickly produce a prototype or a proof-of-concept, and then work together with the client to scope the project out. This capability is a result of specific internal investment and work with clients with no specification resources or changing business goals.

• We use Visual Construction/Programming toolsets extensively to produce presentable, working models;
• Existing DataArt's 'plug-n-play' frameworks for most standard software components (we do not reinvent the wheel), including:
  • User Interface
  • Security and authentication
  • Database record management
  • Workflow
  • Rich content management
  • ... and others.

• Zero-fat process. If you want something fast, you have to be extremely focused and free to experiment. Provided that communications and task management are setup right, maximum freedom helps here a great deal;
• It's exciting to work on such projects! You get so much done in such short period of time (and, frankly, you may not worry about some bugs for now) – that's what everybody loves!
