Planning

Planning service
Yes
How the planning service works
Your software development journey begins with Planning, Analysis and Design, where we invest time upfront to gain a deep understanding of your organisation, your requirements and your objectives. At this stage, we are meticulously planning and analysing to define the project scope, gather organisational and user requirements, evaluate feasibility and establish a shared vision. This phase serves as the foundation for your software solution.

Next we distil the insights gathered into a clear roadmap. Crafting a comprehensive software requirement specification (SRS), we outline your software's intricacies and requirements, serving as a blueprint for the development team. At this stage we consider functional and non-functional requirements, system requirements, UX, UI and branding and any limitations or constraints.
