Mathcom Software

I know that our users kept changing their requirements of SunPASS almost all along the project. You were able to accommodate all that nicely into the product you delivered to them. You did not compromise quality in trying to be flexible. In fact, since the product went live in August, there has been no major application issues. Really outstanding !

Mathcom provides software development for the entire software life cycle. We favor an evolutionary or iterative approach that involves working closely with your end clients to define problems, requirements, and possible solution paths.

We define an flexible overall software architecture with latitude for future change. Then we begin a series of rapid development iterations:

Develop a working test system.
Allow end clients to test it and discuss it's features.
Incorporate their comments in the next release.

Each iteration results in a working system for a subset of the requirements. As the iterations progress, the test system encompasses a larger and larger proportion of the requirements until the entire project is accomplished.

The advantages of this approach are ...

Clients are aware of the direction from the start.
Client changes in direction can be accommodated easily from the start.
There is a working system at each stage, so the project doesn't get lost in bureaucracy.
