Practices
Our best practices methodology are procedures that are tested
and recommended for the implementation of Custom Applications
in several industries. We have defined procedures for managing
risk, project scope, project deliverables and project implementation
personnel.
The critical success factors of a Custom Application implementation
project have to be identified and managed efficiently to
ensure the overall success of the application. These objectives
are geared towards solving a business problem or automating
a business process. In order for a project to be successful,
these measurable objectives must be identified and documented.
Continual risk assessment is essential
to identify those risks that present the potential to cause
a project to run over budget, increase development time
or threaten a successful implementation within the users
community. If risks are identified in a timely manner, they
can be planned for, managed and often eliminated. By creating
contingency plans, we are able to present options to our
clients on a course of action to achieve satisfactory results.
Many seemingly successful projects
fall short of fully transferring and mentoring client personnel
on all of the functionality of the new application. CONET
has experienced continual success with our projects and
our clients, because of our dedication to training our clients.
This is crucial for the future success of the application
and provides the client with the knowledge to further enhance
the application.
Our implementation methodology includes
stringent procedures for documentation of all design and
development components of the application, including the
system architecture, hardware and all logic used in the
development of the application. This documentation provides
the knowledge and guideline for enhancing the functionality
of the application in the future.
At CONET, we leverage our expertise
in the delivery of software training as we provide education
to our clients onsite or at our own training facilities.
Our implementation teams also perform one-on-one mentoring
sessions with key client personnel through the duration
of the project.
