What We Do to Guarantee Project Success
At ScienceSoft, we see our mission in driving project success no matter what. These are not just ambitious words — we use a set of practices and techniques to keep projects on track and deliver on our commitments despite any possible obstacles.
Engaged requirements engineering
We don’t expect all our clients to come with a detailed project specification. If they have high-level requirements only, we dive into the situation, ask the right questions, and elicit non-obvious needs and goals.
Accurate and realistic cost estimation
Thanks to our thorough work at the discovery stage, we see a complete project scope and can estimate the project cost accurately. We factor in possible risks and do our best to find cost optimization opportunities when possible.
Dynamic, yet controllable, project scoping
We work out granular project requirements at the start and stay responsive to stakeholders’ feedback throughout the work. The result is the software that meets a client’s current goals, even if they changed over time.
Competence-based selection of a project team
We assess the level of expertise needed for the project and select team members with the required skill set. Thus, our clients get optimal resources cost and guaranteed high team performance.
Comprehensive risk management
We consider operational, business, technology, and external risk factors and plan mitigation strategies to react quickly and confidently to possible disruptions.
Agile delivery
We effectively manage changing requirements by splitting a software development process into sprints. For each sprint, we prioritize features from the backlog and undergo a full cycle of feature ideation, development, testing, and deployment.
Prevention of scope creep
We are flexible to change any functional and non-functional requirements in the course of the project. To keep the process under control, we assess the feasibility and desirability of each change request.
Budget control
We provide realistic cost estimation backed up by the risk mitigation plan, manage change requests thoroughly, and monitor the budget spending throughout the project.
Responsible approach to deadlines
We rely on work decomposition, clear project documentation, and regular retrospectives to manage the project time effectively.
Coordinated teamwork
We choose convenient communication forms and frequency and build tailored communication flows to ensure seamless cooperation of all project stakeholders on our and client’s side.
Routine reporting
We regularly report on agreed KPIs and provide forecasts for the project progress to keep clients in the loop.
Centralized knowledge management
We document all important decisions and processes to avoid project data silos and knowledge loss. You can check samples of project documentation we commonly create.
Building Trust with Transparency
Outsourcing to another company, however reputable it is, always comes with a risk. The best we can do as a vendor to lower that risk is to be completely transparent about who we are, what we do, and where we have succeeded. At ScienceSoft, we bet on facts rather than promises — that’s our first step to building trust.
Solutions We Cover
With over 35 years in Information Technology, we have built up expertise in dozens of domains, including:
Our Capabilities and Technological Expertise
We continue to grow - ScienceSoft is a 3-Year Champion in The Americas’ Fastest-Growing Companies Rating by the Financial Times. Additionally, we have a partner network of five companies with a total of 750+ employees, which, combined with our strong technological expertise, enables us to cover all software engineering and infrastructure management needs of midsized and large organizations.
Our technology partnerships
Throughout our history, we have developed a number of partnerships with technology leaders, who highly attested our technical competencies and the ability to understand our clients’ needs and translate them into quality services:
We eagerly put in use IT innovations
Our Pricing Policy
Depending on a project and the nature of the delivered service, we resort to one of the following pricing models:
|
Fixed price Recommended for middle-size projects, where the scope of the project is clearly defined |
Time and Material Recommended for middle-size and large projects, and for consulting, which are dynamic and need fluidity |
Consumption-based pricing Used for managed services and help desk (e.g. # of tickets solved, cloud resources consumed) |
Monthly subscription fee Used for support services |
“It's hardly possible to reduce costs by means of low rates in modern, dynamic IT. Low rates tend to result in excessive hours spent. We, at ScienceSoft, don't practice reducing IT service costs by hiring low-paid employees. Instead, we raise productivity, i.e., deliver more in less time. It results in a lower cost of output (new application functionality, stable infrastructure, user issues resolved).”
To increase productivity and provide for the project cost reduction for our clients, we invest a part of our revenue in:
- Quality management and process optimization.
- Adoption of new technologies.
- Employee training and further education.
In addition, to implement software solutions faster and optimize the solutions’ Total Cost of Ownership, we resort to using the following technologies and methodologies:
- Cloud-native architecture.
- DevOps and the implementation of CI/CD pipelines.
- Test automation.
- Application Performance Management.
