SYSTEM AND APPLICATIONS DEVELOPMENT

Development


Information Technology is in constant mutation: new tech-nologies are developed and arrive on the market place ev-eryday. Should you be the first or the last to deploy them, you have to be prepared. But to what? Prepared to this new technology which will be obsolete in 6 months or prepare its adaptation to future changes. Open Source technologies are technologies where training is incremental: You still use what you have learnt and your expertise keeps increasing with your experience.

You have projects and you want them to succeed. Does your team lack some skills to realize them? Will you be able to operate once the project has been realized? For a develop-ment, migration or implementation project, the expertise level of your team is the key. Would it be profitable if you could benefit from the feedbacks of similar projects? It would be like if you have already done the project before.

Your system suffers from the new technologies coming out on the market and it is not ready to integrate them. Worse, its components become ob-soletes and its lifecycle end is approaching.
