The development process that we follow is in the line of the Waterfall approach. The
development process follows six distinct steps. The process of design and solutions
development works in tandem with a distinct process of communication with our
clients. This helps us to create the best possible solutions in the shortest possible time
for our clients.
- System Analysis & Evaluation: This stage essentially deals with
understanding the scope of the project to the fullest. There is a detailed
interaction with the client at this stage. We prefer that this be through chat -
instant messenger - aol/icq/msn/yahoo etc. This usually answers most primary
details, required to begin the project.
o Resource requirements
o Review business requirements
o Assign resources, determine availability & start date, duration, and
major work components
o Develop schedule
- Design: Designing the architecture based on the requirements backed by
concept inputs. The actual user-interface is developed at this stage. Parallelly
the development team prepares the database structure for the project, the
solution architecture, object oriented design, modules and interfaces.
o Develop data architecture (logical and physical data model)
o Develop application architecture (objects/ modules groupings, internal &
external interfaces, user views (screens))
o Develop technology architecture
o Define implementation strategy (impacts, risks, hardware/software,
acquisition)
o Define conversion requirements
o User interface design
o Database design
o Base classes definition
- Construct & Implementation: At the implementation stage, we define the
organization of the application and how it is to be developed. Subsystems are
delineated and organized. Each developed component can then be tested and
the results obtained from our different technical teams are then integrated into
a final system. Throughout the implementation stage the application will be
hosted on our staging servers.
o Code programs/objects
o Conduct unit tests
o Match with specification
o Integration of various modules and units
- Beta testing: Specially designed quality checks on individual components of
the system, as well as on the integrated system ensure a high performance of

the product. On-line beta testing completes this process. Test each software
unit and database ensuring that it satisfies requirements
- Rectification: This stage involves minor changes and errors arrived at beta
testing.
Delivery: Delivery of the application after receiving client’s approval. The
application will be installed on the client server after project completion.

Calculating compensation: If a bartender applies for an event that is less than
the bartender's profile compensation choices the bartender is agreeing to the
offered amount by the event host and compensation for escrowing of funds
should be calculated as such.
Calculating compensation: If an event host sends an event request to a
bartender and the bartenders accepts the request, the event host is agreeing
to pay the bartender's compensation amount and compensation for escrowing
of funds should be calculated as such.
Calculating compensation: This is not an issue because compensation for
employment will be negotiated at the Interview.
Calculation of time shifts vs. set time of events: Bartenders will enter their
availability in a shift format. Event host will enter the start and end time of
their events. The system will need to analyze the two time structures and
match them for availability.
The website would charge a certain percent of the payment transaction as a
website service fees. The percentage can be managed by the admin.
The monthly fee charged to bartenders and employers will not be
charged when the site launches. Admin would be able to control over
the implementation of the reoccurring fee and amount of the monthly
fee charge to bartenders and employer.

hours to cancel any payments that would have gone to the bartender. The
