Although we typically work with clients at their site in the initial problem definition
phase and the implementation phase, the majority of the development is performed
at our world-class development center in Bangalore, the silicon valley of India.
As a result, we can solve complex software problems at costs that are 60% to 70%
of what is typically charged. In addition, SuriSoft Solutions are delivered on a
time.
SuriSoft provides services on either (1) a fixed-fee basis with payment milestones
plus charges for change orders or (2) at a fixed hourly rate which depends on the
experience of the developers assigned to a project. Expenses for travel are billed
to our clients and depend on the nature, size, and other aspects of the project
being addressed.
Methodology
SuriSoft utilizes a flexible development methodology that is customized based on
project size. For our largest projects, the following phases are typical.
Discovery - SuriSoft works closely with clients
to understand their immediate and long-term goals, the competitive landscape of
the target market, and existing operational and technical environments. Acting as
partners, business objectives are agreed upon and then a strategic plan of action
is created. The strategic plan establishes the project scope, a budget, a detailed
work plan, and progress assessment guidelines.
Architecture - What tools provide the best solution?
Who will use it and how? What features should be provided? How will it operate?
What will it look like? Once the strategic plan is in place, these are the types
of questions that must be answered as the functional, technical, and creative requirements
are developed for the project. These requirements will be carefully documented and
refined.
Design - After the architectural phase is completed,
any remaining ambiguous areas of the system are prototyped and final project design
decisions made.
Implementation - SuriSoft can now proceed to build
the final software product. This phase is divided into milestones representing the
completion of functional modules that will be delivered to clients for evaluation,
comments, and possible change orders.
Testing - Testing is performed at our development
center at every milestone. We subject the product to extensive functionality, stress,
and load testing to help insure a high quality and reliable final version.
Deployment - When the final version is delivered,
SuriSoft will also provide complete documentation if desired.
Enhancement - For an agreed upon period after
launch, SuriSoft will monitor and analyze how the product performs against the success
criteria defined in the discovery phase. Also, during this period, the development
team will be available to quickly address any development issues that might arise
unexpectedly. Finally, clients can elect to have one or more members from their
product development team join their organization as permanent employees for ongoing
enhancement and support of your product.
Application Development
SuriSoft's focus is to provide world class business Solutions using state-of-the-art

Application Re-Engineering
SuriSoft offers complete life cycle support from reengineering planning through

These services address:
- Database Migration
- Architecture Change

Many organizations now have a large installed base of legacy applications that evolved
over a number of years, crossing diverse platforms, and represent huge investments.

cost of systems ownership. SuriSoft addresses this problem by enabling clients to
migrate existing applications to use current technologies and performance while
retaining the knowledge represented by those legacy applications.
