We believe that, when it comes to software development, quality is determined by process. Naturally, our development process is in line with best practice. Based on the Microsoft Solutions Framework, our approach incorporates well-defined phases and an overlay of flexibility through iterative development.

Abraham Lincoln once said, “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” We agree with him, and tend to focus specifically on the critical envisioning and planning phases. Project timing is determined during these phases using proven estimation techniques at key points.

In order to help manage technical risk, Saratoga’s core architecture and associated component set provides a solution for many problems that are common to development projects. This architecture includes data access components, abstracted interfaces to 3rd party systems, dynamic form rendering, workflow and other key components. It also means that a significant portion of your custom solution has already been proven through use in real, live environments.

The availability of our architecture means: A software development approach that delivers systems faster with more reliability.
