- drawing up a proposal with due consideration of the project peculiarities and alternative ways of its realization
-
Project realization

- executing the work defined by the project (designing, development, testing, maintenance, consulting, training)
- providing the complete project documentation complying with the client’s requirements and software development industry standards
-
Post-project activities

Project development methodologies
BelHard development methodologies are based on deep expertise in software development, outsourcing, technical consultancy, audit, and IT support.
We apply flexible solutions which allow using the most suitable standards, practices and technologies. Our employees have profound knowledge in modern development methodologies and have practical experience of applying them, namely:
- Rational Unified Process (RUP) (BelHard applies general practices from RUP into its quality management system)
- Microsoft Solution Framework (MSF) (BelHard makes use of various MSF practices with clients who prefer Microsoft .Net technology and already has expertise in MSF)
- Waterfall model (this methodology is suitable for well-defined and structured projects with clear project goals)
- Iterative model (iterative methodologies are used in for developing projects where the clients would like to control the project progress, but do not participate in regular development activities)
- Agile (Scrum, FDD, XP) (Agile methodologies are used when product owners want to participate in daily development activities on regular basis)
