Consulting
Initially formed as a “projects” firm providing comprehensive technology solutions to businesses using traditional, full life cycle methodologies, MSF&W built a reputation for being able to understand complex business requirements and translate them into efficient and effective software solutions. With over 18 years experience in software development and full life cycle IT projects, we understand what it takes to complete projects. Our expertise is quite extensive. It includes:
Design, Development & Implementation Services
MSF&W specializes in full life cycle system design, development, and implementation. We can assist you with an entire project or with individual components of your project for maximum flexibility. To ensure the success of every custom development project, we use a disciplined project management methodology encompassing:
- Requirements Definition: working with stakeholders, we refine and document functional requirements to fit your business needs.
- Solutions Design: based on requirements, MSF&W produces a detailed Solutions Design Document which is reviewed and approved by project stakeholders.
- Solutions Development: guided by the design document, MSF&W will develop and validate each component of your solution and communicate progress with stakeholders at pre-defined checkpoints.
- Implementation and Hand-off: MSF&W will work with stakeholders to confirm that all systems requirements have been met and that the solution is ready to be put into production. MSF&W will also train lead users prior to the go-live, and will provide production support services once the application is live.
MSF&W consultants will work with you and your team to develop a winning strategy. Our services encompass all areas including, program management, web enabled application design and development, enterprise application integration, data analysis, data migration and conversion, quality assurance and control, strategic analysis and feasibility studies and comprehensive requirements analysis.
