Our experience in the products development is extensive. Our processes for product development are methodical and enable us to get deep insight into the product objectives and the problems addressed. Our business analysts do the SWOT analysis, screen the idea, test the underlying concept, identify and define the metrics for monitoring progress, conduct beta tests of marketability, choose and design the technical framework to build the product, and strategize for commercial launch of the product.
Product Definition
In this phase we define the process of actually designing and developing the product. We explore ideas and refine them in terms of defining the product specifications, hardware and software platforms to be used, project plan, cost, time frame, quality, usability, test procedures & plans (test cases, test scripts & matrixes, test schedules, test conditions, test status reports etc.) Product release deadline, maintenance & support, and finally future version plans.
Architecture
The product architecture functions as the building blocks of any product. In this phase we carefully develop the architecture of the product after evaluating all the relevant hardware and software platforms, maintenance and support requirements, porting requirements across various platforms, future enhancement and version controls.
Development:
Our product development team, as a whole, takes responsibilities for the strategic direction of the product agenda and road map, as well as developing the product as per the specifications.
Delivery and Testing
Before we deliver the final end product, we work rigorously with the original specifications to ensure that the product is built as planned before it enters the testing phase. We develop the following test plans and procedures at the project definition phase.
- Evaluation and selection of third party automated test suites. If required development of testing tools
- Development of test harness
- Execution of manual and automated test plans
- Test Automation using tools like Load runner, Win runner etc..
- Test Results
Our testing plans also includes testing of the areas such as functional, Unit, Integration, Regression, Compatibility, Installation, Security, Performance, User Acceptance and End to End transactions.
Product Maintenance
Product maintenance is very important for keeping the product competitive in the market. Completion of the development of a product begins the process of its maintenance. The most significant need for Product maintenance is to upgrade it to the next version, with necessary modifications based upon the feedback from the users.
The maintenance activities are primarily categorized into:
- Corrective maintenance: Corrective maintenance is reactive in nature. The product is subjected to modifications to rectify the defects, discovered on use of the product.
- Adaptation maintenance: Adaptation maintenance is modulator in nature. The product is modified to keep it in tune with the changed business-environment and also make it adaptable to the prospective changes in its usage.
- Preventive maintenance: Preventive maintenance is to detect and correct the dormant faults in the product.
- Maintenance for Perfection: Maintenance for perfection is to enhance the performance of the product.
- The product maintenance needs arise to correct the flaws in design or improve the design for better performance. Digital Hie follows a defined process model for product maintenance.
The Digital Hie model defines the procedures for problem identification and verification, for requests seeking modifications, for modification implementation which includes analysis and development, for review and approvals for modifications, for migration of the changed product and also for product retirement plan to deploy the latest version of the product.Our competence for product maintenance is next to none in wide spectrum of the technologies including the legacy systems.
