When approaching IT project development, many IT consulting firms continue to utilize a waterfall process. This
process requires that the project team follow a narrowly defined order for project completion.
The waterfall process necessitates that all functional, non-functional, security, and system requirements are
defined up-front. Then, the entire system is designed, built, integrated, and finally tested.
The largest drawback of this process is that testing is performed at the end of the development process, when
revisions and modifications to the system are most expensive. Additionally, the testing phase is almost always
the “catch-up” phase of the project, where prior schedule lapses can be made up.
Unlike other firms, the technologists at Triton-Tek utilize an iterative development methodology, which provides a
flexible framework for application development. This methodology emphasizes design, integration, communication and
testing.
This iterative methodology breaks down the project into steps, or iterations. Each iteration produces a working
segment of the overall system. Ensuing iterations build upon previously created segments, allowing our technologists
to improve and refine the system throughout the development process.
The focus on continuous integration and testing allow our technologists to learn from the development of the system
and expose flaws early on in the process. Tactical changes can be made and the development process can be refined as
each iteration is integrated.
Our methodology ensures the systems we develop fulfill client objectives, provide higher quality, and adhere to budgets.
As a result, we have compiled an impressive track record of completing projects on budget and on time.
