Software Quality Consulting:

Frequently, Software Quality groups are established with an initial focus on Testing. While this approach has benefits, we have also learned that the sooner a defect is found, the cheaper and easier it is to fix. This fact has resulted in Software Quality groups performing tasks typically associated with Software Verification and Validation (V & V). These tasks track the activities performed by the project team through the SDLC, beginning when the requirements are defined and continuing through design, coding, testing and release.

Our Software Quality Consulting service includes two integrated tracks (Quality Assurance and Quality Control).

Software Testing Consulting:
Testing is not just about reducing risk - it is also about increasing control. By aligning the testing objectives with the business objectives and by increasing the effectiveness of testing both can be delivered.

On many projects, testing will take up a significant portion of the budget. But it will receive less management attention than an activity of this size warrants. At Quality Partners™, we help project and Test managers define what they want to achieve from testing; deliver the testing benefits and maximize the return on the resources used.

Software Quality and Test Outsourcing:
Oftentimes software development houses cannot afford to hire and maintain a full-time development team and an in-house software testing team. For these companies, the decision to outsource software testing is an easy and cost-effective decision.

If you work in software development, you know how tight production schedules are. Anything that saves time helps keep projects on schedule. Software delays are costly so when weighing the costs vs. benefits of outsourcing software quality and testing; determine how project delays affect your bottom line.

Software quality and testing outsourcing can range from bringing in an extra resource to moving responsibility for quality and testing to Quality Partners™.

Software Process Improvement (SPI):
Every organization gets to a point of needing to make major change. Knowing where you stand in terms strengths and shortcomings helps determine the right changes to make, and the right way to make them, to get you to your goals.

Our software development process audits help you evaluate your processes and practices to see what’s working, right along with what’s not. We look at the best practices you are currently using and how they are being used, identify gaps between your current practices and industry best practices, and determine which best practices and practice changes will meet your needs, environment and strategic planning. In the end, you get prioritized recommendations oriented to your specific short-term or long-term goals.

A software development process audit with Quality Partners™ will show you how to Decrease time to market and project costs, Increase productivity and visibility into project progress and Improve product quality and predictability of project outcomes.

CMMI®, MSF®, RUP® and ITIL® Consulting:
A Model based approach helps in addressing an IT organization’s challenge of meeting the demand for high quality and reliable software solutions by leveraging industry proven practices. It provides a step by step approach towards better process maturity with minimum lead-time and cost.

Software and Quality frameworks/models such as CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration), MSF (Microsoft Solutions Framework), RUP (Rational Unified Process) and ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) are used as benchmarks to establish mature processes and help organizations instill a structured approach towards building reliable software systems. They help in driving process improvement initiatives that are aligned with business objectives.

Quality Partners™ has an in-depth understanding of the spirit of these frameworks and helps to map their relevance to the organization process improvement goals and implement these frameworks. Leveraging on their expertise and experience with business domains, our team provides specialized consulting in tailored frameworks for specific business domains and organization size and structure.

Software Changes & Versions Management Consulting:
Without Configuration Management, Software product is merely a child with no rules. It is allowed to run freely at will with no limitations and no sense of security. At Quality Partners™, we understand how important Software Products is to your business. That’s why we want to help you manage your software Changes and Versions and ultimately give your company a stronger back bone.
