Internet technology has matured. In most cases, an off the shelf software package will meet most of your needs. In some cases, however, your organization’s needs may be truly unique. The NLC application and integration team can help you:
- Review available off-the-shelf software to identify appropriate solutions
- Integrate these systems using XML-driven techniques.
- Plan, develop and deploy custom solutions at a fixed price and to a fixed timeline.
New technology can be extremely seductive… We have always managed to retain perspective amid an ever-evolving technological landscape: maintaining focus on how technology can be used to deliver true business value. Each team member at NLC shares this ideology. For every engagement that we undertake, they know that the real metrics of success are:
- Did this project make our client money?
- Did this project save our client money?
- Did this project allow our client to extend their business in a new way?
Everything else is details. Important, devilish details. But details none-the-less.
Why do our custom development activities succeed?
The NLC development process consistently delivers applications that meet our clients’ business goals. This track record of success is driven by three factors:
- Our approach
non-linear creations employs an agile development methodology. This iterative approach delivers real business value quickly, and then broadens that value with successive releases. Our clients are deeply involved throughout the project, ensuring we never lose site of the business goals of the project. A service-oriented architecture support underlies the entire process.
- Our commitment to web services standards and architectures
The new web services standards (most apparent in J2EE and .Net incarnations) have the potential to revolutionize how applications work together. Any application we develop has these standards baked into its DNA – from the architecture up we ensure our clients benefit from this new era in development.
- Our library
We have been building applications for almost ten years. As each application is launched, we compartmentalize key elements and enter them in our web services library. When starting a new development project, we look first to this library of field-proven business objects – in many cases, we find that most of the required functions are already available.
