In-house implementation and use of Up-to-date Software Development tools, the very latest project management techniques and software engineering practices guarantee that Xentient meets and exceeds Customer Defined Benchmarks.
Once the initial sign-off with the client is achieved, our process management cycle takes over. From this point, the responsibility of the project will be taken fully by the assigned project manager. Usually the Project Manager is the same one who was involved in tailoring the Project Proposal, since that makes sure that the Project Manager is in the know about the project right since its inception into Xentient. We embrace change management, and view it as an integral part of the process management cycle with the goal of having each change request handled in a manner so as to not disturb the overall time frames for the entire project.
Selecting a methodology
This involves continuous interaction with the client, since the methodology Xentient employs needs to be approved by the client. This is necessary, since the methodology determines the level of client involvement, during the project lifecycle.
The following describes our SharePoint Expert Practice methodology.
