Team up with Mindworks at any stage of your project, choosing the engagement model that fits best your project scope and business priorities.
Thinking big
After digging deep to understand holistically your challenges and business objectives, we chart your technology path that will keep your business future-proof.
Starting small
At the beginning of the transformation journey, we start with simple use cases that bring you immediate results.
Creating value fast
We then build an MVP, testing the first use cases and collecting feedback. Along the way, we introduce enhancements to align business deliverables and add new use cases.
Innovating at scale
We are expanding the functionality of your system, keeping it flexible on the tech stack, hugely adaptable to humans, and easily scalable to evolve along with your business growth.
Software development methodologies
Having completed hundreds of successful projects, we will help you figure out what approach works best for the development of your software product, and assemble a powerful team to deliver the desired results.
What we think Agile is
The Agile approach centers around a continuously evolving project scope and iterative development where the team delivers a work product — a new feature or meaningful improvement — at the end of every iteration. This approach allows you to start quickly and make decisions in action based on instant feedback.
Agile is your go-to methodology when:
Your end-product vision is likely to evolve in the course of development
It’s difficult to detail all the requirementsat the project onset, for instance, because of its complexity
The success of your product is strongly dependant on user feedback
It’s critical to direct the team’s energy straight off toward development, skipping a lengthy planning stage, to bring your product to market quickly
The Agile Cycle
What we think Waterfall is
In the waterfall model, your entire project, including phases, tasks, and dependencies, is mapped out before development.This means thoroughly planning and documenting all processes, timelines, deliverables, resources, and costs beforehand. At the end of the day, you get less flexibility but a greater level of predictability.
The waterfall methodology is best when:
Your end vision and stakeholders’ needs are well defined and are not going to change
It is possible to fix all the requirements upfront
Your product requires multiple integrations with external systems, including in the process of development
You need to comply with more extensive project tracking or documentation requirements
The Waterfall Model
Our engagement models
When selecting an optimum engagement model for our clients, we discuss a lot of details, from their primary business objective and project scope to the level of flexibility and control they require. Our aim is to come up with a solution that balances cost efficiency, performance, and flexibility best.
Time & Materials
Under the Time & Materials model, we can build your software product either in a linear sequence of stages or in increments through constant communication with you. You pay only for actual work done on daily or hourly rates per specialist.
Fixed Price
With this model, we build your software product for a price fixed upfront for the entire project. This often involves planning and estimating the entire project scope before development starts.
Dedicated Team
Alternatively, you can simply hire our highly skilled engineers to fill in specific in-house skill gaps, or go for a full-fledged dedicated and self-managed team. You get professionals that integrate seamlessly into your environment, bring in a fresh angle and ideas, and deliver top results with in-house-like dedication.
