PCA Application Prototype DesignWould you give a blank check to a home contractor and say "Build me a House"? Probably not. A more prudent approach: hire an architect to develop blueprints and a miniature physical model -- make changes to the model until you are completely satisfied with the design and the cost -- then begin construction. This "Prototype Process" is exactly how PCA determines software application design and reliable project budgets. Custom application development projects often fail due to unnecessary and avoidable disconnects between the business people who understand their strategic and operational needs, but don't fully understand software capabilities and constraints -- and developers who understand the software, but fail to comprehend the real business needs and priorities.
Have you ever asked a software developer to build you an
application, assumed they understood perfectly what you needed, only to end up
with someting completely different? Custom software projects often fail because
of a disconnect between the business needs and budget, and what the developer
thinks needs to be built. Translating business needs into an information
structure, into a simple User Interface is rife for potential
mis-communication. Requests are often mis-interpreted, and countless (and
needless) valuable time and energy is spent going back and forth, until the
software program actually conforms to the true business intent. PCA frequently develops
Application Prototypes for our Clients, as a simple, visual means to confirm
the application functions, workflow, layout and cosmetics -- before you
commit to a project, and before PCA develops the actual underlying
software code. Our proven Rapid Application Prototype process provides a very
LOW COST, LOW RISK way to see your application before it is built. Prototypes
give all the project stakeholders the opportunity see, comment, and refine the
application features and workflow, before the development effort begins.
