The top practices in the industry, applied by the Top Talent.
Everything we do at BairesDev is characterized by a Design Thinking mindset. We ensure that every employee, no matter their specialty or department, follows these principles and applies them to their daily work. Our software engineers are the Top 1% in the market. A team of such developers working with this method is our guarantee of excellence.
We follow the five steps of the Stanford Design School: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test.
We rapidly prioritize tasks, divide responsibilities efficiently, and time box every element. We revise and correct our course continuously through sprints and iterations. Providing our talented engineers with organized and efficient leaders is one of the keys to our success.
During complex projects, teams working with this methodology hold daily Scrum meetings, keeping track of pending and finished tasks with the top available project management tools and software.
During these brief and efficient meetings, we focus on the 3 essential questions of Scrum:
In short sprints, our teams are able to continuously re-prioritize tasks and reduce the product backlog with consistent efficiency.
We guarantee early and continuous delivery of flawless software by generating the right environment, keeping our engineers motivated and focused, and trusting their judgment and expertise to do the job.
Agile is our standard practice for service-oriented projects and code and design deliverables. Our teams implement this methodology when the client’s involvement is crucial for development, or when the product’s features and functions are not established, with opportunities for improvement and adaptability. Through small incremental changes, we test and advance swiftly towards the end product while remaining flexible to potential circumstances and modifications to the initial plan.
The backbone of our standard of excellence is made up of DevOps principles. We trust our talented developers, we embrace the innovation they bring, and we encourage transparency and build cross-functional teams that never lose sight of the KPIs or the passion for achieving them.
For big-scale projects in which both software development and operations teams are present, we use DevOps practices to allow for smoother collaboration and reduced risk down the way. For this, we focus on:
We work with a Lean approach when there’s a need to focus on value and getting things done fast. Our Lean-oriented teams work simply and efficiently and are experts at avoiding resource waste.
By working closely with our clients, determining essential features and understanding the core functions of the product, we are able to deliver complex projects on tight schedules, keeping the code base simple and response times to a minimum.
Our Lean teams stick to the 7 principles of Lean methodology:
We don’t micromanage our talented teams or demand impossible things from them. We trust their expertise, and they respond by working with motivation on a healthy environment.
Our teams resort to Rapid Application Development when the software in development relies heavily on user feedback and discoveries made during testing to shape its design and functions.
RAD allows us to respond with extreme flexibility in these situations and develop our design as we gather more knowledge about the product’s needs and requirements.
Advantages of using RAD on specific projects:
Using working code to illustrate examples allows you to visualize concepts much more rapidly.
By integrating components early, errors or complications can be identified and resolved quickly.
Obtaining relevant user feedback is essential to evaluate the current state of the software and make necessary changes immediately.
Our co-located extended teams are ideal candidates for the Extreme Programming method due to the dynamically changing situations they face. Pair programming, weekly and quarterly cycles and incremental design are some of the principles our experienced engineers practice.
This method allows for cross-functional teams to perform exceptionally on specific projects involving high-risk challenges such as the application of newly advanced technologies. When working with Extreme Programming, we follow 12 of its most common practices:
When working with Extreme Programming, we follow 12 of its most common practices:
Our Prototype methodology allows us to give our clients an accurate feeling of the software they are trying to design in order to better understand the system and identify missing functionalities.
We prioritize user involvement and feedback to create products with great interaction, excellent interface and frictionless user experience. Our clients can see every step of the development to have a vision of what the end-product will look like. We rely on the Prototype model for intensive, end-user interaction products. Online systems and web interfaces are ideal candidates for this, as well as projects when there’s a need for minimal training/knowledge for the final user.
We define the requirements of the system in detail with interviews and thorough functionality questions and expectations.
A preliminary design is made, with no coding or programming involved. In this stage we define the feel of the product with the client.
Once the design concept is approved, we move on to building the first prototype with basic functionality and only the core features.
The prototype is tested by different users to evaluate and identify strengths and weaknesses. These range from basic functionality requirements to aesthetics. Comments, suggestions and every input is taken into account and compiled.
Using all the information gathered from the user evaluation, a more advanced version of the prototype is made and presented again to the user. This phase is where most of the time and resources are invested as many iterations are often necessary to achieve the ideal end product.
Once the final prototype is approved, it goes through a series of quality controls and strict evaluations before it evolves into a completely functional final product.
Our expert Dedicated Teams can start delivering technology solutions and value immediately. On top of that, we only hire the Top 1% of Tech Talent.
