CASE STUDY
Agile engineered for value
Developing incrementally helps mitigate risk in software development. Decomposing batches of features into smaller, discrete units allows our team to deliver and test high-value features and reduce the surface area of each update, increasing the security and stability of the system. Through additional agile methods like test-driven development and continuous integration, we add automated guardrails and verifications that enable us to make changes with confidence and speed.
Excellent code built to last
The most time-consuming and expensive aspects of software engineering are writing and maintaining code. A common, costly mistake in software development is throwing out working systems and starting from scratch but rushing to rebuild tends to repeat errors. We don’t assume that the solution is to start over, we strive to fully understand the existing software in order to understand what is not working and how the system should evolve.
Developing impactful software and teams
Def Method builds in partnership. We provide embedded teams, working directly together with our clients. We practice collaborative software engineering, including pair programming, to optimize our shared strengths and unique perspectives. Through the development lifecycle, we will help to equip your in-house team so the system is fully supported when our collaboration concludes. Our goal is to build valuable software that provides a foundation for growth, owned by a team that is equipped to perform.
