Custom Software Development – Let’s Get to the Basics Once More!
Custom Software Development, or as its also known as custom software engineering, incorporates development of solutions as per the specific needs of a client. In short, it is a process that includes some custom approaches towards solving client’s problems.
The first step in the process of includes clear understanding of the necessities, as well as of the system, the software is to run for. Once the needs and system are understood, creative decisions are taken in order to meet the specific requirements and preferences of the customer as quickly as possible. The goal of custom software development is to build a solution not for the mass users, but as a unique option to be used by a single customer/user or a group.

Six Sigma and Agile Software Development
The term Iterative and Incremental Development (IID) describes a class of methodologies for software development where the system grows incrementally through a series of complete development cycles. Agile software development methods are a group of specific iterative methodologies that combine relatively short iterations with evolutionary refinement of the requirements, plans and targets across each subsequent iteration.
In our experience, agile and iterative methodologies are more reliable and lower risk than using more traditional ‘waterfall’ style methods for software development. We have also found that various Agile software methods such as eXtreme Programming (XP), Scrum, Unified Process (UP) and Evo supply important and useful paradigms for reliable delivery of software development projects.

Small Business Opportunities in Offshore Software Development
The market for all those one time high paying computer programming jobs are starting to be filled be less expensive offshore software developers. Welcome to the world of global competition in offshore software development. Depending on your context, offshore software development can be viewed as a new competition threat or opportunity in new resources. Or, it can be viewed as a combination of both.
As an American, I believe there is mostly a negative conatation towards the trend of large American companies offshoring jobs. You know, the underlying tone is somthing similar to “big companies only care about profits, not people”. Honestly, when the topic is big business, I can agree with points on both sides of the discussions. But, what is often lost in these discussions of offshoring software development jobs are the opportunities it creates for small business.
