Our 6 steps to successful system integration

 1.Requirements gathering

Key to succeeding begins with engaged listening. Shockingly, more than 70 per cent of failed projects miss the mark due to a lack of requirements gathering. The quality of requirements gathering directly correlates with the ability to manage and reduce uncertainties for project success. Tell us about your needs, wants and business goals, and we'll provide the best solution.

2.Business analysis

Business analysis helps banks do business better. The more thorough the business analysis, the more problems the solution solves.  The value of business analysis is in the realisation of benefits, avoidance of cost, identification of new opportunities, and understanding of required capabilities. Our analysts will explore your needs, listen to end-users and study the technology implications for the best result.

3.Architecture design

IT architecture design provides the fundamental structure of a software system and defines what can and cannot be done from an IT standpoint. Maintaining a system that is both well-designed and affordable means striking a balance between innovation, risks and costs. Our experts will work with you to thoroughly plan and document how the different systems should work together most efficiently.

4.Integration design

We make sure your systems can still work independently while connecting perfectly.  We implement the integration unit by unit to make sure the data flows seamlessly, without any duplication.

5.System integration testing (SIT)

SIT testing is performed to verify that each system happily coexists with the others and to test the interface between modules of the application. We repeatedly test the solution throughout the build and then again on completion to ensure it is bug-free, giving you complete confidence that everything is under control.

6.Maintenance

As your business grows and technology advances, even the best software solutions need to keep up with market requirements. We can provide ongoing advice, support and maintenance, ensuring all your systems keep delivering at maximum value.
