Helmes

Helmes is able to provide both – development using the formal development methodology (with predefined requirements and specifications) or agile development for projects with shorter time-to-market.

We usually suggest agile development (SCRUM, MSF) to:

• enable short time-to-market (agile development saves time on analysis phase and provides tangible results in short time)
• allow introducing new ideas at any point of the development process (the requirements are specified in the course of the project)
• ensure that features providing the highest ROI for the project are completed first (the client is in control of the development process)

However we suggest the formal method (RUP) when:

• the requirements are  entirely specified in the beginning of the project and are not subject to changes during development process
• the fixed budget must be strictly met
