Typical Challenges to Custom Built & Customised Software Systems

• Mission critical in that they are often constantly growing and adapting to new needs and may not stop running
• Knowledge retention in the context of documentation, personnel turnover and communication in general
• Maintenance management over extended time and involving multiple parties alongside growing entropy
• Changes to interfaces driven by interconnected systems, devices and technologies
• Version changes of base software packages and software development environments
• Technology initiatives such as service-orientated architecture, modernisations, redeployments and virtualisation
• Business initiatives for example mergers and acquisitions, risk management and strategy development

We have experience on software systems built in multiple development environments ranging from second generation to contemporary technology.
Over the past 15 years we have worked with corporates from many industries, financial services providers, government institutions, consultants and information technology related service providers on systems ranging from micro-computer based departmental systems to enterprise level mainframe systems.
