We make a strong distinction between the principles of how we deal with technology and the tools and languages that we use or have used in our projects. Find out more about our principles in the following text or click here to jump directly to our tools and languages.
Our Best-of-Breed approach focuses on employing only the top-tier and industry-leading technologies. This strategic selection ensures robust and reliable e-commerce solutions, tailored to enhance your digital commerce strategy with unparalleled efficiency and performance.
It’s crucial to align the Best-of-Breed approach with the company’s context and goals! Factors like existing or planned workforce, revenue targets, and willingness to invest influence the choice of technology. Technology must not be an end in itself.
We guide our clients in selecting the appropriate Best-of-Breed tools and provide support in their implementation and maintenance.
Our agile mindset extends beyond Scrum or Kanban; it’s about adaptive planning and flexible response. We emphasize rapid delivery, continuous improvement, and cultivate a dynamic work environment that thrives on change, enabling swift and efficient project completion.
In this context, we derive direction based on the project's and company's unique circumstances. Requirements in a highly agile environment differ from those in a project focused on tool integration.
What methodologies have we used in our projects? Classic Scrum, Kanban, ScrumBut, SAFe, LeSS, adapted Spotify Model, OKR, as well as our own development processes.
Upholding high standards in code quality is paramount for us. Our development practices emphasize creating clean, maintainable, and efficient code, ensuring scalability and minimizing technical debt. This commitment to quality leads to reliable and high-performing digital platforms.
We achieve this through comprehensive training for our team and by fostering collaborative teamwork. We set high expectations for ourselves and our colleagues. Key to this is the extensive automation of quality checks, testing, and standardization. This approach enables us to maintain consistent, high-quality across projects and efficiently integrate new team members into our workflow.
We embrace the principle of 'Economies of Speed' to facilitate rapid market entry and swift iteration. Accelerated development and deployment provide a competitive edge, enabling our clients to respond swiftly to market shifts and user requirements.
This is reflected in 'build vs buy' decisions and in considering the Total Cost of Ownership (ToC) for clients. Today, there's often no need to reinvent the wheel; significant portions of a platform can be acquired through purchases or sourced from open-source solutions.
For us, technology is not an end in itself. It's a means to serve our clients' business objectives, ensuring that every technological decision aligns with their commercial goals.
As pioneers in digital transformation, we continuously integrate the latest technology trends, ensuring our clients lead with avant-garde solutions. We embody the spirit of technological evolution, keeping you at the forefront of the dynamic digital landscape.
We achieve this by bringing our proven toolkit of skills and applying our principles to new technologies. Through recurrent practice in rapidly adapting to new technologies, it has become a staple of our everyday routine.
Moreover, embracing this mindset is crucial to do what's right for our clients. It's not just about keeping up; it's about leading the way in innovation and digital excellence
