Your
Center for rapid Prototypedevelopment
The
research scientist is often faced with the requirement for specific,
custom-designed applications or interfacing modules, in order to meet
the needs of his/her data acquisition, analysis or instrument control.
Many small companies lack the in-house facilities for the development
of such one-off programs, and the support of such software can be a
major drain on limited in-house IT resources. The only alternative is
often to turn to a specialised software house, but despite the high
hourly rates charged for such custom development, the developers of the
application often fail to fully understand the precise requirements of
the research scientist, and the results can often be an expensive
disappointment.
In
addition, the requirements of the application may change during the
course of a research project - by its very nature, it is often
difficult to predict the direction in which research may eventually
lead, and any software which is used in the research process needs to
be flexible and capable of modification, extension and further
customisation with a minimum of delay and expense. We deliver software
with a robust internal architecture, which enables us to extend and
modify your applications as your requirements change and grow, at
minimum expense.
Quite
simply, we endeavour to deliver bespoke software solutions at a price
that compares favourably with shrinkwrapped standard solutions. We
offer:
- A
free, no-obligation initial consultation,
- An
obligation-free, fixed-fee quotation,
- An
iterative design process which gives the customer the opportunity for
direct input into the development of the product,
-
Direct contact with a programming team who understand the requirements
of a research scientist,
- Free
e-mail support for an initial period after final acceptance of the
product (extended support is available at reasonable rates),
-
Benefits for budget planning, due to fixed-price quotes once the
outline specification has been agreed.
We will
always offer our customers the simplest solution which meets their
current and projected requirements; no unneccessary bells and whistles.
about
us
Together,
we have more than 40 years combined experience of software development
for the scientific community. Thanks to this experience and our
technical backgrounds, we can provide valuable insights into the
generic problem domains which are encountered in many different areas
of scientific research and development, which enables us to develop
complete solutions within a timescale which less experienced developers
would often allocate for analysis alone.
In the
course of our projects, we have developed a number of unique
programming techniques, re-usable modules and components, which have
general application to various areas of research and instrumentation.
By combining
our experience, our in-depth knowledge of many different kinds of
instrumentation, our generic understanding of various scientific
problem domains and our own source-code libraries, we are able to offer
a software development service to the scientific community which we
believe is unbeatable in terms of its price/performance ratio.
