Waterfall Software Development

We use waterfall software development to effectively identify and manage each stage of the project.

Waterfall Distinctives

The software development team is directly accessible to the client throughout the project development. Project management software can be used to track the progress of the application’s development.

All your Software Development needs in one place.

Planning

We schedule our projects from beginning to end by using the planning stage to identify business needs and carefully plan and document the purpose of our software. During the planning stage, all project information and requirements are gathered and documented ready for the following stages to be implemented effectively. 

Our planning is important as it sets the tone for the success of the entire project management process, therefore our teams work endlessly to piece together all important information that will contribute to a successful project.

Design

With the information gathered at our planning stage, we begin to plan the implementation of our technical solutions. Our design process involves creating detailed visual representations of our software architecture.  We put together all of the necessary information regarding programming language and hardware.

At this stage, our team prepares for the development of the solutions, ensuring all of our technical requirements are met, and to ensure that the overall product will be designed to an optimal standard.

Development

Once our team is happy with the overall design, they will begin work on the development and implementation of the solutions decided on at the design phase.  At this stage our coding experts work to develop and integrate the best quality software, following all instructions provided at the previous stages.

This is where our team will ensure that the final product is in line with the requirements set out at the planning stage,  and make any necessary adjustments before delivery.

Deployment

Towards the end of the process, once the team is satisfied with all specifications being met at the development stage, and when the development of the software is complete and we are happy with the overall result, we deliver the final solution to our clients.

Once it is deployed into the customer environment, we prepare for the next stage where we observe performance and anticipate any feedback, and record the success of the software.

Management

We encourage feedback from businesses that we work with, and always show enthusiasm when getting to know what businesses feel about our solutions when they are in use.

Our team monitors the use of the software, by always being available for clients to contact us regarding any potential issues that may have arisen since deployment, to gather information regarding room for improvement or to simply check that we have created a successful solution for our clients.

Waterfall Stages

At SofHub, each waterfall project follows four stages: Elaboration, Implementation, Stabilization, and Transition.

Elaboration stage

Our software designers will decide on the project scope, and then prepare the detailed specification.

Stabilization stage

Our software development team will begin work as soon as the full agreement is signed and the initial payment is received.

Implementation stage

We will estimate the logistics regarding cost and personnel. We will prepare a contract for signature once these key terms have been approved by you. Every aspect of our business relationship is covered by the full agreement. This includes licensing and intellectual property issues, commercial confidentiality, the extent of our warranty, the agreed period of maintenance and support, etc.

Transition stage

Based on daily reports, time sheets and pre-negotiated rates, the work is billed at the end of every month.

Why Waterfall

  • The waterfall model is ideal where a complete specification (or a solution to a business problem) still needs to be developed. This usually occurs in long-term projects where periodic adjustments to business software are required.
  • The waterfall model encourages clear and open communication between parties. Detailed information sharing is crucial to narrowing down the project scope. Timely feedback is also required so that our work continues to meet your business’ expectations.
