Perficient aligns business with IT. Our software consultants and coaches provide high-impact, lower-cost, and personally focused technical expertise.

We share our expertise in the following areas:

Requirements Management with Use Cases

Perficient’s senior business analysts can quickly capture and manage application requirements using the use case modeling technique. Our senior analysts facilitate requirements-gathering sessions with your business stakeholders or other multi-disciplined teams. Blending techniques such as focus group facilitation, direct interview, primary and secondary research, our experts separate the "must haves" from the wants, and effectively communicate the results to your stakeholders, management, and development teams.

Software Development Process

Most software development processes are meant to be tailored or customized before use on a project. The tailoring adapts the process for application parameters such as complexity, performance, usability, and architecture. Tailoring eliminates costly unneeded activities, adapts roles to your exact needs, and streamlines the project deliverables to save time while still capturing essential information.

Project Management

Effective management may be the most critical skill influencing your project or enterprise success. Perficient program and project managers are seasoned professionals with proven experience and a demonstrated ability to lead modern software development projects. We are available to lead your team, or act as mentors to one or more of your own project managers.

Architecture and UML-based Software Development

Object-oriented modeling has become the de facto approach for modern systems development, but true expertise and experience is hard to find. Perficient Unified Modeling Language (UML) analysts, architects and developers are fully certified professionals in object oriented systems modeling and development, and possess the critical skills needed to move your project into production. Our experts bridge the critical gap between domain modeling, design patterns, and coding idioms.

Assessments and Audits

When the risk and cost of failure are high, projects benefit from impartial, expert opinions delivered at critical project milestones. Perficient assessments and audits provide your team with senior, highly experienced leadership and expertise. Each assessment and review provides a balanced, non-biased opinion based on solid software engineering and project management judgment. Conclusions and recommendations are fully documented, containing specific recommendations and rationale, and are communicated face-to-face with senior management and the project team.
