Requirements Gathering
WestLink follows design thinking processes when gathering requirements. This involves value stream mapping to engage with users and stakeholders to identify their needs, ideate solutions, and iteratively refine product requirements and designs, while optimizing processes to deliver maximum value efficiently. Open communication, feedback, and validation are key throughout the process to ensure a successful, user-centric product.
Proposal & Contract
Once the requirements are defined, we’ll prepare a proposal outlining the scope of work, timeline, and cost. If both parties agree on the proposal, a contract is signed to formalize the agreement.
Design
The next step is to create designs for the software, including wireframes, mockups, and user interfaces. The client will review and approve these designs before our team moves on to the development phase.
Development
The development phase involves writing the code for the software. We will typically follow an agile or iterative development methodology, with regular check-ins and demos to keep you informed of progress.
Quality Assurance
Once each software release is developed, it is thoroughly tested to ensure it meets requirements and is defect-free. This may involve manual testing, automated testing, and user acceptance testing.
Deployment
Once the software has been tested and approved, it is deployed to the production environment. We provide support during the deployment phase to ensure the software functions properly.
Maintenance & Support
After deployment, your software may require ongoing maintenance and support to address issues and make updates. WestLink can provide software maintenance and support on a continuous or ad hoc basis.
