Custom Application Development

When Off-the-Shelf Won’t Cut It

Delivering a solution at the right time is half the equation. The other half is delivering a solution that returns measurable results. At eRichards, we are committed to developing targeted solutions for our customers and sometimes this means developing custom applications.

The eRichards Custom Application Development Solution:

• Create a strategy that meets, or exceeds, your goals
• Design an application that profitably increases revenue and reduces costs
• Manage the software development life cycle to meet strict deadlines
• Deliver an application that allows for long-term growth, scalability and flexibility

What is the eRichards approach?

First, we focus on the most important goal—the success of your business. Second, we take the time to learn your business model, so we fully understand your needs and the challenges of the market place; we refer to this step as the discovery. Every solution must be mapped to a project plan. The project plan has to be fully vetted so that dependencies and other connecting components are integrated into the plan. For instance, we consider whether the client is on board and if they know what is expected of them.

A solid project manager, a flexible project plan and the best communications in place between the client and the consulting firm, like eRichards, allows projects to stay on schedule and within budget. All projects will have changes; however, it is managing those changes that makes the difference in the final outcome.

Finally, eRichards is platform and vendor neutral, so we propose a platform that will match your environment, which allows growth and, most importantly, aligns with your strategic initiatives.

Integration is the most critical task for companies today. ERP, CRM, Data Warehouse, eBusiness, eCommerce, and more all need to communicate with one another. It is this integration that provides critical information to multiple internal and external points, including all devices inside and outside of the firewall.

eRichards systematically goes through our process to evaluate and determine the appropriate solution for each client.
