How we do it. Our people just love what they do. We just make sure that they have the tools, the space and the support to solve the challenges. It sounds very simple but we like to keep it that simple.
People Over the last 6 years, we have stabilized a core team of 45 developers with very high experience in Open Source.  We have enrolled another 76 employees more during the last 3 years mentored by our core team. We are planning a 250 employees company for 2009.    All our people hold at least a 4 year Engineering degree in Technology and many of them are professional certified by leading technology organizations.
Technology During the last 6 years we have built software stacks with different Open source projects. These different technologies can work together seamlessly and very few requirements fall out of those stacks.    We particularly excel in Compiere, OpenCms, Liferay, Alfresco , Pentaho, J2EE, AJAX, Flex and other Web 2.0 components.    Sometimes, our clients prefer proprietary software on a Microsoft platform. Thanks to that we now hold a strong experience in migrating legacy code to DotNet and projects based on Documentum.
Process After learning and practicing methodologies and standards like ISO:9002, CMMI, ITIL, ISO 27000, BS 7799 , DSDM, Scrum, Agile, UML Tenth Planet have evolved a perfect IT Services Solution Model called Ten10.      Ten10 process, our proprietary service framework, breaks clients requirements into multiple Service Requests which are the minimal units of a project. Projects of any size and complexity can be handled successfully.
Pricing All projects are different. Identifying the right pricing start model is key for you and for us. We use these four models but we are open to any other proposal.    Fixed Price Modelis offered for services with relatively low-to-medium levels of complexity.  We agree on a price and we deliver it. Requirements need to be detailed.    Time and Material model sometimes, it's not possible to define the whole project before starting or it's too complex to define. Here, we agree on the resources allocated to the project.    Full Time Equivalent model helps to get more work done with more cost savings.     Transaction-based pricing Model is best suited for projects with high volume and repetitive processes.  Some of our clients want us to develop, maintain and give support for the whole development. A good tactic is to link the cost to a business transaction like pay per invoice, per character entered, per account transactions, you name it.
Infrastructure In our business, new or existing clients may have urgent needs and their business just cannot afford a one month warm up to start a project. This is especially the case when we work with other development companies who cannot let go a business opportunity.      That is why we always reserve space for emergencies to incorporate new employees. We are always ready for any urgent project.    Our facilities include 20,000 Sq.ft. in the heart of Chennai with 250+ Seats Training facilities Centralized Uninterrupted Power supply for seamless operation Intel workstations with latest configuration for all users Security Swipe Card for all employees Physical Security guard Hosted remote backup server for Disaster recovery Hosted Email & Groupware Automated Server backup service integrated with all servers State-of-the-art EPABX system and VOIP enabled services Dedicated leased data circuit with fail-over DSL link Centralized Antivirus & Antispyware server to protect from threat Intranet Collaboration Server Dedicated Internal System Support Team
