SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
Merging technology, practical design, and flexibility to create lasting software

Xcalibur employs the latest agile software development techniques and iterative design methodologies including the Rational Unified Process (RUP or UP) and Extreme Programming (XP). In the spirit of these methodologies, we are able to adapt our methods to project sizes and customer preferences.

We recognize that requirements will and do change, and that our customers often have only a subset of requirements when we initiate a project. However, we remain flexible, and by using short development cycles that produce production quality code, we can adapt and refine the requirements in such a way that the customer is completely engaged throughout the process. Our process generates UML artifacts, which provide for clear and comprehensive use cases and design documentation. The end result? Software and documentation that completely matches the customer's expectations.

For some projects, we recognize that a more traditional waterfall approach may be suitable. Our extensive experience in development methodologies and our flexibility enables us to address customer needs efficiently and affordably, regardless of the preferred approach.

We recognize that your top priority is a satisfied end-user. By examining your concerns and objectives, we can create a user interface that meshes seamlessly with the system architecture. The outcome is an easily navigable, efficient application with flexibility for future enhancements and needs. Applications include:

+ Enterprise-level reporting;
+ Health sciences and clinical data management;
+ Government budget management;
+ Office automation;
+ Project management and collaboration;
+ Document management;
+ Grant management;
+ Electronic procurement and commerce.
