Unlocking Business Potential: Business Application Development and Analytics Solutions Accelerate Growth
As business functions become increasingly complex, it is more necessary than ever to reimagine your processes. The Applications and Analytics team at SSR is driven to help our clients improve productivity and profitability. From modernizing operations with customized business applications to improving decision-making through business intelligence to streamlining processes by integrating systems—we tailor our solutions and engagement model to perfectly suit each client’s need.
Let’s pull back the curtain to show you how we improve efficiencies, increase quality, reduce risk, and accelerate business growth for companies of all sizes and across multiple industries.
A Cross-Functional Team Covers All the Bases
We have carefully curated a blend of expertise for our Applications & Analytics team. Clients get much more than a business applications developer when they engage with us. As a team, we are able to provide a depth and breadth of knowledge and have built-in redundancies to mitigate the risk of losing key project or institutional knowledge. Here’s a snapshot of the resources we bring to bear for clients:
Engineering Manager: Create the roadmap, manage project & ensure best practices are implemented
Business Analysts: Define requirements from internal and external sources that meet the business need
User Experience (UI/UX) Designer: Ensure ease-of-use and maintain focus on customer experience
Application: Develop software development solutions that use latest technologies
AI / Data Engineers Design data architecture and developing visualization solutions
Quality Assurance: Test and validate to ensure requirements meet customer need
Outcomes with Tangible Business Value
The umbrella under which we operate is the goal to make our clients’ jobs as easy as possible. To achieve this, we dig deep to understand their processes, uncover opportunities for improvements, and leverage technology to deliver real business value. Our deliverables include:
AI / Business Intelligence and Data Visualization
There is an increasing need for technology to gather, analyze and visualize information and data. The insights gleaned from transparent and trusted data lead to more informed business decisions and the ability to focus on strategy versus analysis.
Layering in technology on an as-needed basis, departments growing and becoming siloed often leads to duplicative processes, errors, and bloated costs. SSR creates integration solutions that increase efficiencies, unify departments and improve the customer experience.
We help clients reimaging their processes to optimize performance, increase accuracy and improve the user experience. We focus on operational needs to automate, simplify and accelerate output. Our development methodology ensures a collaborative effort between our clients and team.
Data is a critical aspect to business and communication. SSR is helping resolve the perpetual battle of information flow between estimating, operations, and finance. Matthew Powell, President Century Fence
Development Methodology: The Best of Both Worlds
Our team takes the best of both waterfall (traditional, linear) and agile (iterative, collaborative) development methodologies and applies them to our development initiatives. We have found this to give us quality collaboration with our clients, streamline the process, and result in better outcomes in less time. The end result of the development process looks something like this:
How We Engage
We work with clients on development initiatives in three different ways: outsourced short-term projects, in-house developer, or fractional development.
Outsourced Projects: Defined starting point and end product agreed to based on need and timeline
In-house Developer: Permanent hire within the organization focused on development and other duties
Fractional Development: Fully equipped, external business application development team scheduled for projects at a fixed, incremental cost over a period of time
We have found that our clients reap the most benefit through our Fractional Application Development program. Through this model, SSR provides ongoing and consistent application development, maintenance, and support that is focused on the priorities of your organization on a flat monthly budget. This program puts a full development team at your disposal on a fraction utilization basis.
“Fractional development makes the engagement more strategic than transactional. This model also allows the client to scale up or down based on their business needs and keeps their costs predictable and stable.”
Raj Muthupandiyan, Director of Software Development
