Excellence in management and delivery of Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Power Platform projects
Alfapeople has different methodologies for implementing the Microsoft Business Application platform. The recommended method is defined based on the different business strategies, processes and technology present in the client. These are globally established methodologies adapted to AlfaPeople’s client reality, taking care of the important aspects of a project, such as scope, deadlines, milestones, activities and responsibilities. Learn more about our methods: Waterfall, Agile and Start&Go.
The use of Alfapeople’s methodologies, such as Waterfall, Agile and Start&Go™, defines the pillars for a successful delivery of Alfapeople’s projects. The ideal method is chosen based on the specificities of each client, considering the different business strategies, processes, and technologies. The objective is to offer a balance between agility, structured service and results to the client.
Traditional methodology for implementing systems in large phases, or in a cascade, with a defined scope, in which delivery is made at the end of the project. It uses a predefined set of sequential steps and activities, with little parallelism in the development of each one, in which the following only starts when the previous one is finished. Returning to previous stages may imply re-work and additional investments.
Based on an incremental and interactive process of constant deliveries, it is extremely open to changes in scope or new requirements from stakeholders. These interactions feed a “scope base” known as backlog, which is prioritized as work progresses. Each development sprint has the goal of delivering a viable functional product, also known as an MVP (Minimum Viable Product).
Developed by AlfaPeople, Start&Go™ is a quick deployment strategy, with pre-defined processes and functionalities, training content, application services and support. The implementation follows a methodology similar to Waterfall, in which the phases are pre-defined and, in this case specifically, short, with the objective of delivering a viable, functional product, or MVP (Minimum Viable Product).
