Custom Application Development

Solutions For Your Custom Needs
Your business needs are specific, and a one-size-fits-all approach won’t do. To stay competitive you need a solution that meets all of your needs, and often that means a packaged solution isn’t an option. Strategic Systems’s custom application development services will help you address the unique business and technology needs of your organization.

All custom application development services are managed using our proven project-management technology, based on industry-standard frameworks.

Software Services

  • Development: Strategic Systems offers full development services – from definition through design, build and test – to complete custom applications that truly meet your business needs. Employing the latest technologies, Strategic Systems delivers flexible, high-quality applications that are easy to deploy, maintain and support. Development timelines are optimized by following project management standards and making use of enterprise-component libraries.
  • Maintenance: Rely on Strategic Systems’ custom application maintenance services to reap the most value from your organization’s existing applications. Let Strategic Systems maintain your current applications and free your limited IT resources to focus on the strategic projects critical to your success. Our application-maintenance services range from day-to-day service needs to long-term maintenance and enhancement programs.
Maintenance is structured to meet the needs of your organization, and typically involves a thorough knowledge transition in an onsite/offshore engagement model. A single point of contact oversees your maintenance needs, ensuring accurate, responsive results. Our proven approach provides worry-free application support, lower total cost of ownership and a fast, knowledgeable response to your needs.
  • Modernization: Strategic Systems application-modernization services will help your organization migrate legacy systems to newer, more capable technologies, saving you time and money. Our modernization services solve complex IT issues such as isolated or unsupported technology platforms, shrinking employee expertise or lack of experience with various integration capabilities. Let Strategic Systems perform an analysis of your existing applications and provide you with targeted options for modernization.
  • Packaged Services: Even when a packaged solution is appropriate, selecting the right one for your organization can be complex and expensive. Time-consuming implementations and difficult user rollouts frequently lead to higher costs of ownership. Strategic Systems will lead you through an effective packaged-services evaluation and selection process, then manage the implementation to ensure your business reaps the most benefits from your limited IT resources.
Strategic Systems offers packaged-service selection and implementation assistance in Customer Relationship Management (CRM); Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP); and Collaboration and Document Management.

Strategic Systems’ architecture-definition services help your organization find the balance between technology and business needs. Our comprehensive approach and focus on sound-design practices help your organization reach its strategic and tactical goals.
