QMS is adept at several agile frameworks approaches namely: SCRUM, Kanban and Extreme Programming. We use a specific framework depending on the customer priorities or customer development process maturity. Our agile approach provides our customers with several opportunities to collaborate with our development teams – prior to, during, and after each sprint.

By involving our customers in every step of the project, there is continual collaboration between our customer and the development team, providing more opportunities for the team to truly understand the customer’s business needs. Our development team’s ability to deliver working software early and frequently increases our customer’s trust in our development team’s ability to deliver high-quality working software and encourages them to be more deeply engaged in the project.

Our use of time-boxed, fixed schedule sprints, new features are delivered quickly and frequently, with a high level of predictability. Our customers determine the priority of features in each sprint, the team understands the most important features to the customer’s business, and delivers the features that provide the most business value. The sprints provide our customer with the opportunity to release or pre-release the software sooner than planned if the release contains functions that contain significant business value.

QMS customers appreciate the value of our agile development approach, as it not only benefits to our customer but the end user as well. Our customers that have moved to the cloud, reap the significant benefits of the integration of Continuous Integration / Continuous Deployment (CI/CD), DevSecOps and automated testing into our agile development process. The integration of CI/CD, DevSecOps and automated testing further increases the speed of our software delivery, software quality and reduces software defects earlier in the development cycle.
