software development
In today’s global economy the development of software is no longer solely an in-house task. Software development, whether in proprietary or open-source formats, is now being off-shored to India, Eastern Europe, South Africa and elsewhere. Whilst it may be relatively simple to procure software development services, how do businesses know what they are about to sign up to? Project management, specification schedules, change control procedures and scope/project creep are just some of the challenges of software development which we can guide you through.
More and more software development agreements rely on agile processes and the deployment of methodologies such as SCRUM and XP (Extreme Programming). These are not for the feint hearted but can often deliver the best results for cutting edge software or start-up environments. At White & Black we not only have expertise in the drafting of software development agreements but we have firsthand experience of procuring such services and managing software development projects.
