Understanding the value delivered by vendors when
outsourcing software development is challenging. The
transparency of the software development process can vary
from vendor to vendor making it impossible to obtain
accurate and consistent reporting of progress toward
delivery deadlines and metrics of software development
efficiency. Crucially this lack of consistency makes it
difficult to compare the value that vendors are
delivering to your organization.
BlueOptima uses sophisticated multivariate statistics to
provide a statistically validated and tested model of
performance based on the objective data feeds available
to it. Using its performance model, BlueOptima provides
complete and consistent transparency of the development
process across all internal projects and external vendors
of software development resources across all geographies.
Accurately estimating the time it takes to complete
software development tasks is a major contributor to the
success or failure of projects remaining on time and on
budget.
BlueOptima provides statistical analysis capabilities
that allow you to estimate the effort required to
complete planned work tasks. These estimations are based
on the time it has taken the specified developers to
undertake similar work in the past. This allows you to
greatly reduce the project risk around projected
timelines and deliverable dates.
Some of the key benefits our clients have told us they
