Methodology
The NowForce Framework.
Five phases. Stakeholder gates at every step. Zero open P1 defects at go-live.
- 01
Discover
Stakeholder interviews, process mapping, environment assessment, and success criteria definition. We don’t write a single line of code until we fully understand your business goals, current pain points, and definition of success.
- Stakeholder Workshops
- Process Mapping
- Environment Audit
- Success Criteria
- 02
Design
Solution architecture, workflow design, data model planning, and stakeholder sign-off before build. Architecture review board approval is required at this gate.
- Solution Architecture
- Workflow Design
- Data Model
- Stakeholder Sign-Off
- 03
Build
Agile sprint development with bi-weekly demos and continuous feedback loops. Every sprint delivers working functionality that stakeholders can test and approve.
- 2-Week Sprints
- Bi-Weekly Demos
- Continuous Review
- Dev/Test Instances
- 04
Test
System integration testing, user acceptance testing, performance testing, and security review. Zero open P1 defects at go-live is a non-negotiable requirement.
- SIT
- UAT
- Performance Testing
- Security Review
- 05
Optimize
Hypercare support period (4–6 weeks), 90-day business value review, and continuous improvement roadmap. We don’t disappear after go-live.
- Hypercare Period
- 90-Day Review
- Knowledge Transfer
- Continuous Improvement
Engagement models
Start where it makes sense.
Discovery Sprint
A 2-week fixed-fee engagement: stakeholder workshops, current-state mapping, target architecture, and a phased delivery plan with effort estimates.
Full Implementation
Senior-led delivery against the 5-phase framework: Discover → Design → Build → Test → Optimize. Bi-weekly demos, fixed go-live, and 90-day hypercare included.
Managed Services
Ongoing platform operations: release management, enhancement backlog, monitoring, and quarterly value reviews. Onshore, named team, transparent SLAs.
