But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of
denouncing pleasure and
praising pain
was born and will give you a complete account of the system and expound the actual teachings
of the great

Agile software development is a combination of iterative and incremental process models with focus on process adaptability
and customer satisfaction by rapid delivery of working software product. Agile Methods break the
product into small incremental builds. These builds are provided in fortnightly iterations.
Waterfall is a structured software development methodology, and often can be quite rigid.
This is because all the planning takes places prior to a project commencing. Waterfall does
not embrace the fact that requirements and priorities may change throughout a project, whereas
the Agile methodology
is known for its flexibility and achieving the most value in the shortest amount of time.
MVP stands for Minimum Viable Product. This is an important concept in the software world. What you do is design your software,
thinking of all the possible features. You then strip it back to the bare essentials. What’s the “minimum” product
we can build, that has the value we need? The value depends on what you must achieve from the product –
for example the minimum might be that it has certain important functionality and allows it to be bought online
with a credit card. However you might decide that allowing customers to buy “on account” is not necessary
from day one. Therefore if it’s not critical, don’t build it. Then you end up with a leaner product,
costing less, and available much sooner. Then you get feedback and really start to understand what
people want out of the software. You might find out nobody wanted to buy it on account after all.
If you try to think of – and include – every possible feature up front, it takes far longer
to build, which costs a lot more of course, and it simply delays getting it live,
in use and bringing value to your organisation. Find out more about our software consultancy services.
Yes, and we have dozens of examples of this in our portfolio. We work with Microsoft Xamarin and React Native,
allowing our developers to write native Android and iOS apps. For more information see Mobile App Development.
There are numerous advantages to outsourcing software development, the most obvious being you can switch us “on” and “off” as
needed to match your projects requirements. Also, by outsourcing to an established and trusted software house you are gaining access
to our talented team. At 3 GENICS we have everything needed for quality end to end software development.
Building bespoke software allows you to build the software in a way which matches your exact requirements,
providing complete business process optimisation. As opposed to trying to “make something fit” which is a
common occurrence when it comes to off-the-shelf solutions. Most importantly, when 3 GENICS builds your
software, you own the code (or IP / Intellectual Property). This is important because it becomes an asset
to your business and holds its value. It’s a bit like the difference between buying and renting a property.
The first part of the project is called Sprint 0. This is where we fully plan out the system to thoroughly prepare the team for the
project, and to align your teams and 3 GENICS’s teams on the requirements for the project. We will work with your key stakeholders
to create a “Wireframe” of the entire system – designed to the requirements of today rather than how the current system looks & feels
(if one exists). We will also create User Stories to specify each functional and non-functional requirement in detail.
The system will be built using the “Agile” methodology meaning that every 2 weeks you will be given a full demonstration
of work completed to date, an updated Budget/Burn Down and a meeting to plan out the tasks for the next sprint. Eventually
the software will be ready to “go live” and we’ll make that happen,
setting up the application on a production hosting environment. We’ll then support you for the long term.
It depends on the requirements of course. It can be as quick as a couple of months for smaller projects.
On average, we aim for 6 months for larger projects, and resource the team appropriately to deliver in this
timescale. Much larger projects, or those with a complex “critical path”,
can take much longer, or be “ongoing” projects with regular releases. Find out more about working with us.
Yes. You will have full ownership of the intellectual property.
Just over 50 full time employees, 35 of which are developers.
Yes, software development is a great career. 3 GENICS employs dozens of talented developers.
The pay can be fantastic, and it’s a genuinely fun but challenging and interesting job to do.
The world is becoming ever more dependent on technology and developers are hugely in
demand as a result. 3 GENICS is growing fast and has dozens of vacancies available – contact us now!
