Helping to Turn Your Business Challenge into a Competitive Success Powertek provides comprehensive Software Engineering and Systems Integration Services to meet the needs of our Federal Customers. Powertek follows industry best practices based on Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) and the Project Management Institute (PMI) to ensure we meet schedule, cost, and scope expectations. Powertek’s experienced software engineers, developers, and applications professionals employ a responsive development methodology based on lightweight unified development, where iterative planning, use case analysis, and systems architecture are principal tenets. All development activities are grouped into small, manageable, focused iterations or spirals, with well-defined objectives and measures that align with customer priorities. We identify schedules, tasks, resources, and deliverables with defined completion criteria for each iteration. Our change and configuration management practices ensure effective management of change at all levels of the program/project. Software Development and Integration Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) Our experienced engineers take a comprehensive approach based on systems engineering best practices. Our approach begins with the collection and documentation of customer requirements, business processes, policies, standards, and risks. Customer needs are formally documented and tracked from the time they are captured until the system is operational. Over time Information Technology has continued to improve in leaps and bounds. Nevertheless the public and private sector suffer from a vast infection of inefficient stovepipe systems. Powertek consultants are well versed in EAI strategies and understand how to break down the barriers between systems, identify efficiencies, and untangle and simplify these complex environments. Our proven EAI approach helps organizations implement solutions based upon best practice techniques and methods enabling real-time information access across systems, streamline business processing, and maintain data integrity across the enterprise. Usability Studies Information technology is a constantly changing arena filled with buzzwords and catchphrases. Determining whether the latest trend, be it cloud computing, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), or portal technology, works for your organization can be a daunting task. Powertek will help you analyze the options and weed out the rabble from the valuable technology that will take your organization to the next level. Software Development Sound software development is the heart and soul of any IT organization. The wrong team can squander hundreds of thousands of dollars of Government funding and result in years of wasted effort. Using our solid foundation in CMMI and ISO 9001 principles Powertek’s software developers build systems that are both efficient and effective. Over time, the technology “du jour” will inevitably change, but the underlying principles and best practices for software development remain the same. Enterprise Web Services Web services are more than just the latest trend – they provide some very real benefits that become even more valuable as the organization size increases. For example, web services provide an easy means of integrating applications across the enterprise, regardless of the underlying platform. Re-use is also enhanced via the implementation of web services, which in turn results in faster development of applications. When applications are built faster, without sacrificing quality, development costs decrease. If web services are an initiative for your enterprise, let Powertek’s experienced developers help you implement them – and avoid the pitfalls that come with less experienced teams. Data Management For many organizations, the most valuable asset is the data it maintains. However, without solid Data Management processes organizations struggle to make effective use of this vital resource. Powertek’s Data Management experts implement best practices and proven processes designed to maximize data value and availability while at the same time ensuring data integrity and security. Database Administration Experienced IT professionals know that solid Database Administration is critical to the success of computer systems – without it, applications are built upon weak foundations and will eventually become unstable. Whether your needs are to monitor production databases, to optimize data structures and queries, or to develop database applications in a controlled manner, Powertek has skilled technical resources who will ensure that end-products are of the highest quality and that they support your organization’s goals. Quality Assurance and Quality Control Strong Quality Assurance offers a systematic approach to ensure confidence in your application’s suitability for meeting its intended purpose. Through careful planning and dedication, Powertek’s experienced Quality Assurance teams ensure that the correct processes are followed to achieve a superior final product. The end result is a more effective use of resources and a reduction in the amount of rework needed to meet your goals. In the information technology arena, Quality Control remains a critical component for ensuring mission success. Powertek’s Quality Control experts perform thorough testing to validate that the end product will satisfy the requirements of the user. Software Operations and Maintenance Over time, application and business processes continue to grow more and more complex across the enterprise. Automatically and continuously tracking transactions is a challenging task, but the performance management and system availability benefits are well worth the effort. Powertek’s operations and maintenance consultants will help your organization operate at peak efficiency by identifying bottlenecks in the flow of information through your network and systems. We’ll tell you why you’re having a problem, where it’s occurring, and how to fix it. Legacy System Support Legacy System Modernization Many organizations are ready to take the next step towards modernizing their legacy systems, but the path to success is rife with challenges and pitfalls. Powertek’s experienced consultants stand poised to help our customers realize the benefits of newer, more sophisticated, and more efficient technology. We have a deep appreciation of older technology tools and understand how to leverage new technology such as SOA and data mashing techniques to access this critical information while converting to more modern platforms. Migration of data and data access are essential elements in dealing with legacy systems and environments. Whether the end goal is a SOA or a more traditional J2EE or .NET conversion, Powertek has the knowledgeable staff and past performance to ensure your mission success. Legacy System Maintenance In today’s difficult economy many organizations find that the most cost effective solution is to simply maintain their legacy systems. If this is your organization’s approach – Powertek stands ready to help. We provide the experienced personnel and proven processes required to perform corrective and adaptive maintenance on your legacy systems so they can continue to deliver the value you have come to expect. IV&V Services Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) may well be the most under-utilized aspect of information technology services. At Powertek, IV&V is not just lip service as evidenced by our ISO 9001 certification and our CMMI Level 2 maturity rating. Through careful planning and dedication, our experienced Quality Control teams develop verification test cases to determine if the final product reflects the requirements. We use requirements reviews, code reviews, and design reviews to ensure a quality product. |
