Custom Development

Custom Development

LBi knows how frustrating it is to purchase software only to find it does not quite meet the needs of your business. Let us help. We have years of experience designing custom applications when an off the shelf product just won't cut it.

LBi works directly with our clients to design a solution that will satisfy your requirements. Our design approach involves the client from day one. Our employees are well versed and experienced in many aspects of the project lifecycle - and therefore can work with our clients continuously through the project, building a strong relationship that results in a positive Client Experience.

We start with a series of sessions where we learn about your business. We get to know the people and processes involved. We then use the business knowledge gained to develop specifications which are reviewed by the stakeholders and future users in an iterative process of revisions.

Development begins with a proof of concept or demo to give users early visibility into the application they will soon be using. Throughout the entire development cycle we ensure that users are kept "in the loop". The feedback received during this process helps us catch mistakes and iron out misunderstandings early in the process.

LBi's Quality Assurance team works closely with the developers along the way, identifying bugs before they reach the end users. Our process is tried and true - it has been successful for us with many clients over the years. See our success stories for examples.

LBi understands that the project is not yet complete after development and testing. Our team also delivers superior support material to ensure the application's success:

Unlike large service providers with many layers of bureaucracy, LBi works directly with you. We get inside your business and your markets, offering the kind of personalized attention you deserve. We develop applications and solutions that not only work best, but work best for your business.
