stpsoft specialise in the requirements
and analysis phase of software or systems projects. Our
consultants are proactive in implementing a
mentoring and skills transfer program for
requirements best practise which is tailored
to each client.
The
niche expertise of our consultants contributes to the shape and
direction of our
software requirements
products. These products have
yielded substantial cost savings for our
clients.
We have helped teams as diverse as those
with few or no standards, to those teams
seeking to tighten and improve an
established process. Our strength lies in
our ability to leverage the best from
industry standards (such as UML) by
proposing
a pragmatic and results driven approach that
does not alienate end-users.

Our Team
Our team of professional consultants have a deep understanding of the issues faced by our
clients,
having spent many years in the fields of
programme and project management, and
business and systems analysis. The team take
pride in their ability to offer pragmatic
solutions to real problems, and hence view
themselves as practitioners rather than as
simply consultants.
Our consultants have a sound
understanding of the leading software and
systems
development methodologies, and are able to
provide independent advice on the strengths
and weaknesses of the various methods.
Moreover, they are able to review a clients
process and recommend a best of
breed approach integrating industry best
practise with the clients strengths.
Our Approach
Our goal is to equip our clients with a
framework and the skills to capture and manage requirements
effectively through improving the way they
currently work. Our approach is driven by
this goal. The approach ensures that there
is stakeholder commitment for change, that
the change is realistic and that the change
is lasting.
Each improvement programme is tailored to the needs of the
client and usually involves the following
activities:
• Initiation - Establish and share the programme vision, objectives
and parameters with
all stakeholders.
• Discovery - Review current software development
process to identify strengths and
improvements, primarily focussing on project
initiation, requirements and analysis.
• Implementation - Mentoring and skills transfer through
either hands-on project involvement or
discrete process improvement workshops.
• Review and Feedback - Periodic reviews to assess the
effectiveness of process improvements and
to identify areas that need fine-tuning.
