Assess Software Quality to Optimise Your Business
3:33

In today’s competitive business environment, the quality of software and systems supporting operations is crucial for achieving positive business outcomes. With more than a decade of experience in optimising software for clients, we have the expertise to assist you in achieving similar results. We have developed a Software Quality Assessment tool designed to improve performance, efficiency, and security across your applications and platforms.

Benefits and Process of Software Quality Assessment

Beyond ensuring applications run smoothly, assessing your software and systems yields several tangible benefits:

  • Early detection and correction of flaws significantly reduce errors in later development stages.
  • Operational efficiency optimisation through improved code quality and test automation supports sustainable maintenance.
  • Evaluation of development process quality and code security fortifies defences against vulnerabilities, crucial in today’s environment.

These improvements ensure more resilient software, fostering innovation and continuous enhancement. Combining robustness, innovation, and continuous improvement processes positions you as a standout player in the competitive business landscape.

In summary, this assessment aims to pinpoint your current software status and outline necessary improvements to propel your business forward.

Key Areas Analysed in Software Quality Assessment

Our Software Quality Assessment covers six critical areas, each offering pathways to enhance software resilience, efficiency, and security:

  1. Knowledge Distribution

    We evaluate if knowledge is effectively shared, fostering team collaboration and reducing individual dependencies. Preventing information loss when team members depart is crucial; we can help establish effective mechanisms to avoid this.

  2. Code Quality

    We assess code robustness and clarity, maintaining high standards for long-term comprehension and maintenance. Quality code is timeless, and we recommend courses to help your team achieve this.

  3. Code Extensibility

    We review code adaptability to ensure seamless integration of future expansions. Courses are available to empower your team in developing highly scalable code.

  4. Test Automation

    We analyse the effectiveness of your automated tests, optimising processes and detecting potential issues early on. Dive into Test-Driven Development (TDD) with our recommended ebook.

  5. Development Process Quality

    We evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of your development processes, identifying areas for improvement and helping you create actionable plans.

  6. Code Security

    Emphasising code security, we identify and address vulnerabilities to enhance protection. Read our latest insights from late 2023 on this crucial aspect.

These six areas form the foundation of our assessment process. For deeper insights, optional modules include technology quality and security, organisational culture, cross-product analysis, cloud migration readiness, and delivery efficiency and scalability.

Conclusion

Software and systems assessment delivers tangible changes and significant benefits to businesses. Adopting this practice prepares your company for digital challenges, establishing a robust foundation for growth and operational excellence.
