Our Core Offering

Extremely Lean Approach To Custom Software Development

Essentially what we do is sit with the CTO, VP R&D or someone who runs you development team,

take a look at the roadmap, discuss challenges and bottlenecks, look at the composition of the existing

team and then put together a bespoke plan to help you reach your goals faster.

The solution will mainly consist of a mix of full-time and part-time, onsite and offsite resources based

on your requirements. This ensures a fast start, usually within a couple of days, and it avoids the

headache of short-term contractors and long-term hiring.

Let’s say you need a QA engineer for only 2 days a week. A lot of outsourcing companies will insist

that you hire one full- time specialist who will sit on their hands for 60% of the time. With 8allocate, you

only pay for what you need. We’ll provide you with the QA resource who’ll be working on your project

for 2 days out of 5, and you’ll only pay for these 2 days of using QA.

Client Case Stories (Aviation)

• Country: Canada • Solution: Dedicated

Development Team • Business Domain:

Aviation • Technology: ASP .NET

THE SITUATION OBDS was looking to engage a professional external team to help with their

Windows application and server development.

THE SOLUTION Our team joined the OBDS in-house development efforts to update the existing

architecture and introduce new features while removing persistent bugs. With a

clear understanding of the client’s functional and non-functional requirements,

we selected software engineers to join the project, and implemented high

performance indexing solutions with full-text search capabilities along with

several APls.

In addition, we’re helping OBDS conduct research on new 3D models and

create another app to house aircraft maintenance manuals. The development

process comprised two parts: web application and Windows app

implementation.

THE RESULT Upon scaling the client’s in-house IT department, our team implemented critical

upgrades and introduced new features to the outdated flight documentation

management web and mobile applications. Efficient collaboration framework

resulted in a strong development performance.
