Development Services
Evolving Solutions with Hitachi Development Services.
Future-Proof Your Solution
Your business environment is always shifting, and your solution needs to keep pace—not just with customer expectations but with the evolving demands of your own organisation.
Our flexible service is designed to support you whether your solution is already live or you’re moving straight from a minimum viable product (MVP) to a continuous service improvement (CSI) model. We handle the ongoing changes and enhancements, so you can focus on what you do best—running your business—without disruption to your daily operations.
Our Approach
Sprints are the heartbeat of our Development Services methodology, breaking down development into manageable, iterative cycles. We proactively work with your team to translate your business needs into manageable user stories. While there is no set standard for sprints, our experience shows us that sprints between three and five weeks work the best.
This ensures that your business will see results following each sprint while leveraging best practices from well-known agile frameworks such as Scrum or Scaled Agile Framework (SaFe).
1) Flexibility & Value Realisation
One of our model’s most significant advantages is flexibility. In a world where requirements and technologies are continually evolving, being able to adapt is crucial. Sprints allow our development teams to pivot and adjust to new information or changing client needs with minimal disruption.
We can scale up and scale down based on your business needs, providing budget flexibility. Unlike the rigid structure of traditional approaches, sprints embrace change and encourage iterative progress.
The iterative nature of our Development Services means that functional versions of the product are delivered at the end of each cycle. This incremental delivery allows for faster releases, enabling you to gain a competitive edge and respond swiftly to user demands.
2) Communication and Collaboration
We promote regular feedback from stakeholders, end-users, and team members. This continuous feedback loop ensures that any issues or changes in requirements are addressed promptly, leading to a more refined and user-centric product. It also allows for continuous improvement, as each sprint is an opportunity to learn and enhance the development process. We ensure that you are kept updated in a way that’s right for you.
Our collaborative environment means our consultants, your business stakeholders, and development teams work closely together. Daily stand-up meetings, sprint reviews, and retrospectives enhance communication and ensure that everyone is on the same page. This collaboration reduces the risk of misunderstandings and keeps the project aligned with your vision and goals.
3) Risk Management
We significantly reduce risk by breaking down the work into smaller, manageable chunks. Any issues or challenges are identified early in the development process, allowing teams to address them before they escalate.
This proactive approach to risk management ensures a smoother development journey and higher-quality deliverables. Furthermore, it allows for recognising patterns and mitigating future risks based on the gathered experience.
4) Business Continuity
Through the enhanced support model, issues in your backlog and incidents in your solution are identified rapidly and can be addressed right away, ensuring that your business is not impacted.
This means that business users can benefit from new functionality while also being rest assured that any challenges will be responded to urgently and effectively.
5) The Right Choice For Your Business
Hitachi Solutions Development Services offers a multitude of benefits, making it a preferred choice when you want to stay agile & flexible. We provide a comprehensive, end-to-end service that goes beyond the technical aspects.
Our focus on business maturity and continuity ensures we engage with your stakeholders and processes, helping shape your business to be resilient against future challenges. Embracing sprints and continuous development not only ensures a more responsive and user-centric approach but also paves the way for innovation and excellence. Harness the power of continuous development and steer your business towards success with Hitachi Solutions.
