The process

How we approach every IT project: big or small, every project follows the same tried-and-tested path. That's what lets us offer fixed-price, fixed-deadline delivery.

Simplicity requires a certain amount of ruthlessness, not carelessness.

— The eCcenTrix KISS rule

01 How we do IT

Every project is a phase of something bigger.

Whether it's a website for a small company or a big application for a corporate Client, we design and build it so that future projects and products integrate seamlessly with the first one.

1

FOUNDATION

A foundation to build on, e.g. a basic website for a small company, or the back-office functionality of a big application.

2

FUNCTIONALITY

Additional functionality, e.g. back-office features for a basic website, or an accounting module for a big application.

3

MODULES

Adding modules to the existing project is easy and can be done as the budget becomes available.

4

APPLICATION

Finally: a full-blown application that you can maintain without eCcenTrix's help!

Why it worksThis approach makes it easy to add modules as you see fit, and it's flexible enough to change later specifications without hurting the project's cost too much.

02 The eCcenTrix development process

Eleven steps. One of them is a party.

For large projects we do the complete systems analysis first and identify the logical phases from the big picture. Each phase then runs through the process below to make sure you're completely satisfied.

Everyone who's ever taken a shower has an idea. It's the person who gets out of the shower, dries off and does something about it who makes a difference.

— Nolan Bushnell
