QA Consulting Process
ScienceSoft’s specialists follow a comprehensive approach to software quality assurance consulting. The key QA consulting stages are:
1
Project get-in
ScienceSoft’s consulting specialists explore the situation in full: they study the relevant documents, interview stakeholder subgroups and examine the existing QA procedures.
2
Analysis and planning
The consulting team identifies problems, possible solutions, and solution-related risks. Relying on the solution and risk analysis, the team develops an action plan and presents it to the customer.
3
Implementation
Upon the customer’s approval, a QA consulting team implements the proposed solutions (or a part of them), supervises the process, prevents possible issues and addresses actual ones (if any). ScienceSoft’s QA consultants ensure knowledge transfer to the customer's QA team.
