What is the Genisys Project Strategy?

Genisys Project Strategy (GPS) is the Genisys’ strategy for delivering software-based solutions. GPS is a set of best practices, a project management technique and a strategy for building software-based solutions. It defines how Genisys approaches, manages, and builds technical solutions. GPS is a proven approach to the development and integration of major business systems, providing the total direction to ensure that a quality product is delivered on time and within budget. There are five core principles to the GPS.

• The success of a solution requires that all parties fully understand the business problems that the solution is to solve.
• Software-based solutions should be built systematically. This means that successful solutions are rooted in proven software architectural concepts.
• In order for the design, construction, and delivery of a solution to be clearly monitored and effectively managed, it must be structured into predetermined checkpoints and tasks.
• Solutions must be constructed in short, incremental cycles that validate and refine requirements via constant interaction with all interested parties.
• Management of risk, cultural change, system configuration, and client expectations should be addressed throughout an engagement.

The Components of GPS

GPS provides a consistent work environment for our consultants across all types of projects no matter the client or technology. There are three components of the GPS, each with a common set of checkpoints and roles allowing our consultants to more easily move from project to project.

Solution Management Strategy

The Solution Management Strategy (SMS) is our proven approach for managing software-based solutions. It contains a process, advisements, and a set of tools to help Genisys Consulting Managers lead and manage client engagements. SMS defines the checkpoints and roles to allow the Consulting Managers to effectively manage a project’s deliverables, resources, timelines and budgets.

Solution Development Strategy

The Solution Development Strategy (SDS) is an iterative solution building process within the Genisys Project Strategy framework. SDS guides Genisys Consultants in building technical solutions through prototyping, designing, coding and testing smaller pre-defined components of an application. This approach promotes a more successful implementation in a shorter amount of time.

Solution Best Practices

Solution Best Practices (SBP) is a continuously evolving set of methods and tools that help our consultants successfully implement our solutions. It is a dynamic compendium of common practices, techniques and patterns that provides advisement on many levels to Genisys Consultants, Consulting Managers and strategic partners. SBS provides a compelling added value that differentiates Genisys from its competition.
