| Large enterprise
customers and technology providers have leveraged AppLabs’
consulting services to reengineer their QA and development
processes. Our strong background in delivering testing
services allows us to identify specific improvements
to your quality management to enable better decisions
that impact the bottom line.
Unlike traditional approaches to quality management
where quality control essentially starts towards the
end of the technology development process, our approach
integrates information needed to trade-off risk of defects
vs. cost of testing at a much earlier stage.
Our consulting solution, called Quality Management
Framework™ (QMF), is a deterministic approach
to quality management that maximizes efficiency and
minimizes risk throughout design, development and deployment
of technology projects. It consists of the following
components that can be customized to fit your organization’s
requirements –
- Assessment: Our consulting process
begins with an assessment of various risks, cost and
quality factors against the backdrop of the company’s
overall technology development process.
- Engagement: Based on the assessment
report and the recommendations, a roadmap for an engagement
is developed,
which serves as a guiding line to the consulting and
testing team.
- Deploying: All the testing procedures
and methodologies are executed within the scope of
the framework.

To get better perspective on our experience with this
service, read the case study below –
| Improved Deployment
of Policy Management System for a Large Insurance
Company |
| The customer
is the business systems division of a Fortune
500 property & casualty insurance company.
They were trying to roll out a new title policy
management system intended to be used by 16,000
users across 1,200 sites. The initial release
was met with severe resistance due to large number
of serious quality and usability issues.
AppLabs was engaged to analyze their quality management
process. Our team identified several areas for
improvement including lack of well-written and
specific product requirements. By successfully
deploying QMF™, AppLabs improved the customer’s
engineering processes and ensured that this system
was released in a transaction-intensive environment
with no disruption to the business operation.
AppLabs’ analysis also revealed that detecting
problems and failures at the planning stage typically
resulted in a 5-40% improvement in overall development
project efficiency. This provided significant
cost savings to the technology development team.
