The Importance of Blueprinting

Anyone who has ever been involved in the development of custom software, even peripherally, is aware of “scope creep”—that unfortunate change in plan, where development of a project gets incrementally longer, and more expensive.

Digital Saber has been witness to this all-too-common phenomenon, and has made it our mission to scope-out all projects thoroughly before we begin to implement any new software projects. We call this process: “blueprinting.”

Through our Application Blueprinting process, we ensure that the business and technical needs are formalized while setting up a platform for ongoing product scalability and flexibility to evolve.

The advantages to blueprinting are many, and include allowing our customers to fully-understand the investment that they can expect, as well as the timeline. Using our requirements capture process, we blueprint a complete project plan, including resources required, timeframe, and a step-by-step process.

We are proud of this process because it not only give the client a complete understanding of their project, and how it will be implemented, but it outlines for us what we will need to do to meet the client’s requirements. There is no better way to provide our clients value and demonstrate the integrity of our skill set than the Digital Saber Application Blueprinting process.
