When you engage with ShiftMETHOD you engage with a business solution partner—a strategic technology consulting team committed to helping you meet your unique objectives.

Industry Experience

ShiftMETHOD has delivered business applications and custom component-based frameworks in the following industries: aircraft/airline, computer, education, energy, horticulture, insurance, healthcare, medical, networking, publishing, software tools, storage, and telecommunications.

We are committed to on-time, within-budget, up-and-running business software solutions.

Enterprise and Web Application Development

Development of new systems and consolidation and integration of existing enterprise systems is second nature to us. Because we don't spend effort on an engagement learning what must already be well known, ShiftMETHOD helps discover the simplest and most robust solutions, and then delivers them.

Enterprise platform experience includes Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) and Microsoft .NET. We build solutions with Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), employing ultra lightweight, messaging, and RPC-based components. Web development includes rich Internet user interfaces (Web 2.0 and AJAX), including touchscreen. Data persistence solutions include object-relational mapping using robust frameworks (Hibernate and TopLink), which is a natural path of domain-driven design.

Architecture, Modeling, and Process

ShiftMETHOD’s software architecture, modeling, and development process experience has been applied to many projects to successfully deliver flexible, maintainable, scalable, and reliable applications. Software architecture and modeling is performed with command of the Unified Modeling Language (UML). We recognize domain modeling as a fundamental step in the architecture modeling phase. Domain Model is only one of the portfolio of architecture patterns we employ.

We work within any process supporting the core agile best practices, such as SCRUM, Rational Unified Process (RUP), and Extreme Programming (XP). We are agile and adaptive without losing focus on the need to deliver. We thrive within requirements- and change-driven projects and environments. We test early and often, which contributes greatly toward quality.

Design and Development

We use domain-driven design as well as object-orient and domain-specific languages to accelerate development. We are true, advanced object methodologists. Our reliance on standard software patterns ensures that we approach design and development from well-known sources of repeatable success formulas.

We possess deep understanding and experience with service- and component-oriented architectures, how to model them, and how to agilely and iteratively design, develop, and deliver them. Hire ShiftMETHOD to deliver better quality service- and component-oriented systems.
