Better Software in a Shorter Time

The highly-competitive market situation that exists today has inevitably led to a requirement for the continuous development and improvement of services, products and internal workflows. Key factors in meeting this requirement are software and software development. The reason is that better software can provide services and products with a decisive competitive edge or can significantly improve internal company workflows, which leads to better cost structures and shorter time to market.

We use tried and tested measures that have been exactly targeted to assist in the development of reliable, high-quality software – right from the very start. Defect-related costs and support costs can be reduced. The software is ready to use and ready for the market sooner.

  • Test Management
    imbus test managers guarantee that in their projects, all necessary software tests are done competently, reliably and efficiently – worldwide, at your desired location.
  • Test Methods
    We show your developers and testers how they can detect more defects with less effort! In our training courses and workshops.
  • Test Automation
    imbus shows you the critical success factors that you have to take into account to ensure that your test automation is a worthwhile investment.
  • Agile Testing
    Does your project team take an agile approach to development, for example SCRUM? We help to ensure that test-driven development is really put into practice, and also that system testing keeps up with the faster pace.
  • Test Centres
    We help you to set up a test organisation that is tailor-made for your project, your department or your company.
  • Test Plan Optimisation
    It is not how much you test but what you test that really counts! Our consultants draw up or optimise your test plans for you, so that efforts made for QA and testing are concentrated on the correct and worthwhile tests.
  • Regulatory Conformity
    imbus advises you how to design your development and validation processes in conformance with approval or governance regulations, such as the stipulations of the FDA. Our gap analysis shows you where you stand and where there is still a need to take some action.
 

The imbus Consulting Approach

Our consultancy is based on sound methodology. It is tried and tested in the field, and always tailor-made to fit your individual situation. Our approach to consulting combines different methods, including:

  • Process Analysis
    With structured assessments in accordance wit various models, such as SPICE (ISO/IEC 15504), we identify the weak spots in your software development and the areas with a lot of room for improvement. The result you receive is our well-founded assessment report with specific proposals for short-term, medium-term and long-term improvement measures.
  • Benchmarking
    On the basis of a process analysis, we measure your progress with improvement measures or differences in process maturity in various departments or divisions of your company, thus providing the required transparency.
  • Coaching
    We don’t just give you recommendations, we also accompany you and your team in the course of daily project work, and help to implement the necessary measures. For example, we arrange a practice day to follow up one of our training courses, or we organise workshops and coaching sessions over a longer period of time.
  • Training
    You can make use of all our experience and the extensive portfolio of the imbus Academy to provide basic training and professional development training for your staff. Our consultants work together with you to develop individual training solutions that they will gladly adapt to fit your situation.
