Elata Technologies offers a full suite of software project lifecycle services including custom software development, enterprise application integration, legacy system re-engineering and enhancement, and application testing and maintenance. The company’s delivery model incorporates dedicated project managers and an appropriate balance of local and offshore resources that varies according to each project phase.
Currently, the company operates Offshore Dedicated Centers (ODCs) for a number of clients who require highly flexible, customizable and secure software development centers built to handle large work volume and/or continuous software development and maintenance. Elata Technologies manages all processes and functions of the ODCs, from establishment to implementation to routine operations. ODCs allow clients to tap into the low cost technical resources available in India and successfully organize them to meet the highest standard requirements in quality and reliability.
All customer engagement processes are based on Elata Technologies policies, procedures, methodologies and standards. The key difference between project lifecycle services and ODCs is that each ODC has client-dedicated resources that are utilized full-time for an extended period. This 100% utilization offers efficiency via the elimination of bench time typically associated with the project model (utilization of project resources is around 70%). These savings are passed on to clients, who benefit from a lower cost of services.
ODCs have demonstrated immediate benefits to Elata Technologies customers: fast turnaround in solution delivery, economy of scale in development resource utilization, contractual flexibility, and the avoidance of significant capital and other up-front investments.
Unlike many mainstream offshore suppliers that started at the low end of the services value chain, Elata Technologies focused early in its history on new custom development and complex integration projects. Elata Technologies is often brought in at early project stages, such as conceptual definition, planning, architecture and design. The company typically uses small focused project teams that study problems and present alternatives, often creating prototypes that incorporate working code.
For companies around the world which regard global outsourcing as critical for their growth, competitiveness, or survival, Elata Technologies offers a unique combination of exceptional price/performance, flexibility of engagement processes, focus on immediate client needs, collaborative problem solving, and sophisticated data analysis. For each customer or business partner engagement, Elata Technologies quickly and effectively provides the required resources and expertise and performs the task in the shortest time and with excellent efficiencies.
