{ heek : softworks } is a Design/Build Contractor. We specialize in small-to-medium size software development projects. Anything that can be done by one or two developers in a reasonably short amount of time – a year or less, for example. We build Software Products based on your vision. Bring us in when you have an idea and you need business-process geeks to build it for you. “We believe in applying Agile methodology to our projects but only to the degree that it truly helps”, says Captain Obvious. But we’ve all been part of those projects where you need extra people dedicated to managing tasks. That adds a lot of costs and consumes a lot of extra time. Instead, we apply just the right balance of analysis and planning to keep the project on schedule. Let’s not overthink it here. We take a very pragmatic approach to delivering quality software -- a result of many years of experience. It taught us how-and-why software has such a big impact on business operations overall. We understand the true costs and benefits that go into producing software. It’s not just about the technology, it’s about how it interacts with people and process that accentuates its real value. The expectation should be that your application will evolve, right? So then design it for today's requirements -- not what you think it’ll need to do in 3 years. You'd be surprised how much money is wasted on software development when too many assumptions are made about the architecture, the features, the technology … or even without knowing exactly what the customer wants. Our formula is: Be Smart. Keep it Simple. Make it Clean. And then Evolve. Smart, Build using the facts, not assumptions. Simple. You don't need a PhD from MIT to understand the design. Clean. Those who follow us, can easily understand the code and maintain the product. Evolve. Your customers will tell you what works and what doesn’t. After all -- that's what it's really all about, right?
