Hi all, � After many meetings both here and in Australia we�ve discovered that a large percentage of companies have a highly informal software development process.� As a result many of these companies have high bug rates and potentially huge problems if a member of the team is removed for some reason (e.g. leaves to another job or is in an accident and is off work for months).� � Small development teams need formality too and the processes implemented don�t need to be restrictive and over-bearing to achieve a significant improvement in quality. This quality improvement then flows on directly to reduce after sales costs for your product. � A recent report from the US National Institute of Standards Technology estimated the impact of software quality in the US to be $59 Billion USD and that potential cost reduction from feasible improvements would be $22 Billion USD.� So what would a 30%+ improvement in quality mean for your software product and business? � For a limited time for Canterbury Software Cluster Members Nightside is offering to do a review of your current software development process and to advise on extensions and/or improvements.� The review would take place at your premises and will only cost $200 + GST for up to two hours that could save you thousands in the future. � So to take up this offer simply contact me via email or phone by the 30th of August. � � Regards, Pete � Peter Brown Managing Director Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] � Nightside Test Design Ltd. 64 Greenpark St. Christchurch New Zealand � Web www.nightside.co.nz � Phone (+64) 3 338-0034 Fax���� (+64) 3 338-2034
