At Boost, we approach all our projects using Agile, a collaborative way of working that delivers work in small chunks to allow for constant feedback and quick adjustments.
We're flexible and pragmatic in our approach. We believe strong relationships and deep collaboration create the best outcomes, so we focus on getting to know your organisation, goals and users, and tailor our Agile process to deliver the best outcome for you.
We find out about you, your users and what you want to achieve, and work with you to identify the best solution for your users. We take a co-design approach to all our projects, getting user and stakeholder input from the beginning.
Learn more about our design process →We break your project into manageable, two-week cycles of design, development, and testing. We tackle your highest priority features first and deliver working software every cycle, starting in the first two weeks. You stay in control, approving features as they're built.
Our testing begins on day one. Delivering working software early and often means you can confirm we're building what you need, and we can test our solution with the people who will use it.
Using the feedback from each cycle, we refine our understanding of what your customer needs. You decide where we focus in the next stage. We repeat the cycle of build, test and learn until you're satisfied we've got it right.
Our partnership doesn't end when we launch your product. After go-live, you enter our monthly maintenance cycle, and we'll stay in touch to understand how things are working and create a strategy for the next phase of your project.
Working with Boost, you become part of the development team. Our Agile process creates space for your insights and expertise to shape the final product.
For the duration of your project, you'll give us direction, input and feedback in daily standups, and fortnightly planning and retrospective meetings. You get a clear view of progress, the flow of work and project budget, and insight into how well your product is meeting user needs.
Agile is designed to avoid the risks that come with traditional "Waterfall" software development.
We use four key strategies to make sure we deliver high-quality software that meets genuine user needs, within our clients' budgets and timelines.
We deliver all your make-or-break features, even if priorities change as the project progresses.
Standards, priorities and progress are always clear and visible.
We keep chunks of work manageable to avoid bottlenecks and delays.
We avoid broken focus by completing batches of work before moving on.
We're the only Wellington development company with the Agile expertise to provide Scrum and PSM-certified Agile training to our development clients and other organisations.
