Indusa has been assessed successfully for the following Quality standards-

• SEI CMM Level 4 - Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Capability Maturity Model for Software (CMM) Level 4 (Managed)
• ISO 9001-2000 - International Standards Organization (ISO) Quality Management System Standard
• ISO 27001 - International Standards Organization (ISO) specification for Information Security Management System

How adhering to quality standards help.

• All processes are audited on a regular basis. Bottlenecks are identified and corrected.
• Processes are enhanced continuously for better performance. This ensures that unnecessary rework is eliminated from the process.
• The software development methodology used follows proven industry guidelines.
• Reduce scope for failure, since processes are time tested and standardized. There is lucid visibility and control of the entire software development lifecycle.

What if you choose a vendor who doesn’t adhere to any Quality standards? Is there any risk involved?

Absence of a quality standard is like driving on a freeway, which does not have road signs and signals. Often there is a risk of the project going out of schedule, budget and not meeting the basic requirements.

Do you pay anything extra for Quality?

No, you don’t pay anything extra for cost of quality.

If you don’t pay anything extra, how do you accommodate for the same?

By following quality standards and practices production time is reduced significantly. This actually accommodates for the cost of quality in turn.

Could quality actually slow down or delay delivery of your product/solution?

On the contrary adherence to quality procedures expedites the production process and the product/solution is delivered within planned schedule to you.
