WE’VE DONE IT AND WE’RE HELPING OTHERS DO IT

Serving all sectors in the SaaS, Government and Commercial clients

For every organization Agile looks different. Our work is defined by two key differentiators:

Our idea of enterprise agility begins by understanding your current process. We don't start from scratch, but build upon the elements of agility already exhibited in your current process. We will work with you to create the agile flavor that will give you the most flexibility within the constraints of your environment.

We will not copy and paste agile processes from other organizations because we know it doesn't work. We identify the unique elements of your business that are in-line with the agile mindset and then supplementing that process with the agile practices for which you are ready.

How do we build your processes? By conducing a comprehensive role based agile assessment. From there we will have an agility snapshot as well as defined KPIs we can continuously measure through the agile adoption timeline. With these essential elements in-hand we can begin designing a customized adoption roadmap that successfully leverages your unique agile strengths.

WE CAN HELP YOU

Spreading the agile mindset across an organization and manifesting its values and principles is a lot different than just putting a process in place and leaving. We show you how to be agile and then show you how to do it.

We all have them—growing pains. It is how we deal with them that determines the organization we will become. Through our agile optimization services, we make sure that your organization has all the tools it needs to conquer tomorrow's challenges. We integrate BPM, Lean, Six Sigma and CMMI capability with your agile process to further improve upon your agile development lifecycle.

To understand more about the way we do work it is important to understand the way we approach embedded consulting. Our coaches are leading minds in their field. We've broken them based on their individual experience so you know the exact quality to expect from day one. Regardless of the tier of agile coach you're working with, we apply the same philosophy. We have the know-how but only you truly know your organization. Our goal is educate and mentor your internally designated agile coaches in what we know. It's their job to build on their knowledge of your company to truly exceed all expectations of work for us. No one can become as agile capable as your internal coaches and we'll work with you to identify who they are.

Capability Maturity Model Integration or CMMI is increasingly the process level environment standard for organization in the realm of IT. Many of our clients struggle with how to meet and maintain CMMI level three while dealing with the an influx of changing processes. We have experience meeting and maintaining the highest level of CMMI process standards for our clients. First, we develop an internal CMMI audit team of Lean/Six Sigma Black Belts to act as a capability enforcement and oversight. Then, we leverage our Agile Project Management Platform to assess and determine expected CMMI quality ranking.

UTILIZE EVERY TOOL AVAILABLE

Early on, we faced the same question many of you are facing; "How do we adopt an Agile mindset and transform ourselves from our current waterfall process?" The answer was not an easy one. We had to develop our own platform to discover the first step.

The first step was comprehensive role-based Agile Assessment. To understand where our organization wanted to be we first had to uncover where we were—in mindset, in readiness and in support. Now you can leverage our Agile Assessment Platform

DELIVERY, ON-TIME WITHOUT SACRIFICE

Santeon’s outsourcing services provide the benefits of world-class software development, without the mire of hiring an in-house IT team. With offices in Northern Virginia and off-shore, Santeon is a worldwide leader in the Agile community. Santeon utilizes on- and off-shore development, to create a blended product tailor-made to each business’s needs. Santeon consultants see-through the Agile life cycle, from design, coding, and testing, to release.

The Santeon outsourcing program builds upon four key objectives: growth, value, flexibility, and communication. It is the overall goal of Santeon representatives to guide clients in creating their own success story.

GROWTH

The main purpose of software development outsourcing is company growth. The Santeon Agile outsourcing package affords clients the time and energy to focus on its core business strategies without undertaking the burden of bureaucratic procedures. In the safe hands of Santeon consultants, clients can rest assured that their software needs will meet professional standards.

VALUE

With the Agile approach to software, Santeon development teams are empowered by maximizing value and minimizing development time, which allows a quick return on investments. By utilizing Santeon’s value-driven philosophy, clients have the luxury of lower costs and higher profits.

FLEXIBILITY

As the name suggests, the Agile development model prizes flexibility. Santeon consultants meet with clients iteratively, presenting a working version of the software each time. Each iterative meeting essentially adds higher value functionality, and the product is deployed when the client is satisfied.

COMMUNICATION

By meeting iteratively, Santeon consultants open a healthy dialogue with their clients. Coaches work very closely with stakeholders and project sponsors to learn not just how to build the system right, but more importantly what the right system is. Consultants listen thoughtfully as clients test the model. Throughout the production process, Santeon representatives perpetually keep the system in a production-ready state.

Santeon’s outsourcing program is efficient and it provides high value without getting mired in bureaucracy. It is the complete, end-to-end solution for any company that wants to develop quality solutions quickly on a budget.

At Santeon we have developed custom onsite workshops tailored for our customers in easy-to-digest formats from two hours to one day. These workshops cover a wide variety of topics from technical concepts to leadership skills for a variety of diverse audiences at all levels of the organization. Each workshop focuses on hand-on skill development through exercises or simulation games. Some are used to kick-off projects, while others assist ongoing efforts. Each of these are tailored to the unique needs of your business or mission.

When you think about "training," do you think about uncomfortable chairs, a room that is too hot or too cold, and an instructor that drones on endlessly? Or, do you dream about an experience that is engaging, fun, interactive, and challenging? Do you search for a learning experience that feels more like play than like work?

Learning should be fun. Learning should be as much fun as it was when you were in preschool, when learning felt like play. Come play with us at Santeon.

Our courses are designed to be active, physical and experiential in order to help you form stronger bonds with the material. All classes are rooted in real-world application of skills and agile tools. We believe that part of the in-person demonstration of skills is also absorbing the expertise of peers. We believe in feed-forward not feedback. Enabling our students to grow and benefit from continuous improvement to maximize their impact on their organization.
