Idea Generation

Clients communicate requirements to the leadership and project team members, who will work closely with them to understand their needs and vision. The Revelo group works together to brainstorm and generate ideas to be taken into development. Ideas that arise within the team are brought to clients for review and approval.

Business Requirements

Project and technical team members and leadership analyze the business goals that this project is intended to accomplish and prioritize requirements.

Technical Requirements

Business analysts and developers put together a plan on how to meet the business requirements and propose features. This is a living document that will evolve throughout the development process.

Application Development

Developers begin building the product and conduct unit testing, ensuring that the code can handle its requirements.

Documentation

Analysts produce peer-reviewed documentation and user manuals to support testers and end users.

Deployment

The product is deployed first to the test environment, where functional and end-to-end testing takes place. Once that testing has successfully completed, it is deployed to the production environment, where all end users receive access. Any issues that arise will be addressed by the developers.

Testing

Testers ensure that the product functions, meets requirements, complies with 508 accessibility standards, holds up to a realistic environment, and has no security weaknesses. Learn about our testing process.
