Our Mission
Our mission is simple. It is to provide our clients with the expertise needed to become responsive to their customers, producing the highest quality work possible, and to accommodate the inevitable changes in software development projects.

Our core belief is that Agile Software Development is simply a better way to develop software.

Agile Software Development emphasizes delivering business value to the Customer over process and ceremony. Unlike traditional methodologies, Agile Software Development embraces change rather than resisting it. After all, the Customer is paying for the system so they should receive the system they need, not just what was specified.

The agile philosophy is fundamental to how we work at eXPect more - we are Customer -oriented, not Process-oriented. Whether we are providing coaching and training services, or actually performing software development, our goal is to provide the best value to our customer at all times.

What we value
Individuals and interaction over processes and tools.

Software development is not about process - it is about people. It is about the customer, business analysts, quality assurance analysts, developers, and yes - even project managers. We have learned that the most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face communication.

Working software over comprehensive documentation.

Working, production ready software is the true measure of progress. We value delivering early and often in the development process. We value simple architectures and implementations that can be easily understood by all developers on the project. We value testing so much that it is the first thing we do when we define work units and when we write code.

Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

We understand that communication and collaboration are the key factors to a projects success, and insist on the highest level of client involvment possible. Business people and developers must work together to ensure the right software is delivered.

Responding to change over following a plan.

We value being lean enough to respond to change as introduced by the business customer.
