Our Software Development Approach - Unique & Effective

Our Approach

Our Agile & Modular Re-Use Approach

What differentiates our custom business software development services from other companies? It’s our Agile and modular re-use approach. Developed over 2.5 decades, our unique, custom business application approach is an important differentiator from other software application development companies.

Software Development Solutions…

Application and software development is our core business. We have been designing and creating custom business applications for over 25 years. We specialize in Agile customized software application development that evolves with your business.

Our software development services provide you with alternatives to off-the-shelf software options. If a software package is not available in your industry or doesn’t suit your business needs, we work with you to design a powerful, flexible, easy to use software application that will drive your business success.

We implement a project-based approach for all of our software development projects. This allows for our engineers to help you design a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) strategy that will keep your project on track and on budget. Once the MVP is built out, you can then enhance the software for what your users need most, and even develop your software over a period of time. The result of this approach is a well thought out software solution that makes sense to your end users.

Designed Around You…

Instead of making the user adapt to the software, we make the software adapt to the user.

We design your custom software around YOUR needs. Every aspect is fully customizable, putting control in your hands, instead of the hands of a third party vendor that doesn’t understand your business.

Effective Modular Re-use Approach…

Our custom software development methodology is very unique in our industry. The process of “assembling” software applications from existing libraries and functionality saves your company time & money.

During our Agile software development process, we capture useful libraries and functionality as reusable software components. Each component contains a specific group of functionality that performs a specific group of tasks.

When components are assembled together, they begin to form a software application. These components can be reused in different applications.

Our software engineers utilize these reusable software components to build business applications in less time and at a reduced cost when compared to of our competitors. This methodology results in a shorter development cycle, using time-tested yet fully customized software that suits your unique business processes.

Application Development from the Ground Up…

In addition to creating software applications from reusable components, we design and develop applications from the ground up. We complete an analysis of the business processes, then our software engineers produce a full custom business application to fit your needs.

We employ similar methods as in our modular reuse approach, utilizing reusable components wherever possible.

Technical Support…

From our St. Louis area offices, we provide complete technical support for your customized software application. In most cases, you will speak directly with the individual who wrote the application, ensuring quick answers to your questions.

See our Success Stories to hear about how we helped just a few of our clients take control of their development projects.

The Swip Systems team was a key and integral partner in the implementation project. This was Tapco’s first migration to a different EPR system in 30 years. Their expertise gave accountability and guidance every step on the long and detailed implementation journey and kept us focused on the weekly tasks, resulting in a successful migration. When needed, the Swip Systems team called upon their network for additional outside resources.

We’re challenging the status quo in our industry. So much of what’s out there is cookie-cutter and filled with buzzwords. It’s all designed for ‘the average rep,’ but we refuse to settle for average. Our mission is to deliver exceptional service tailored to each client’s individual goals. Instead of making our clients fit into technology, we’re crafting technology around them. We’ve recognized the need for a more robust system that embraces customization to truly serve our unique clients.

The development company we had been using was in over their heads and had become non-responsive to our needs. We arrived at Swip Systems with a bit of a disaster. Even though the platform we are using was newer to Swip Systems the team was able to get on top of our biggest problems and many smaller ones. It’s very reassuring to have Swip Systems in our toolbox. – Mary Nussbaum – Data Manager

Swip Systems resolved the problems in our web application that was originally designed by an offshore company. I am now able to do things in my web app that I’ve been trying to get done for 5 years.
