When customers are purchasing time and material based development, transparency is essential to maintain integrity and trust. We like to report on how the time is being used and what the customer gets.
In order to provide detailed information on the people working on
your project or the details of work undertaken, we log and review
efforts on your project. Reports can be provided weekly or monthly and
sent to you in a spreadsheet. This is available for larger projects
where work is paid by the hour / day.
The tracker is used to
for all parties to discuss and resolve issues, generally there are many
different levels of issue and each is assigned to an appropriate tracker
or a new tracker is initiated. One tracker will be used as the parent
tracker for the project and it is used to discuss the overall project
management issues and can end up quite long, it will remain open until
the project ends or is replaced by a new project. Some of these tracker
issues will be quite general and others very specific.
SVN and Git code version control system are used, developers are encouraged to create log entries that accurately describe the changes they have performed to the code. Within the code itself developers are encouraged to comment about their thought processes and to indicate their motivation for the code they create rather than just describing what the functionality does.
The time logger is used to track the length of time our developers spend on individual projects and in some instances subsets of projects.
