As today’s world is preoccupied with digitalization, there are heightened risks from legacy infrastructures which are resulting in operational inefficiencies, escalating IT costs and the inability to compete in a technology-driven landscape. On the other hand, users and customers are exacting in their demands and expectations for improved software solutions at a pace on par with many of the cloud services that they are familiar with outside their work. This strong desire for frequent updates at increased speed has driven the software world to adopt Agile and DevOps, which can offer clients uncompromised quality, superior customer experiences at reduced IT costs.

High-performing IT organizations following Agile experience are proven to have sixty fold fewer service failures and recover 168 times faster than their lower-performing peers.

Trigent would commence development, only after the customer is aligned with the
proposed requirement specification & solution architecture/design, and releases the intermediate versions during the development period to shape up the product as per customer feedback. “During project execution, our experienced & dedicated project managers moderate the communication between clients & developers. We’re completely transparent with clients and provide them a view of the progress made by the development team every day,” affirms Bharat Khatau, Chairman & CEO, Trigent Software.

Trigent’s Fundamental Principles
Each Agile methodology of Trigent applies four foundational values(and 12 supporting principles) in different ways,but all of them rely on this to guide the development and delivery of high-quality, working software:

•Valuing people more highly than processes /tools, because it is the people who respond to business needs and drive the development process.
•Agile does not eliminate documentation, but it streamlines it in a form that gives the developer what is needed to do the work without getting bogged down in minutiae. For instance, user stories are sufficient for a software developer to begin the task of building a new function.
•Trigent’s Agile methods may include the customer at intervals for periodic demos, but a project could just as quickly have an end-user as a daily part of the team and attending all meetings, ensuring the product meets the customer’s business needs. Negotiation is the period when the customer and the product manager work out the details of delivery, with points along the way where the circumstances may be renegotiated.
•Traditional software development regarded change as an expense that has to be avoided. With Agile, the shortness of an iteration means priorities can be shifted from repetition to iteration and new features can be added into the next iteration. Agile's view is that changes provide additional value.
