- Project structure
- ・2 project leaders
・1 director
・1 designer
・3 developers
・Client representative
- History of the contract
- Since the delivery time was short and the requirement definition had not been finalized, we were looking for a flexible response.
In addition, we concluded a contract with i-enter because we had a track record of contract development and trusted it.
Technology delivery type
- Project Content
- Build and revamp portal sites for administrators using their own cloud APIs. It also creates services for consumers.
- Project structure
- ・1 project leader
・1 developer
- History of the contract
- Companies that had been contracting projects from end users for many years had various tasks overlapped, making it difficult to carry out work.
Therefore, we were in the process of finding a company that would provide technical support. Therefore, when we proposed support in the laboratory, we came up with the "quantitative work".
FAQ
- I'm confused between lab-type development and contract-type development. Which is better? General Lab
- Lab-type development is suitable for agile development where flexible development is desired while changing specifications as needed. Contract-type development is suitable for development where the deadline and budget are fixed and the development is to be carried out according to specifications. Match your development type with Your Company 's.
- Are you okay with the handling of confidential information? General Lab
- No problem. We have NDA with all of our clients and we have ISMS, so please don't worry about handling confidential information.
- Please tell me the timing of payment. General Lab
- After checking the results of each month, we will make a monthly payment.
- When should I consult with the assignment of development personnel? Lab in general

- I am worried because there are no deliverables and there is no warranty for defects. Growth type Labo
- Consult with the client before the start of the project to set the initial KPIs.
We proceed with the project based on KPIs, and at the end of the set KPI period, we check the achievement level against the KPI together with the client.
We will always proceed with the project while obtaining client approval on the degree of achievement of KPIs.
Unlike contract development, lab-type development does not have the concept of deliverables or defect warranty, but please be assured that we can always measure the degree of achievement against KPIs and flexibly respond to changes in KPIs and specifications.
- Is the security okay? Technology Provision Type Labo
- No problem. Basic security measures are available, but depending on the nature of the project, the security content is customized to enhance security, so please rest assured.
- What will the off-season contract look like? Technology Provision Type Labo
- Every three months, the team can be completely dismantled, or partially dismantled. If you continue to contract only key leaders, you have the advantage of being able to scale your team at any time.
