The Bimorph Method - Precision Engineering, From Concept to Code
Our process is built on proprietary scoping tools, a rigorous “Golden Thread” methodology, and enterprise-grade standards. This ensures complete transparency, predictable costs, and software that solves the exact problem it was designed for.
Strategic Alignment
Before we write a single line of code, we define the project landscape. We assess the technical feasibility and align on the “Iron Triangle”, balancing scope, time, and cost. This ensures we only commit to projects where we can deliver significant, measurable value.
Included in this phase:
- Feasibility Analysis. Assessing technical viability early ensures the solution is architecturally sound before any budget is committed.
- Technical Qualification. Aligning the proposed technology with your existing IT infrastructure ensures the solution fits seamlessly into your long-term roadmap.
- Cost & Timeline Estimation. Realistic, data-backed estimates provide the confidence needed to secure internal buy-in and budget approval.
Discovery & The Golden Thread
This is a deep-dive (typically 4-12 weeks) into your workflows, systems, and design rules. We use our proprietary scoping tools to capture requirements, assigning a unique ID to every specific scope item, and structure the complete resource plan and project delivery schedule. This creates a “Golden Thread” that tracks every feature and its delivery timeline from this initial meeting through to development, testing, and final acceptance.
Included in this phase:
- Integrated Scoping & Planning. Internal tools capture requirements and map resources, ensuring every deliverable is fully defined and scheduled before work begins.
- The Golden Thread. Assigning a unique, immutable ID to every feature ensures 100% traceability across scoping, development, and testing.
- Workflow Mapping. Mapping your existing workflows to the technical implementation ensures the software integrates seamlessly with how your team operates.
Enterprise Development
This is where we codify your system design rules and workflows into intelligent, automated applications. We combine elite software engineering with computational design to translate intricate geometric logic into production-ready code. Applying this rigor within iterative sprints, we transform “Golden Thread” requirements into tangible features that adhere to a strict internal styling guide based on OOP, SOLID design principles, and Clean Architecture.
Included in this phase:
- Azure DevOps & CI/CD. Automated pipelines ensuring that every build is compiled, tested, and deployable - providing rapid, reliable, and traceable code delivery.
- Senior Architectural Oversight. Daily oversight by senior software architects ensures every line of code meets our enterprise standards and aligns with the broader system design.
- Architecture Decision Records (ADRs). We permanently document the “why” behind key structural and algorithmic decisions to prevent knowledge loss and ensure long-term maintainability.
Rigorous Testing
Because client models vary infinitely, we prioritize rigorous integration and end-to-end testing over theoretical metrics. We guide your team through beta testing using our structured planning tools. Any bugs or feature requests are reported and automatically tracked via their unique “Golden Thread” ID, ensuring total visibility on pass rates and acceptance gates.
Included in this phase:
- Integration & End-to-End Testing. Validating full workflows within your actual environment ensures reliability where isolated unit tests often miss the mark.
- Beta-Testing Support. Structured schedules and dedicated tools enable your team to test effectively and report feedback easily.
- Automated Bug Tracking (Golden Thread). Every reported issue is linked to its original scope ID, giving you total visibility into resolution status and acceptance criteria.
Deployment & Release Strategy
Navigating the complexities of enterprise deployment requires a tailored approach. Whether you require standard MSI installers (WiX) or a custom strategy for silent network updates, we engineer the process to fit your specific IT infrastructure. Strict enforcement of Semantic Versioning ensures every update is predictable, safe, and fully traceable via tagged releases in Azure.
Included in this phase:
- Semantic Versioning. Ensuring clear, predictable version control so your team always understands the impact of an update.
- Traceable Releases. Every deployment is tagged in Azure, allowing us to instantly pinpoint the exact code state of any version running in your firm.
- Custom Installers. Whether via MSI (WiX) or silent zip updates, we engineer a release process that complies with your specific IT security policies.
Lifecycle & Support
Designing for the entire software lifecycle establishes the operational protocols necessary for long-term stability. Our support models adapt to your internal capabilities - whether you require a fully managed service (“We build it, we run it”) or a structured technical handover to your in-house engineers (“We build it, you run it”). This ensures your application remains performant and maintained long after deployment.
Included in this phase:
- SLA Support Packages. Tailored response times and resolution guarantees ensuring your critical operations remain uninterrupted.
- Technical Onboarding. Comprehensive documentation and architectural walkthroughs designed for your in-house software engineers.
- Long-Term Maintenance. Proactive compatibility updates for host-application API changes and targeted performance profiling to maximize the lifespan and efficiency of your software.
Our Standards - Driven by Technical Excellence
We are transparent, precise, and technically rigorous. By combining deep knowledge of software architecture and engineering with our own proprietary tooling, we minimize risk and maximize the lifespan of your software investment.
- Proprietary Scoping. Our proprietary scoping tools generate a unique ID for every epic, feature, and backlog item, syncing them directly to Azure DevOps. These IDs link to our resource planning tools, ensuring your business requirements are traceable from the first planning session to final user acceptance via our "Golden Thread".
- Low Technical Debt. We typically maintain <10% technical debt. This discipline delivers superior stability and a minimal maintenance burden. It ensures frictionless extensibility, meaning your software can adapt to changing requirements without accumulating the complexity that leads to costly re-writes - protecting your long-term investment.
- Clean Architecture. Strict adherence to SOLID principles and Clean Architecture ensures technology independence. By decoupling your core business logic from the UI and external frameworks, we make the application easier to test and upgrade. As technology evolves, your core intellectual property remains safe, portable, and future-proof.
- Domain Driven Design. DDD aligns software design directly to your business goals. Using your specific industry vocabulary within the software architecture ensures we speak the same language, and our technical implementation maps exactly to your team's domain knowledge.
- Computational Engineering. We combine software engineering with computational design to codify complex system design rules and geometric logic into robust automation solutions. This unique capability enables us to deliver intelligent software that is unmatched in our industry.
- Transparent Governance. Using our "Golden Thread", we provide detailed monthly reports linked directly to Azure. As requirements evolve, feature requests are captured instantly in these reports, giving you total visibility over development progress and budget allocation within an Agile framework.
