Software Maintenance at Nexsus!!

At Nexsus Techno Solutions we believe that enterprises have significant investments in IT assets to execute their business and derive appropriate returns. These investments often are made over a period of time and spread across the technology spectrum i.e. spanning from legacy platforms to client-server system to more contemporary multi-tier browser-based systems.

With the business landscapes continuously changing alongside the newer and better technologies, application maintenance can prove quite challenging. Surveys of IT spend indicates that organizations spend up to 70% of their IT budget on non-discretionary costs - in other words, costs to maintain current IT functionality and operations. Therefore, it is imperative that the costs of IT management and application maintenance becomes more effective and efficient, thus providing your business the edge to compete.

Nexsus: Offering Best quality control and assurance

At Nexsus Techno Solutions we believe that Quality control is a process employed to ensure the best level of quality in a product or service. The basic goal of quality control is to ensure that the products, services, or processes provided meet specific requirements and are dependable, satisfactory, and fiscally sound.

Essentially, quality control involves the examination of a product, service, or process for certain levels of quality. The goal of our quality control team is to identify products or services that do not meet a company's specified standards of quality. If a problem is identified, the job of a quality control team or professional may involve stopping production temporarily. Depending on the particular service or product, as well as the type of problem identified, production or implementation may not cease entirely. Usually, it is not the job of a quality control team or professional to correct quality issues. Typically, other individuals are involved in the process of discovering the cause of quality issues and fixing them. Once such problems are overcome, the product, service, or process continues production or implementation as usual.

Quality control can cover not just products, services, and processes, but also people. Employees are an important part of any company. If a company has employees that don't have adequate skills or training, have trouble understanding directions, or are misinformed, quality may be severely diminished. When quality control is considered in terms of human beings, it concerns correctable issues. However, it should not be confused with human resource issues.

This is established through comprehensive IT Project Portfolio Management (PPM)-for consolidated visibility and measurement of IT project progress including resource and skills allocation across lines of business. Additionally in-depth application metrics provide PPM dashboard capabilities that are extended through the collection of critical application-level metrics for real-time progress and estimation, such as code quality, reuse levels, volume measurements and artifact relationships.

Nexsus Techno Solutions: Consulting Services

For the implementation of enterprise solutions; we delve into the crux of various visible factors, like proper understanding of domain, work processes, inter and intra-enterprise relationship management etc., since any enterprise-wide solution affects such factors at different levels.

Nexsus understands it's client's specific requirements before designing the solutions. From organizational to process mapping, we work with clients at a grass root level to assess the requirement.

The internal domain specialists develop the solution with mandible support from our technology experts. The whole procedure is tested meticulously and implemented at the client's location(s).

IT competence in the SME sector is low compared to large enterprises, due to the lack of well-grounded IT departments. The computerization is in islands with automated functions like accounts, payroll and inventory.

We have observed that these are standalone applications and they cannot be logically integrated into a common architecture as they do not function in harmony.

Facing stringent budgetary constraints, SME's need IT consulting support to ensure best value for money. We have maneuvered our services to assist SME's in procuring scalable IT solutions for gaining optimum superiority in business. All infrastructural shortcomings are dissolved in this process.
