Solution brief

The efficient performance of enterprise companies often rests on internal applications and systems. Developing, deploying, and maintaining these applications is a huge job that you can in many cases profitably outsource; at a minimum, a fully integrated test program throughout the application development lifecycle can reduce costly mistakes and improve efficiency and quality. Such a program might include competitive analysis of applications you're considering purchasing, interoperability/compatibility testing to ensure those products won't run into problems with your current environment, globalization testing to ensure your custom applications will work in languages other than English, QA test process optimization, ongoing maintenance of custom programs, and more.

Enterprise Web sites (internal and external) may have to withstand heavy peak loads, whether they're handling e-commerce, customer support, or supply chain management. Load and stress testing will tell you whether your site can handle the kind of traffic the real world dishes out. Usability testing--including our automated live testing helps improve user experience of the Software.


Siparium ERP solutions

Without proper planning, deploying ERP systems and updates can challenge a company's resources and its employees' patience. In fact, the secret to a successful ERP deployment is remarkably simple, and lies in good planning and frequent testing.

Any significant ERP deployment will involve customization and integration with existing applications, and it's here that performance and interoperability problems most often occur. The cost of repairing these defects rises exponentially as the installation progresses; a bug that might have cost $10 to repair during development could cost $10,000 to repair after deployment. We typically begin our ERP deployment, testing, and maintenance engagements with an analysis of your ERP implementation and software lifecycle models. We can and do frequently work with traditional (sequential) as well as more recent, iterative development models and can show you ways to introduce non-disruptive testing early enough to keep you from losing money and time to re-engineering.

Technology layers

At the core of an ERP deployment is a business issue: the need to integrate and streamline your company's processes, whether they be time collection, payroll and receivables, or any of the thousand other functions your systems deal with every day. Directly addressing this need is the innermost technology layer, where your company's data lives—on servers and desktops, in databases, ruled by operating systems. Siparium has traditionally supported companies who maintain Data Processing/Information Systems departments with mainframes and/or networked systems. The newest product line for server and PC file management extends their market to companies with multiple servers or with users located at remote sites.
