Scio combines our nearshore development model with leading edge Agile Custom Application Development practices to deliver best of breed software products, such as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications for our customers. Our experienced development teams use a combination of custom Agile development principles and SCRUM methodology to ensure your initiatives deliver maximum value.

Scio’s Agile Development Practice focuses on rapid and early delivery of business value from the development process and the lowering of risk inherent in traditional waterfall development methods.

We find using Agile principles provides better value to our customers by using a process of iterative planning, and feedback from short, feature-led development cycles and testing.  Agile development are particularly useful for projects that require high collaboration between teams.

Each cycle has measurable objectives and clear deliverables that allow our customer to judge project status and adjust to a changing set of requirements throughout the development process. SCRUM layers a process based methodology on top that specifically addresses how the development team interacts and achieves the Agile principles of development. Together these proven approaches improve the ability of our clients to lower their time to market, respond dynamically to competition, and lower their total cost of development.

Scio offers a flexible delivery model that scales to meet the needs of small, mid-sized, and large companies in a range of industries. Our development center in Morelia, Mexico, is staffed with teams of senior development and software test engineers using the latest technologies along with our Agile Development Practice to deliver high-quality software applications.
