UST Global: Application Development and Maintenance

UST provides unified development processes by leveraging our proven Client-centric Fully Integrated Engagement Model. Our focus in all of our engagements is to deliver on time and within budget, while bringing sustainable value to our client's business. Our teams assume end-to-end responsibility during all phases of a project implementation, including requirement analysis, design, development, testing, and deployment to ensure project success. The following figure illustrates a typical UST project lifecycle—from inception through completion-with the team member involvement indicated for each phase.

We follow a structured approach for project implementations, wherein the whole project is divided into several modules and each module is executed as a unified and integrated process with several iterations.

UST helps clients develop end-to-end solutions that optimally meet their core business objectives. We have a dedicated talent pool reserved for each client that is equipped with the knowledge and expertise specific to the client's vertical area and technology infrastructure. In the case of Web-enabled legacy projects, we follow standard frameworks and open source tools, areas in which we have tremendous expertise. Our custom frameworks are well supported by all the requisite tools for Rapid Application Development (RAD). Our engagements leverage our expertise in managing data at the client site and maintaining client applications to preserve the value of existing code in the client's system.
