What We Do

Our team learns the clients’ business and then defines and refines the most important features and their requirements for your development teams. Our IT knowledge helps the team focus on proven solutions and provides a bridge between the business decision makers and software developers. 

How We Do It

We work with product owners and business clients to document project requirements and weighted features. Then, we collaborate with development teams to understand available technologies, integration points, resources, and data process flows. This process is a cycle of defining, refining, and delivering.

Define

What are the most pressing challenges your business faces?
What systems are in place to address these challenges?
What are your users asking for?

SafeNet business analysts lead working sessions with product owners to understand product direction to meet business needs. We shadow power users, research documentation, and review client feedback to uncover functionality gaps. 

Refine

What are the necessary deliverables for each feature?
What is the minimum viable product (MVP) deliverable to give the fastest value and feedback?
