We work very hard to meet tight timelines to keep our clients regulatory compliant.
We deliver in increments through bi-weekly sprints to continually address the top priorities of our clients.

We have multiple teams that work on the product and each team is given flexibility to find a way that best allows them to thrive. We try to keep the static teams to less than 10 to form a micro-team culture. We encourage team members “swarming” on a single issue instead working on issues in silo.
