The van der Laan Design Group can play a key role in mitigating your risk of software development.  With over 20 years experience in successful commercial software development, the firm can bring to your project proven methodologies that  lower your risk, increase your productivity and in the end ensure the product delivered meets or exceeds the requirements to solve the initial problem.

We participate in both Rational Unified Processes: RUP and Agile SCRUM processes.  We have certified developers and project managers in each method available for your project.  ‘Process’ is the insurance policy you need to make sure your software project is both predictable and repeatable.  Without predictability and repeatable results, there is no real way to plan and manage the project.  Software development does not have to be a roll of the dice, you can guarantee the results if you use the methods proven to do so.  Long after the software is delivered and the consultation is closed, your staff will continue to use the process we used to build the project. 

Expertise is your insurance that common and not so common technical or design mistakes will not be made on your project.  Our expertise is in applications that enable MOBILITY.  While we do software development for non-mobile solutions, our deeps experience in all aspects of mobile computer are unequalled in the industry.  Additionally our development staff regularly develop components for UIs like: Silverlight, Flex and other embedded UI solutions.  We have been inventing UI components for more than 15 years for some of the largest companies in the United States and Germany.
