About
Us
Marbles helps businesses
engineer and implement software and software development processes for
better, faster, less expensive results. As a leader in the delivery
of mission-critical, enterprise software solutions, our expertise is
second to none. Our advanced development methodologies emphasize business
results first. By taking an incremental, get-something-started approach
and using continual testing and revision, we are able to improve quality,
streamline development and reduce costs. The benefits to you include:
Functional,
working software in 2 week timeframes
Continuous
communications loop
Rapid
adoption of change
Greater
control of your project and budget
Flexible
development process (changing requirements are no problem)
Our Approach
Under
our development approach, architects, coders, and project managers all
have common goals and responsibilities. Instead of traditional segregation
of roles by functional area, you have a bullpen area where continual
communications abound. The objective is to take small steps and review
often. Initially, we make a mini functional module or skeletal/structural
prototype and then iterate on it. As development continues, we add features
to the core platform. As the design is tested, small changes and redesigns
occur. That way, there are no big surprises or large blocks of code
that have to be rewritten after months of work. Embracing real-time
change is the key. Users change their minds. Requirements change. Miscommunication
occurs. Thatıs life. With our approach, change is good. It represents
progress. In fact, customers and end users can see this progress on
a weekly basis. And every 2 to 3 weeks you have new functional software
thus creating constant feedback. So communication remains strong and
expectations are always in alignment.
Our Values
Marbles
operates its business on the practical application of Christian values
for the mutual benefit of co-workers and their families, customers,
shareholders, suppliers and the community. We are committed to providing
an environment where there is harmony between our work, our moral/ethical
values and our family responsibilities and where everyone is treated
justly.
