Requirements Gathering
A requirement to a successful projectDuring this phase, Punchcode Studios collaborates with stakeholders to determine their needs as well as the needs of any additional users. The deliverable for this phase is a set of functional and non-functional documents that clearly illustrate the expecations of the software.

Design
Impactful Design makes a lasting impression
This stage is focused on deciding how the software will be implemented. Consideration is given for architectural and component composition as well as the look and feel of the user interface (UI). Punchcode Studios has extensive experience in creating and adhering to the deliverables from this phase which include comprehensive design documents such as style guides, flowcharts and story boards.

Testing
All code is as good as its testing
During this phase, the software is put through extensive testing to ensure a high quality product is ultimately deployed to the end user. Punchcode Studios has extensive experience with various testing frameworks and methodologies including automated unit and functional testing used to minimize potential risk introduced with future development and promote proper quality assurance (QA) resource managment. Punchcode Studios efficiently provides solutions to issues found during third-party QA testing with minimal amounts of rework.

Deployment
A perfect deployment is one that goes unnoticedDuring this phase, the software is now delivered to the end user.

Maintenance
An investment in maintainable code today pays dividends tomorrow
Any issues that are discovered through end-user experiences are addressed during this phase. This phase also allows consideration for any enhancements or changes to initial requirements not previously addressed during the previous phases. Often under this circumstance, the SDLC begins again at the first step. Punchcode Studios demostrates the ability to efficiently and effectively address any issues discovered post-deployment and will reliably offer a solution that will remediate any adverse side effects, as well as implement preventative measures to ensure a comprehensive solution is achieved.
