Collaborative Domestic Solution Center

Onshore Delivery, Competitive Costs

Customer value:

High-quality services
Consistent
Competitive pricing
Clear communication
Right sourced team
Time zone alignment

In our continued effort to provide our clients with optimal value, Collaborative Consulting has established a Domestic Software Solution Center in Wausau, Wisconsin. While many organizations have had success in lowering their per-hour development costs using offshore workforces, it has often come at the sacrifice of quality and total cost of ownership. We believe that there are new opportunities to capitalize on the quality, capability, speed, and ease of collaboration of a US-based workforce while balancing cost. This center is an alternative model to offshoring that provides the benefits of an onshore team with a competitive price point.

We believe that the value proposition for this capability is compelling. By engaging an ambitious and energetic US-based workforce with the right program management, tools, and methodology, we deliver solutions of unrivaled quality, while minimizing time to market and optimizing cost.

Our Focus

The Domestic Solution Center focuses on application development and integration throughout the lifecycle, utilizing today’s technologies with a view toward tomorrow’s technologies. Some of the onshore application development and onshore application testing focus areas are web development, mobile application development, data warehousing, both functional and performance testing as well as application support. Specifically, the Domestic Solution Center focuses

on three primary areas of application development, in effect continuing the work our consulting team typically engages in with clients.

Onshore application development and integration: The solution center works to build and integrate software solutions working with our dedicated client teams throughout the software development lifecycle, leveraging Agile and iterative development methodologies to ensure quality and speed of delivery.

Onshore application testing: Our team has the core skills and structure to guarantee proper software testing is executed. The Domestic Solution Center can support testing from both a functional and performance perspective, whether it is software Collaborative has developed, or software that our clients need to have tested to ensure success.

Onshore application support: The Domestic Solution Center team is capable of taking on the responsibility of post-launch support on behalf of our clients to make sure the expected lasting value is achieved from their key applications. This can include applications developed by the Domestic Solution Center or other software that is critical to our clients’ success.
