Project Initiation
We meet with key stakeholders to get an overall idea of the goals the business would like to achieve with the software. A detailed estimate is provided before moving on to a more thorough discovery phase.
Our Process
Organized, Reliable, Effective
Business Oriented
Our products are developed with a goal to deliver on business results for our clients.
Prairie Applications focuses on delivering business value quickly by using the agile software methodology to get feedback early and often from our clients. We provide interactive demonstrations throughout the project, allowing stakeholders to make informed decisions on future priorities.
Delivering Business Value by:
- Automating Inefficiencies
- Increasing Exposure
- Modern Software Architecture
- Automated Test Suite

Automating Inefficiencies
Software that removes the need for mundane office tasks. Employee resources are better spent improving the business when tasks can be automated.
Our Process
Developed with ease of use, maintainability, and performance, our work stands out from the rest.

02
Discovery
We work with key stakeholders and potential users to dig down into the details of the software solution and gather a set of requirements and user stories to add to the product backlog. Afterwards, a detailed quote is provided.
03
Design
With the detailed requirements in hand, our designers begin work on crafting the application screens in a series of image mockups. These mockups are presented and typically go through a revision process based on feedback. On approval, application development begins.
04
Implementation & Testing
Mockups are converted into application code and work begins on the back-end systems and architecture. Automated tests are developed as features are implemented. Working in sprints, the team provides demonstrations of features as they are built, gathering feedback and making further improvements.
05
Deployment
The project is deployed to a location decided by the client. We provide insight into which hosting solutions make the most sense for a particular project. Our goal is to minimize hosting costs, while ensuring performance is not hindered. Scalability is also taken into account for projects expecting large amounts of users.
06
Maintenance
After the project has been completed and deployed to production, we offer maintenance and support plans to assist throughout the softwares life. Upgrading software frameworks is the best way to avoid security vulnerabilities and take advantage of the latest performance improvements.
