Pierson's Business Analyst Training Helps Companies Save Money and Improve Efficiency
Pierson Requirements Group (www.PiersonRequirementsGroup.com) helps companies save money on software development projects through improved efficiency with business analyst training.
(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 28, 2010 ) Stamford, CT – Companies all around the nation are tightening budgets and looking for ways to increase efficiency to stay competitive and continue company growth in spite of the lagging economy. Business analyst training from Pierson Requirements Group helps businesses engaged in software development reach these goals through better requirements planning.
"Even though the country is already well into the recession, it's not too late for companies to make changes that will save money and allow them to thrive," said Pierson Requirements Group Partner, Joy Matthews. "More importantly, companies can save money without having to make staff cuts. It's all about improving efficiency of the software development process by cutting out redundant steps that result from poorly communicated business requirements."
Pierson's hands-on business analyst training classes put an emphasis on project teamwork and industry best practices. Members of management and staff learn how to more effectively gather, write, and test requirements so the company's needs are clear by the time the requirements reach the development team for coding.
"Poorly executed requirements can mean wasted time and resources when projects have to be redesigned," said Matthews. "The need for redesigns often isn't the coder's fault, but rather a result of ineffective communication before the project even reaches the development phase. If the company's requirements aren't clearly laid out, the development team can't read minds in order to implement them."
Business analyst training classes have helped many of Pierson's customers improve their ROI by eliminating the need for costly redesigns by better planning and communicating project requirements up front. Rather than waste millions of dollars every year on software redevelopment and market release delays, Pierson's customers have seen $144,000 to $192,000 returns while investing only $12,000 to $15,000 on the company's business analyst training classes.
"Pierson's customers have found that it is a 200:1 cost savings to find defects in requirements rather than in the maintenance phase," said Matthews. "The lack of effective requirements gathering and writing leads to 82% of a company's software redesign and maintenance efforts, which can cost a company millions of dollars each year on ineffective software that can't be released. By catching problems during the requirements planning phase, businesses cut out these extra and unnecessary costs."
Business analyst training classes from Pierson Requirements Group help customers' software development teams build consensus-based requirements that ensure greater end-customer satisfaction with a more efficient and less costly development process. Pierson offers business analyst training classes in business requirements analysis, requirements gathering and writing, UML and business modeling, QA testing, project management, JAD facilitation and requirements gathering, as well as mentoring and consulting services.
