Technology Services

Maxine’s application development and integration service line solves critical business and technology problems by developing custom software.

When an organization approaches us for a technology upgrade or change, we try that their existing applications must adapt to achieve cost savings, improve performance, and ensure continuity. At Maxine, we work with our Client every day to understand the value of their requirements and to determine the best path forward, one that minimizes total costs and produces enhanced performance.

Applications and business processes must often span systems and enterprises to create real value. Our systems integration teams help clients move in an incremental, pragmatic way away from the ad-hoc integration patterns of the past towards a well-planned future.

We've worked with our alliance vendors to develop a toolkit and approach that supports integration projects. This tool collects best-practice templates, integration deliverable examples, sample framework code, and utilities, allowing our project teams to develop solutions more efficiently.

We've used these tool industries as diverse as telecommunications, media, automotive, health, chemical, retail, and entertainment, and find that it allows as maximizing the true depth and breadth of our experience - beginning on the very first day of each project.

We perform a rapid, 2-6 week report on an enterprise or project-level integration.

Applications can no longer work alone. Maxine Solution has the resources, skill sets and knowledge objects to build the components needed to integrate two or more applications.

Architecture and governance are needed to make sense of integration technology.

One of the ways we transform outdated systems into a valuable part of our clients' businesses is by migrating applications from inflexible, costly environments to modern IT environments such as J2EE or .NET. In order to help organizations select the best course of action for their applications, we have developed specific methods. These methods use a standardized process to chart the vitality of client application landscapes and identify the most cost-effective options for future action.

The value of software testing to a company's performance and reputation is immeasurable. Production flaws and delivery delays can damage profits, competitiveness and customer loyalty.

Maxine takes a strategic approach to quality management, helping you improve business agility while reducing costs and business and technical risks. We work with you to optimize your existing IT investments, integrate new approaches and address quality from a business perspective.

We believe that security is intrinsic to your business processes, development and daily operations. It should be factored into the initial design of any IT or critical infrastructure solution, not bolted on after the fact. The concept we approaches means that cost-effective security begins with the creation of secure systems from the start. When you build security into the overall design of a system whether it is an employee on boarding process or a cloud delivery model – it allows you to create an agile environment that will embrace changes within the security landscape.

There are four elements which support a secure design:

Understanding of the design point for security Knowledge of the threats in the solution’s operating environment Utilization of enabling technologies that provide or enforce secure behaviors Ongoing validation of the secure design

This preemptive approach of Security Solutions can allow you to securely, safely, and confidently adopt new forms of technology. Cloud computing, virtualization, smart grids, business models like tele-working and outsourcing, can be more safely leveraged for cost benefit, innovation and shorter time to market.
