Custom Software Development
For many companies, a majority of their Management Information System and Process System needs can be met with existing packaged software. However, organizations also have features which distinquish them from their peers. This is what makes them unique and therefore competitive, and custom software, hardware and/or processes are often required to express and/or manage those features.
KCI recognises that we provide our services into your culture, and so we have learned to adopt a balance of development environments and processes, and put the client's usual tools and processes first.
