HPTxDev

Increasing speed to market and maximizing business value for custom software development

At a glance

Connect, reuse, automate

We’ve seen a growing trend the in recent years, with on the one side an increasing demand for faster and more customized software development, driven by the need to innovate or modernize legacy software. On the other hand, we see an increased focus on fit-for-purpose, security and quality. This has led to the integration of development teams with security and operations (i.e. DevSecOps) and tech innovations to maximize dev productivity. 

HPTxDev integrates these movements and builds on our high-performance teams way of working. HPTxDev enables custom development teams to build faster and to a higher standard by hypersharing Ordina best practices and integrating Business, Developer, Security (incl Compliance and Quality) and Operations. We reuse off-the-shelf components and platforms and automate manual tasks by leveraging the added value, experience and skills Ordina has built up in its 50 years of market experience. Creating customer impact for new developments and during the lifecycle of an application from an end-to-end perspective.

HPTxDev starts with you

Our HPTxDev approach starts with the ambition you have for your organization and your digital strategy that makes it happen. It could be about developing a new business model, optimizing processes or reducing costs. Or perhaps a combination. You know your objectives or destination, and as your digital business partner we would like to learn more about them for our teams. Our Digital Acceleration Services are the bridge from there to the HPTxDev process that focusses on delivering the client goal. It involves the identification and gathering of new initiatives. This is where new ideas, project requirements, or change requests are introduced.

Accelerated development across three stages

Our HPTxDev approach works in three stages, that emphasises flexibility, collaboration, and iterative progress to accelerate development.

Design

Design

Design refers to the conceptualization of the project, where initial ideas or requirements are translated into concrete designs. This includes UX design, system architecture, and the analysis of potential security threats and the design of countermeasures, among other things.

Develop

Develop

Develop describes the actual development of the software. This includes coding and building up the supporting infrastructure, as well as developing test automation and security measures.

Deploy

Deploy

Deploy includes all the steps necessary for the release. It includes final testing, project launch , and subsequent monitoring and maintenance.

Four streams to focus on quality and collaboration

The three stages are intertwined with four streams to ensure a focus on quality and collaboration.

BIZ

BIZ

The BIZ-stream focuses on user-experience and requirements throughout the three stages. During the design stage, they refine requirements and collaborate with other teams on technical and UX design. In the development phase, they ensure that the product meets the business requirements and perform user testing. Finally, in the Deploy phase, they conduct user acceptance testing, provide training, and create user manuals to ensure effective adoption of the software.

DEV

DEV

The DEV stream within the three stages includes architecture and coding. In the design stage, you create the system architecture, plan interactions between system parts, and establish coding standards. In the development phase, you write code, perform automated testing, and collaborate with other streams. During the Deploy phase, the DEV stream ensures proper integration with the existing infrastructure, monitors for issues, and implements fixes as needed.

SEC

SEC

The SEC stream plays a critical role in all stages. In the design stage, they design security measures, perform risk assessments, and ensure compliance with security standards. During development, they perform ongoing security testing, monitor compliance, and verify secure coding practices. In the Deploy phase, the SEC stream performs final security checks and continues to monitor for security threats, ensures ongoing compliance and assist with incident response and recovery when necessary.

OPS

OPS

The OPS stream plays a key role in the software development process. In the design stage, they plan the infrastructure, deployment environment, and CI/CD pipeline. During development, they set up environments and prepare the infrastructure i.e. in containers or hyperscaling. In the deployment phase, they lead the deployment, manage system performance, maintain the infrastructure, handle updates, and troubleshoot system failures. They are also responsible for scaling the infrastructure based on system demand.

Your challenge becomes our challenge

In today's dynamic business environment, our clients are increasingly faced with complex, multidimensional challenges. These challenges demand an interdisciplinary, flexible approach to stay ahead of the curve and drive successful outcomes.

Many organizations struggle with establishing flexible teams. Traditional approaches often lead to siloed units and disjointed objectives. Lack of actionable metrics impede the measurement of progress and detract from the team’s ability to improve. External knowledge and expertise are added into the mix to increase impact, but further complicate this already challenging dynamic.

Consequently, teams may underperform, fail to adapt to changing environments, and provide suboptimal value to the organization.

With the combination of Ordina HPT (High performance teams) and HPTxDev structured stage and stream interactions, we provide the accelerators the our teams need to deliver on our clients goal.
