Changepond uses the following methodology for typical Engineering Services Projects.

A. Needs Analysis
Every engineering project requires a close discussion on the specific needs, the standards to be followed, the procedures to be adopted and the actual project execution sequence. At Changepond our approach is to ensure that the right experts are available for a direct interaction on the way the project needs to be executed. When experts interact, quick rapport is established and suitable delivery methodologies identified for the specific need.

B. Sample Project and Standards Adoption
Given the diverse standards and conventions followed in organizations, the normal approach is to execute a sample project. The objective of this sample project is to

Understand the conventions and standard followed
Establish the interaction process
Establish accurate estimates of the efforts involved
Establish confirmation of capability to execute and expertise

Once the sample project is confirmed one is in a position to establish a more specific and accurate project plan as well as a team to execute the project.

Some projects like rapid prototyping and Analysis follow a different sequence since each need is different.
