Software Hardware ResponseAbility<br />
‘Response ability’ basically describes the ‘capability to respond’.<br />
Only deep understanding based on the virtues concentrated<br />
listening and precise observation enables an appropriate<br />
response.<br />
Approximately one fourth of all software projects fail, half of the<br />
projects exceed time and budget due to a lack of ‘understanding’.<br />
Since 1994, the rate of successful projects statistically stagnates<br />
below one third.* Most problems occur right at the beginning due<br />
to a lack of planning and clarity of what exactly is required by<br />
whom at what time and from which supplier. Projects often exceed<br />
their time lines and suffer from fluctuation of knowledgeable<br />
employees and the subsequent loss of concepts and requirements.<br />
Consequently it becomes almost impossible for the project leader<br />
to steer a project within its set ‘boundaries’ and to complete it<br />
successfully.<br />
Business process analysis,<br />
modelling and consulting,<br />
software analysis, general<br />
contractorship, support, and<br />
investment protection.<br />
These are the key elements of a<br />
professional IT project. In each<br />
field c.a.r.u.s. has built up considerable<br />
know-how to be able<br />
to assume full responsibility as a fair partner from start to completion.<br />
It consists of our own analytical experts, a specific and<br />
proven methodology, seventeen years of experience with errors<br />
and error avoidance, reliable frameworks, in house hardware knowhow<br />
and our traditional conviction to be as good as our word.<br />
Within 17 years c.a.r.u.s. has never aborted a single project.<br />
All projects – including the major ones with up to 200 man-years –<br />
are productive and yield a positive ‘Return-on-Investment’.<br />
This is our ResponseAbility.<br />

Understanding is gained<br />

listening and precise<br />
observation – the only<br />
way to create trust<br />
