WHY GENERIC.DE?

Because we develop the
 right thing   right  

Horizontale Darstellung unseres Arbeitsprozesses: 
1.	Erfinden: Startpunkt ist ein Business Problem. Über geführte Ideeentwicklung kommen wir zu einer gangbaren Produktvision. 
2.	Erforschen: Mit der Produkt Vision starten wir die vorgelagerte Konzeptentwicklung. Ergebnis ist ein durchdachtes Lösungskonzept mit Umsetzungsplan.
3.	Entwickeln: Mit dem Lösungskonzept starten wir die Softwareentwicklung im Dual Track Agile: Weiterführende Konzeptionsarbeiten und das Programmieren einzelner Produktinkremente laufen parallel. Am Ende der Phase sind alle Inkremente entwickelt und das Softwareprodukt kann releast werden. 
4.	Erhalten: Wir kümmern uns um das gelaunchte Softwareprodukt, bieten – falls gewünscht – Infrastruktur und Support und führen regelmäßig Updates durch.
Vorteile pro Phase: 
Erfinden: 
•	Ihre Problemstellung ist definiert
•	Verschiedene Lösungs­ideen sind erarbeitet
•	Die vielversprechendste Idee ist validiert
Erforschen: 
•	Ihre Software wird so konzipiert, dass sie perfekt zum Business Case, den Usern & zu Ihrer IT passt 
•	Entwickelbare Arbeitspakete sind erstellt & eingetaktet (Dev-ready)
•	Der Projektplan ist erstellt 
•	Sie erhalten eine realitätsnahe Kostenschätzung
Entwickeln:
•	Hohe Anforderungsqualität durch kontinuierliches Benutzerfeedback (Dual Track)
•	Investitionssicherheit durch saubere Codebasis (Clean Code Development) 
•	Hohe Flexibilität durch agile Projektführung
•	Keine versteckten Lock-In-Effekte – der Quellcode und alle Designs sind Ihr Eigentum
Erhalten: 
•	Falls gewünscht, stellen wir die Infrastruktur
•	Wir empfehlen kontinuierlich neue Technologien
•	Kontinuierliche Sicherheitsupdates
Horizontal representation of our work process:
1.    Invent: The starting point is a business problem. Through guided idea development, we arrive at a viable product vision.
2.    Research: With the product vision, we start the upstream concept development. The result is a well-thought-out solution concept with an implementation plan.
3.    Develop: With the solution concept, we start software development in Dual Track Agile: Further design work and the programming of individual product increments run in parallel. At the end of the phase, all increments have been developed and the software product can be released. 
4.    Maintain: We take care of the launched software product, offer infrastructure and support if desired, and perform regular updates.
Benefits per phase: 
Invention: 
•    Your problem is defined
•    Various solution ideas have been developed
•    The most promising idea has been validated
Research: 
•    Your software is designed to perfectly match the business case, the users, and your IT 
•    Developable work packages have been created and scheduled (dev-ready)
•    The project plan has been created 
•    You receive a realistic cost estimate
Development:
•    High quality requirements thanks to continuous user feedback (dual track)
•    Investment security through clean code base (clean code development)
•    High flexibility through agile project management
•    No hidden lock-in effects – the source code and all designs are your property
Maintain:
•    If desired, we provide the infrastructure
•    We continuously recommend new technologies
•    Continuous security updates

Since everyone is interconnected and everyone has the same project know-how, it simply works. And I save time and money spent on explanations, knowledge transfer, management or coordination.

Wir waren davon beeindruckt, wie schnell sich das generic.de-Team fachlich einge­arbeitet hat und mit welcher Motivation sie an die doch sehr komplexe Thematik heran­gegangen sind. Das Team arbeitet sehr selbständig und legt, genau wie wir, höchsten Wert auf Qualität. So passen Software und unser Anspruch perfekt zusammen!

At the beginning, there was a lot of mocking and prototyping. First, you have to find a service provider who goes along with it. generic.de simply has the right mindset for such challenges — the perfect hands-on mentality.

Das qualifizierte Software Audit von generic.de hat uns bei dem weiteren Prozess sehr geholfen. Das Ergebnis hat uns intern viel Druck genommen. Wir hatten nun eine neutrale Bestätigung von außen, dass wir uns auf einem guten Weg befinden und wussten, an welchen Stellschrauben wir noch arbeiten müssen.

For me as a customer, Clean Code simply gives me the security of being independent. I don't want to be left with a piece of code in 10 years that no one understands anymore and has to start all over again.
Nora Legittimo

SCHOECK COMPONENTS GMBH
I find a beta phase in which there are no bugs or other abnormalities in the software really unusual. But especially in view of our industry, which is extremely safety-focused, this is of course a great thing.
AJ Strandquist
CEO WÜRTH ADDITIVE GROUP
