LibreWorks

Based in Wrocław, Poland, LibreWorks combines consulting, project management and software development. It offers business consulting, project management and software development, and says that each project begins with an understanding of the client's business processes and needs, followed by finding and implementing the right software solution. The company describes its services as market-competitive and delivered from Poland.

Understanding the business before building

The first stage looks at how a client's processes run, what infrastructure it already has, and how its applications fit together. The company says its focus is on understanding business processes and needs, after which it identifies the means and sketches a roadmap for reaching the goals the client has set. This is treated as the foundation for everything else, so that the software reflects the way the business actually runs.

Process modelling, design and prototyping

To describe business processes, the team manages requirements and creates mockups such as clickable wireframes. For a clearer picture of what a client needs, it builds application prototypes as part of the design phase. These prototypes let a client see the idea early, before any production code is written.

Development and quality assurance

LibreWorks works in an Agile way, in short sprints. Its services cover new software as well as redevelopment or further development of existing applications. The company says it creates automated unit, integration and functional tests for every new function and every significant change, which it presents as the way to keep quality high through each release. The team handles deployment, supports the go-live and then evaluates the results of the project.

Enterprise applications and portals

The firm describes its solutions for enterprise applications and portals as easy to use, with user-oriented functions for businesses in different branches. Built-in security, single sign-on, multilingual support and auditing features are presented as ways to integrate new software with a client's existing systems. The company says tailored solutions let clients concentrate on their business and their customers.

Web and mobile applications

The team builds single-page applications using JavaScript, or classic request and response applications where those suit the task better. For mobile, it says it uses current cross-platform technology to produce applications with native-quality performance that run on both Android and iOS from one codebase.

Integrating third-party services

Where a project needs outside services, the firm integrates third-party application programming interfaces to reduce the complexity of development and maintenance. The company says that after launch it can identify and introduce enhancements, such as new functions and refinements, depending on what the results show. The company describes its work as software tailored to specific lines of business.
