Application Lifecycle Management

Maybe you need the latest, scaleable, competitor busting online application, NOW? Or perhaps your major new initiative is running out of control with slipping timelines and escalating costs? Either way, you need to look at Buildfactory.

Buildfactory, the Agile ALM platform from Answer, automatically controls source code and dependencies, enforcing governance through adjustable quality gates. Bottom line: it eliminates broken builds and increases project velocity.

Importantly, Buildfactory benefits are attainable without wholesale business reengineering or multiple licence fees. It synchronises project teams and puts the ‘last mile’ first – release management becomes central to everything. A real-time web dashboard of the entire project’s progress keeps you up to date and spared of any nasty surprises. We like to make ALM as dull as possible.

With Mike CI we are a leading global innovator in ALM tooling as a hosted/cloud service. Our first online subscription service offers Continuous Integration ‘on-demand’ for more contained projects; providing the same quality control without the overhead of managing infrastructure and environments.
