Innovative vSoftwareAnalyst™ services provided by an experienced and successful Software Analyst.

Usually a support role to either the Software Architect and/or the Product Manager, the Software Analyst is responsible for analyzing software implementation.  Whether to improve or re-engineer existing models, or define new solutions , this role requires an ability to understand the fundamentals of software implementation.  This position is most often confused with that of the software programmer.  The software programmer often consumes the services of the Software Analyst.

Some of the responsibilities of a Software Analyst include:

Analysis and documentation of existing or proposed software implementations,

Identification and specification of possible improvements to software implementations, and

A consumer focused needs-based cost-value weighting of proposed solutions.

Although an individual project budget may not allow for a Software Architect and/or Product Manager, it is always a good idea to seek the services of a true Software Analyst.  Although this role can be successfully delegated to software programmers, they must possess both relevant talent and experience.  Although domain expertise with the type of software implementation being analyzed is advantageous, the methodologies of the professional allow for predictable and valuable results no matter what their initial understanding of the requirements may be.  Highly skilled and experienced software programmers may be able to perform adequately.

It is essential to balance the budget between software analysis and software programming.  If you are launching into development without the benefit of a true Software Analyst, you should seriously consider the value that can be realized through the reallocation of development resources to the fulfillment of this role.  Lack of proper Software Analysis can lead to increased development and maintenance costs.
