Software Outsourcing Contracts Using Older Programming Languages Like Ada

The majority of systems and software in use around the world are operating well and are tried and tested

. The need for standardisation across the software world is quite often driven by marketing rather than useability. It seems that no sooner than a new architecture or version of the latest software is released, we are bombarded with reasons to upgrade everything to this new wonder language, that another version appears and the whole process is started all over again. With this in mind it can be attractive to want to join the latest trend when outsourcing new software products for your production process or in house systems.

What happens though if all your current systems are performing well running on a language or architecture from a decade ago? When new developments are required surely it makes cost effective sense to at least consider using the old structures and languages. In this sense using a software outsourcing company that can offer a solution using the language and systems that you have in place must at least be option number one on the list of possibe project parameters.

There are many companies that will offer software outsourcing facilities but not all of them will offer the range of programming languages that you need and many will be hard pushed to provide a transparent and accountable process from inception to completeion. The use of an ISO 9001:2008 accredited company that is also a UK leader in Lean software production has to be the route to the best outcome involving a trusted process, verifiable stages of development and little or no waste - of either resources or money.

The older languages like ADA are often ignored when new products are commisioned in C or C++ but when all your current controllers and systems use ADA and you need to expand it is essential that the software outsourcing company that you engage is capable and emminently qualified to produce the results you require in your chosen language not a language that they want you to work in!

The ADA language grew out of the need to consolidate all the programming languages used by the US DoD until 1977 when the project was initiated and took until 1983 to complete when it superceded all previously used languages. It is a statically typed, imperative, wide spectrum and object orientated high-level language.

The need for a trusted software outsourcing company is one thing but the need for one that will take the process in its entirity and use Lean management techniques throughout is paramount. The use of a company that also has a Lean consulting branch to its portfolio is doubly reasuring as any company that is so well versed in the Lean process and techniques that it also offers it services on consultation basis will provide your project with the commitment to waste reduction and operational transparency. When you have to report back to your superiors on project progression and status, only this report and transparency based approach can give you the confidence to summarise and report back with confidence.
