ArrAy Incorporated follows a unique and innovative engagement model that ensures the success of each client project. At the core of the model is the ArrAy Way, a proven methodology that harnesses processes, problem-solving skills and people in a special teaming and knowledge-capture environment. This methodology fosters repeatable results, knowledge transfer and highly integrated working relationships, and it results in world-class levels of software engineering productivity. The methodology is compatible and integrated with all of today's design, development, testing, support and project management methodologies, standards and tools. The ArrAy Way is not intended to replace existing development environments and processes but rather to integrate, enhance and support existing environments. The ArrAy Way emphasizes:

• Peer review and management
• Detailed documentation of acquired knowledge
• Mentoring
• Backup resources for all tasks

The ArrAy Way is our methodology based on self-directed teaming and collaboration that delivers:

• Highly productive results with high levels of quality on a consistent basis
• A collaborative team-based approach that ensures customers benefit from "the power of many"
• A Knowledge Repository tailored for each customer that captures and preserves institutional knowledge, communications and project status information
• ArrAyWeb, a robust portal into each initiative
• An efficient transition period that produces immediate results while ensuring the development of the technical depth and breadth of the team

With the ArrAy Way, customers receive both a solution and a repository of information about the software system under development. The ArrAy Way represents high-quality engineering best practices distilled from decades of experiences and focused on the entire software lifecycle. The ArrAy Way provides customers with major advantages, including:

• World-class software engineering productivity. A scientific approach, fluid teamwork, triage for optimum deployment and the constant application of best practices allow customers to benefit from a proven, disciplined process that delivers measurable results.

• Low cost. ArrAy's unique Dual Shore engagement model mitigates risks and allows customers to benefit from the efficiencies of a U.S. engineer who is often located onsite and works closely with customers, as well as the economics of offshore software engineering and the proven quality of an established methodology.

• Measurable accountability. ArrAy quantifies engagement parameters and stands accountable for delivering against the documented goals of a project.

• Risk mitigation. The ArrAy Way mitigates the customary risks associated with offshore projects and facilitates communications, productivity and work progress against clearly defined objectives.

• Quality. ArrAy consistently delivers very low error regression rates, and we offer built-in quality assurance processes that result in timely, high-quality deliverables.

• Absolute, daily visibility. Customers leverage ArrAyWeb to understand project status in real-time.

• Self-management. The ArrAy Way is self-managing, relieving customers of the burden of direct personnel management while providing frequent feedback and progress reports so that customers remain in control of software engineering.

• Flexibility. Our methodology provides built-in resource redundancy, flexible peak load capability and the availability of a wide variety of technology expertise to support specialized needs.

• Lasting advantages. The Knowledge Repository provides documented and easy to access information about software engineering activities that remain with customers, independent of personnel. It allows customers to benefit from institutional learning and the ability to readily access knowledge and information.

Industry-leading productivity is the hallmark of the ArrAy Way methodology and it pervades our entire methodology. Whether a customer selects our Dual Shore engineering solution or relies on Offshore or Onshore engineering solutions, the ArrAy Way provides a disciplined process for managing and reporting on ongoing activities.
