VP’s Bill DeVoe Spoke at BASD 2017



Velocity Partners offshore software development company is pleased to annouce that our Agile Evangelist, Bill DeVoe, spoke at this year’s Big Apple Scrum Day (BASD) that took place in New York City on May 1st.  The one day community conference focused on Scrum/Agile principles and practices and shared knowledge so participants could discover new practices and learn from their peers.    

Bill DeVoe’s speech at the workshop was titled Agile Transformation Beyond the Team.  In his discussion, Bill addressed the fact that “as change agents, we’re adept at changing IT teams but we experience resistance when talking to HR and Finance.”  He explained how he has successfully engaged HR and Finance teams to support agile transformations in the enterprise.  Bill provided points and practical actions that participants could use to immediately make changes and transformations beyond their IT teams.

Bill has lots of experience in these areas as for the last few years, he was instrumental in helping large health care and financial companies with Agile trasformations.  He witnessed first-hand the challenges the organizations faced in adopting Agile.

Another speaker well-known to us at VP was Bob Galen, whose session was entitled Product Owners – Increasing your Situational Awareness.  He discussed how product owners encounter challenging situations including conversations, negotiations, and decisions every day but that much of the role’s focus is towards stories and backlogs.  His session required interaction from participants and included practicing the best way to handle a myraid of these types of situations.  

Please visit Velocity Partners’ website to see more from Bill in terms of interesting and very informative blogs on Agile and Scrum practices.  Also use our contact form so we can show you how our cost-effective, highly talented Agile offshore development team can provide solutions for your business.

VP’s Agile Nearshore Delivery Centers Offer Optimal Results




At Velocity Partners offshore software development company, we recognize our employees are key to our success, and when you choose our firm, you will benefit by having some of the most talented individuals in the field working on your team.  Once you contact us regarding a project, our first step is to listen to your needs and to ask lots of questions.  By undertaking this as a collaborative effort, we work closely with you and your team to create the most cost-effective solutions. 

We have been in business since 2004, and over the years we have successfully completed hundreds of projects for companies of all sizes.   When we first opened our firm, we debated on the best way to do business and determined that nearshore delivery centers offered clients not only exceptional products but a valuable return on their investment.  We choose Latin America as home to our nearshore delivery centers for several reasons including the expediency of operating our software development services in a Western hemisphere time zone rather than the Eastern hemisphere.  

Latin America was an ideal choice for VP as it also has advanced technology centers as well as a large pool of talented individuals.  In addition as our employee tenure is above industry average, it offers continuity in our teams and helps to facilitate an excellent end result.  All in all, we are pleased to say our instincts served us well as our centers have proven to be efficient, effective business settings and offer clients the opportunity to be on the receiving end of highly competitive, valuable services.  

By using distributed Agile and Scrum methodologies for our software development, we minimize the impact of distribution and provide clients with excellent planning, accurate distribution and optimal value.  See our website to learn more.
