Overview of Development

David W. Grigsby has been developing professionally for 25 years. A sampling of my experience and skills in a Resume format is available under the Background tab. Due to Non-Disclosures, many projects and clients are not listed.

If your SMB project requires automation or integration development, you will find David is well versed in assisting clients make the necessary choice between resources, schedule and features when managing a development project.

Many different development methodologies and languages can be be used and implemented based on the clients project requirements. Almost all developers are biased to a tool or language, so I endeavor to put the need of the client and project ahead of my personal bias for a given development language, platform or environment.

I have developed applications with complete specs that have taking months to complete or small, RAD (Rapid Application Development) apps in hours with only the customers existing spreadsheets, tables and sketches as specs.

I have been involved and delivered services for clients on projects at every phase of the development lifecycle using many different methodologies. The most common lifecycle phases are listed below only as a point of reference to where you might be in your project:

Envisioning - Design, Research, Analysis, Risk, Validation, Architecture and Documentation
Planning - Specifications, Project Management and collection of user requirements
Developing - Coding and Change Management
Stabilizing - Debugging, Performance and Acceptance Testing and Shipping/Delivery
Support and Maintenance - Help desk, Feature Acceptance, Bug Triage and Bug fix
