There are dozens of values which companies could present as the most important. But in ArdentCode we truly believe that pro-activity is our own key to build long-term and meaningful cooperation with business partners.
At the beginning of business cooperation, both sides agree on the terms regarding the conditions and scope of work. At this stage it is difficult to decide what else should be taken into account. When developers and experts from ArdentCode connect with internal client’s team to build a blended team, they find areas which could be re-defined or developed. Based on mutual trust and respect, we can discuss additional projects or project areas to make an application or solution more effective and user-friendly.
How do we understand pro-activity?
In our structures we are familiar with providing all the results and effects which were referred to in the contract. This is the priority. What is also important is that we are open-minded, and therefore we look carefully at other areas, not only based on development. For example, in the course of fostering Project One, for Wolters Kluwer, we also took care of task management in JIRA. Another example is our work with Spotler, when we configured and maintained CI/CD infrastructure to automate application builds. In the last few months, for one of our clients we applied our knowledge and experience to check the architecture and software development process from a performance point of view.
Why is pro-activity a game-changer?
We know that details make huge difference for quality. For instance, turning on cameras during meetings, sharing live examples at the demo instead of presenting slides or, finally, contributing our technical and process-related observations on how to improve the development of the project. These and many other “tiny” changes create a connection based on professionalism, trust and intuitive willingness to improve.
In ArdentCode pro-activity and client-oriented attitude is natural, embedded in the work culture and work ethic. Meeting the needs of customers, which becomes part of daily operations, is one of the foundations of work at the company. Already at the recruitment stage, we verify that candidates will adjust themselves to the structures of a team whose pro-activity is part of the primary offer to customers.
