We believe that work should be fun. We make our work fun by building a team of talented, positive people who are engaged by the problems we solve, and who actively pursue growth; in themselves and their abilities, in their colleagues, and by enabling our users to succeed.

<strong>Our Management Practices</strong>

We believe in simple, effective management. We achieve this by carefully selecting the smallest number of management processes necessary to satisfy our business' objectives. Once this has been done, we execute these processes in a disciplined, but accessible way.

<strong>Our Software Development Practices</strong>

We believe that developing software products are just like raising children.
[expand title="People"] Children thrive in an environment where they develop resilience. Change is a necessary and vital part of life, and the goal of good parenting should be to enable their children to adapt and thrive when their needs and environment change. To thrive in adulthood, encouraging mature decision making skill and a healthy lifestyle are vital. Ultimately success in life is dependent on sound, mature decision making, but without good health little can be achieved. Key to good health is by adopting a healthy lifestyle, which incorporates eating good, nutritious food and exercise (testing). If these challenges an be met, the individual is able to self actualise through introspection and making sound choices about who they want to become. [/expand]

We also believe that software should be built like a Formula-1 car. Throughout the season, it may become clear that certain parts may not be performing as well as required for success. But it is never an option to skip races. When a weakness is identified, the way to overcome it and win the Championship is to develop replacement parts concurrently, and then swap them in to the race car as and when they become available. Ideally even a mid-race tyre change would be made on the go. <em>The show must go on</em>.

To build and grow great software, we embrace the processes of Continuous Delivery.

<strong>Our Product</strong>

We believe that the measure of our success is how well we can <em>grow our people</em> and how well we <em>enable our users</em> to succeed.

To achieve this success we recognise the need to build a great business. Therefore the #1 product we are building at Right Time is our business itself.
