		     OFFSHORE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
	   QUALITY PROGRAMMING SERVICES AT COMPETITIVE COSTS
	   =================================================

Alis Software is a Software Development Company based in Kharkov
Ukraine (a former state of the USSR) providing Offshore Development
Services for clients in the West for the last 3 years. Due to the lower
labor costs in Eastern Europe we can provide high quality programming
services at costs that can be up to 6 times less than the rates in the
USA.

Our management team has a total of 15 years combined experience in
software development both in the West and in the East. We have placed
special emphasis on Q/A and Testing over the last 3 years and are
confident that very few companies in the East can match our commitment
and abilities in this area. Internally our motto is, Think First Code
Later.  We can provide references on the projects, successfully
finished for American, European and Australian companies.

How do you benefit?
-------------------
You get top quality programming and development services written to
your specifications and delivered on time and on budget. All source
code is fully documented and tested based on the standard Q/A and
Testing procedures. In addition, we use MS Test for even more extensive
testing of completed modules and programs insuring that what you
receive is tested and verified prior to implementation and signing off
of the contract.  All staff speak, read and write English with 4 of our
staff fluent in English. We of course provide not only full source code
documentation , but can also if needed, provide User Manuals and full
context sensitive Help your programs.

How does Alis keep clients abreast of the development process to ensure
that the design is being implemented according to the client's wishes?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Alis provides demos at agreed project milestones. Looking at the demo
you can see how the design had been implemented and if you are not
happy you will tell us what modifications or changes you would like us
to make. On receipt of each demo you can check the development time and
the contents of the demo and see if it matches the agreed project
schedule. If you are happy with it, then obviously the project is on
track. You can send us your comments and point out what changes should
be made, thus giving the feedback on the project. The final product is
just the final version of what you have seen before. We have done this
before with our clients and we know that it works, provided that both
parties concentrate on the project development and good communications.
