We understand our role.
Our people know business. We want to learn how you conduct yours. We like to listen. We realize that what you really need is for a small, well-disciplined team of experts to help you maximize your return on investment in technologies.
We are experienced.
The founders of the AltaStrada Group are veterans of numerous client engagements large and small. We excel on high-pressure projects, those that involve tight deadlines, intricate requirements and complex architectures. And we have no B team. You are the immediate beneficiary of our collective expertise.
We are lean.
Our cost structure is minimal. AltaStrada is the alternative to fancy boutiques and large consultancies. Our focus is the customer. Everything we do is designed to make it possible for us to offer you world-class project teams at attractive rates.
We are fast and conscientious.
The particular makeup of our team allows us to get our bearings quickly. We ask hard questions. We identify key dependencies. We give your project shape and forward momentum.
We connect people on your team.
People in marketing don’t necessarily see the world in the same way as developers in IT. Nor should they. We understand these different worlds. We translate, we unify, helping your people share expectations and focus on common objectives.

We grasp the whole problem.
Our team’s combined skills make it possible for us to see how business processes, the organization of information, the user experience and the logic of an application are interrelated. This makes us adept at spotting hidden and distant implications before they become a risk to your project.
We don't give you unwanted surprises.
We do more than write down what you want in a Web application. We build a series of interactive models of it in HTML. Our HTML prototypes let you see exactly what is being proposed and how it will work on the page. So, rather than burying your requirements in documents that no one reads, we put them in visual forms that are accessible and readily understandable. That way you can quickly make plain to other people in the company (your boss, for example) how a project is progressing.
We focus on your users.
For us, satisfying users is key. We employ HTML prototypes as a fast and affordable way to let you and your team experiment with and test the best ways to optimize usability before a single line of code is written.
We build solutions of lasting value.
Our analysis is rigorous, our prototyping thoughtful and expertly crafted. In the case of our application engineering, the code we produce is elegant, built to standards, based upon design patterns and thoroughly tested. It is written in such a way that your developers can rapidly understand the logic behind it – so that any solution we create can be properly maintained, extended and scaled.
