CrossUSA provides
your business with an experienced, dedicated, and hard working team of
Information Technology Professionals who deliver high quality and cost
effective services to meet your Information Technology needs.
IT and business
application software touches every aspect of business today, enabling
companies around the world to continually offer more products,
services and increased value. As such, these application systems are
ever more present within companies, consume a larger portion of
company resources, cost more to develop and maintain, and have a much
higher strategic importance than just a few years ago. The CrossUSA
core business is to provide software development and support to these
applications, at lower costs, while adding value and offering a
stable, low-risk, reliable long-term service. The CrossUSA model
enables American companies to implement and utilize IT application
software much more efficiently and cost effectively.
Strengths
-
Unique and valuable competitive discriminator:
No one offers what CrossUSA does.
CrossUSA offers off-site IT Business Application software
development and support from Rural Software Development Centers.
This distinction enables CrossUSA to offer higher value application
development and support at lower costs than competitors, without
increased risks and decreased security of taking the work outside
the USA.
-
Highly motivated and qualified workforce:
CrossUSA offers employees the
opportunity to be fully engaged in the profession of IT software
development, while reaping the many lifestyle benefits found in
Rural America. This bond creates remarkable ownership and loyalty in
staff members and directly translates to a real and tangible desire
to develop and maintain long-term, mutually beneficial relationships
with CrossUSA clients. Over time, CrossUSA staff members become as
proficient in understanding the client's business needs as the
client's own staff. The quality of life enjoyed by CrossUSA staff
members living in Rural America results in very low turnover, which
means knowledge obtained by CrossUSA staff about the client's
application is retained.
-
Lower IT application software development and maintenance costs:
The cost of operation is lower
because CrossUSA development and support centers are located in
Rural America. These lower operating costs enable CrossUSA to offer
development and support services at lower rates than its domestic
competition, and far less than the costs of the client's own staff.
These lower rates translate into a direct savings in IT application
software development and support costs for the entire remaining life
of the application.
-
Higher Security and Lowered Support Risk:
CrossUSA offers clients a stable,
low-risk support option with the use of American citizens in
locations outside of metropolitan areas. In light of recent
developments overseas, and the increased threat to large
concentrations of people, companies are re-evaluating the use of
offshore development staff. In addition, they are also re-evaluating
the location and costs of protecting their valuable IT applications
and operations, most often located within large cities in America.
Many firms recognizing the inherent risks in having overseas
operations, and large concentrations of IT staff in a single
location, are addressing this issue. Using CrossUSA development
staff located in Rural America directly addresses and mitigates both
of these issues.
-
Structured and Disciplined Software Development and Support:
In every RDC location, CrossUSA
operates a process driven, structured software development process.
Team-based development efforts, in conjunction with the development
process, yields high quality, value added and cost effective
software products and solutions. In addition, CrossUSA processes
enable each of its staff members to continually benchmark, evaluate,
and improve upon the quality and efficiency of their work, thereby
continually increasing the value of support to clients.
Technology
CrossUSA has successfully leveraged communication and high-speed
bandwidth to enable a remote workforce equivalent access and
capabilities with on-site employees. Innovative use of IT technologies
has enabled CrossUSA to provide a virtual workforce equally capable of
performing real-time application support and maintenance. In addition,
the CrossUSA business and development model enables leverage of the
technology investments made by clients, in software development tools
and hardware, without a significant investment or dependence on behalf
of CrossUSA. This approach enables CrossUSA to maintain low costs,
while also utilizing the same technology the clients use.
CrossUSA is
continually making infrastructure investments in the latest security
and firewall technology to protect the sensitive data of clients and
maintain the highest security of clients' IT application-processing
needs.
