Kennedy Carter believe the goal of consulting is to enable you to achieve the required level of self-sufficiency in the most cost-effective way. A comprehensive quality process exists to ensure that you receive the highest level of professional consulting.



Who are our Consultants?

Kennedy Carter's consultants have specific experience in:

  • MDA-based System Development
  • Project Management and Planning
  • Requirements Management and Traceability
  • Quality Planning
  • Object Model Construction and Simulation
  • Software Design and Architecture Development
  • Code Generator Development
All our consultants are:

  • Skilled Communicators
  • Able to work effectively with the project team to transfer their expertise
  • Actively involved in the development of MDA and xUML
  • Fully conversant with the latest advances in the method and tool support

Through their experience our consultants have a thorough understanding of the realities of project development and so understand the need to make "intelligent compromises".



When should you use our Consultants?

The adoption of any new method involves the risk that the project will not have the right skills available at the right time. It is important to manage this risk by putting in place a coherent, cost-effective schedule of consulting support. This should be based upon a combination of:

  • Early Stage Support
    To ensure a strong start while the team climbs the learning curve at the start of each project phase, and to be on hand to deal with specific issues as they arise


  • On Call Support
    To provide advice on specific issues as the project progresses


  • Specific Assistance
    To help in the development of specific project deliverables


  • Quality Monitoring
    To raise confidence that the project team is delivering models that are fit for the purpose


Return on Investment

Over time, within an organisation, in house expertise will be developed, leading to decreasing amounts of external training and consulting being required.

The scope for re-use will increase due to:

  • Availability of in-house developed application, service and architecture domains from previous projects


  • Availability of generic service domains and architectures from third party vendors
