About US
Like many important concepts, Source(N) doesn’t have a hard boundary, but rather, a gravitational core. You may call us an “AGILE” WEB 2.0 pioneering company but we prefer the term “FLUID”.
You can visualize us as a set of principles and practices that tie together a veritable solar system of ideas, people, communities and software that demonstrate simplicity, usability and innovation at varying distances from the core of using the WEB as a platform for delivering software as a service [SaaS].
Our approach to software has none of the traditional trappings of the old software industry:
- No scheduled software releases, just continuous improvement.
- No licensing or sale, just usage.
- No porting to different platforms so that customers can run the software on their own equipment.
Instead its just a massively scalable collection of commodity PCs running open source operating systems plus homegrown applications and utilities that no one outside the company ever gets to see.
We pay equal significance to data and tools because we believe that; without the data, the tools are useless; without the software, the data is unmanageable.
In fact, the value of the software we create is proportional to the scale and dynamism of the data it helps manage.
Mission
We provide for and contribute back to our communities with our immense knowledge capital, cutting edge tools and thought leadership.
We believe that the services we provide our communities and the world at large should inculcate values that demonstrate simplicity, usability and innovation at varying distance from that core of using the WEB as a platform for delivering software as a service [SAAS].

Advantage Source(N)
Research indicates that 80% of all software projects never make it through the full product development process. These failed projects either do not achieve business objectives or run far over budget and schedule.
The 20% of projects that succeed share common characteristics that can be documented and reproduced. These successes contain four common traits:
* Each project has smaller teams.
* Risks are actively mitigated throughout the development process.
* Analysis and design are actively incorporated into the beginning of the project schedule.
* Agile and Iterative development approaches are utilized.
Source(N) recognizes that improving the product development process, which includes decreasing the development cycle and eliminating duplication and misunderstanding and improving team work, as a key strategic objective.
Improving the product development processes allows us to respond quickly to customer needs, effectively incorporate new technologies, and improve product functionality, quality and costs. A continuing streaming and tune-up of our current processes helps us ensure that we deliver successful software projects. Improving productivity begins with having a stable, predictable and measurable process.
