What our clients think
How it works
We support clients across the US, the UK, Europe, and the Middle East in improving their SDLC processes.
Current SDLC assessment
We begin with a comprehensive analysis (AS-IS) of your current engineering practices, tools, and team structure. This includes evaluating your methodologies (such as Agile or DevOps), workflows, and collaboration mechanisms.
Future-state strategy & roadmap
Based on the AS-IS analysis, we work with your teams to design a custom roadmap for improvement. Whether it's introducing new methodologies, refining processes, or fostering a more collaborative engineering culture, we create a strategic plan (TO-BE).
Implementation & continuous improvement
With a clear strategy in hand, we support you in implementing the changes needed to transform your SDLC processes. Our experts provide hands-on guidance to ensure a seamless transition to more efficient workflows, tools, and processes.

FAQs: Software & SDLC process improvement
What type of process improvement consulting services does Zartis offer?
We have designed or optimised processes across companies of all sizes and various industries. We understand the different considerations that go into working with a smaller team vs multiple teams of hundreds of engineers.
Additionally, our software experts have worked across many different industries including fintech, logistics and fulfillment, edtech, medtech, renewable energy, e-commerce, automotive, travel, and media technology. We understand the different demands of different sectors, including those highly regulated, and we design tailored processes to support each client’s specific needs.
What does the usual consulting process look like?
Our consultants arrange a series of in-depth meetings with all relevant stakeholders to understand the challenges you are trying to solve. From there, we start an analysis of AS-IS in order to assess the current processes and TO-BE – an SPI blueprint in incremental steps outlining a plan of how to get to where you want to be. Throughout this process improvement consulting journey, our teams collaborate with your teams through daily and weekly meetings to ensure success and perfect alignment on designated goals.
Which pricing model is the outsourcing partnership based on?
We work on a time and materials model with daily rates. You only pay for the days the dedicated software engineers work, while we take care of holidays and eventualities such as sick or parental leave.
Which locations is Zartis currently offering consulting services from?
Our software experts are based across EMEA and LATAM. While we have offices in Ireland, Spain, and Poland, we are a remote-first company and most of the Zartis engineers are working remotely from European and North American time zones.
How long does a consulting project usually take?
Depending on your particular needs, it can be short-term for a limited amount of time or longer term and ongoing. Whether you need insights on a specific challenge at hand, or need ongoing support to implement systematic changes – our team will work with you on understanding your goals and requirements, and advising on a timeline suited to your needs.
