multidisciplinary teams
Successful design and development projects require expertise in many different disciplines. Often, large teams are created with many different people who are each experts in their own discipline.
On these teams, each person is responsible for his or her "piece of the pie" and work gets handed "over the wall" to the next team member when a different discipline needs to be applied to the problem. Cross-discipline problems and issues are typically resolved in excruciatingly long, mind-numbing meetings. We don't do things that way.
A Multi-Disciplinary Approach to Design
Inovdesigns believes that a multi-disciplinary approach to design is a crucial component for success, but we hate unnecessary meetings. That's why our team members themselves are multi-disciplinary experts in Engineering, Art, and Psychology.
By having expertise in many different fields, our people are able to integrate many different disciplines into producing a solution much more quickly and effectively than we could by employing the more traditional "over the wall" approach discussed above.
By hiring people with multi-disciplary backgrounds and by creating integrated, multi-disciplinary teams, we've found that we can avoid a lot of the problems that plague many development teams - problems that traditionally require excessive amounts of communication and documentation to to solve.
