Software analysed with brains.




 Brain Cell IT

About our company

I used this presentation to talk for about 20
minutes about our company and what we
do, and this in schools or at universities or
for other acquintainces.
It is not the aim to go in detail about
analysis, but to give a global view.
The semi-transparant sticky notes denote
what is said during the presentation.
I have a background as consultant
developer in Microsoft environments
(.NET, C#, SQL Server) and I
worked for Capgemini at clients as
Exxon, government, Manpower and
others.

Currently I work as a consultant
analyst and I am founder, owner
and manager of my company where
I have all-round tasks (sales, HR,
PR, administration and so on).

I live in Antwerp.
                                        And our company Brain Cell IT is
                                        also headquartered in Antwerp.

This is our
                                                              headquarters.

In 2006 Brain Cell IT started with
consultancy activities. This means
we fulfill our assignments at our
customers. These assignments
consist of analysis tasks for software
projects, mainly functional analysis,
but sometimes also business
analysis based on the experience we
built up.
Our customers are big companies
and multinationals in different
sectors, mainly Banking and payroll
companies.

But first, where do we fit?




As well in the Waterfall model as
in Scrum an analysis period
before development is forseen
(in Scrum possibly in every
sprint).

But actually an analyst works in
every step of a project: (s)he                              Environments in which we often
helps in estimations, interacts                             work are:
                                                            •Microsoft .NET or Java with SQL

                                    EVERYWHERE!
with the business analyst, with
the testers, with the developers                            Server, Oracle or other DBMS
and so on.                                                  •Windows and webapplications

                                                            We try to be technology
                                                            independent but we have to deal
                                                            with technical limitations.

Uh! Analysis?
An analyst is as an architect: an architect
sketches and writes down a blueprint on
behalf of the clients to be build by “Bob the
Builder”.

An analyst studies specific business
requirements of certain processes.

An analyst is a key player in a project.




An analysis is as a contract: it is used to
make agreements between the different
parties, to describe the functionalities, and
to define what is in and out of scope.

An analysis should clearly specify what will
be created and state what won’t be.

The analysis translates the business needs
to something which is understandable and
programmable by developers.

Deliverables




           An analyst must document the system in a
           clear and easy understandable way by
           writing documents and drawing diagrams
           and screen designs.

           We do this with UML and use case
           descriptions.

           A picture is worth a thousand words. For
           this reason, a diagram or a screen sketch
           is a valuable element in business as well as
           in functional analysis.

That’s not all Folks!
                                Which other tasks does the analyst have?
                                Interviewing, doing workshops, prioritizing
                                requirements, informing testers,
                                developers and other interested people
                                (stakeholders), drafting screen designs,
                                performing initial tests,...
                                That is why the analyst is a key player.

                                Tools we mostly use are Sparx Systems
                                Enterprise Architect and Microsoft Visio.

Brain Cell IT - About our company

  • 1. Software analysed with brains. Brain Cell IT About our company I used this presentation to talk for about 20 minutes about our company and what we do, and this in schools or at universities or for other acquintainces. It is not the aim to go in detail about analysis, but to give a global view. The semi-transparant sticky notes denote what is said during the presentation.
  • 2. I have a background as consultant developer in Microsoft environments (.NET, C#, SQL Server) and I worked for Capgemini at clients as Exxon, government, Manpower and others. Currently I work as a consultant analyst and I am founder, owner and manager of my company where I have all-round tasks (sales, HR, PR, administration and so on). 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 2
  • 3. I live in Antwerp. And our company Brain Cell IT is also headquartered in Antwerp. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 3
  • 4. This is our headquarters. In 2006 Brain Cell IT started with consultancy activities. This means we fulfill our assignments at our customers. These assignments consist of analysis tasks for software projects, mainly functional analysis, but sometimes also business analysis based on the experience we built up. Our customers are big companies and multinationals in different sectors, mainly Banking and payroll companies. References: De post (Belgian post), BNP Paribas Fortis, JNJ, SD Worx, Acerta. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 4
  • 5. But first, where do we fit? As well in the Waterfall model as in Scrum an analysis period before development is forseen (in Scrum possibly in every sprint). But actually an analyst works in every step of a project: (s)he Environments in which we often helps in estimations, interacts work are: •Microsoft .NET or Java with SQL EVERYWHERE! with the business analyst, with the testers, with the developers Server, Oracle or other DBMS and so on. •Windows and webapplications We try to be technology independent but we have to deal with technical limitations. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 5
  • 6. Uh! Analysis? An analyst is as an architect: an architect sketches and writes down a blueprint on behalf of the clients to be build by “Bob the Builder”. An analyst studies specific business requirements of certain processes. An analyst is a key player in a project. An analysis is as a contract: it is used to make agreements between the different parties, to describe the functionalities, and to define what is in and out of scope. An analysis should clearly specify what will be created and state what won’t be. The analysis translates the business needs to something which is understandable and programmable by developers. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 6
  • 7. Deliverables An analyst must document the system in a clear and easy understandable way by writing documents and drawing diagrams and screen designs. We do this with UML and use case descriptions. A picture is worth a thousand words. For this reason, a diagram or a screen sketch is a valuable element in business as well as in functional analysis. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 7
  • 8. That’s not all Folks! Which other tasks does the analyst have? Interviewing, doing workshops, prioritizing requirements, informing testers, developers and other interested people (stakeholders), drafting screen designs, performing initial tests,... That is why the analyst is a key player. Tools we mostly use are Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect and Microsoft Visio. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 8
  • 9. Trust Familiarity Ethics Our philosophy Involvement Brain Cell IT believes a humane and ethical manner of working is important for delivering high quality of work. We have a flat organization, we aim for Quality mutual respect, trust, personal contact and personal coaching. We KNOW our collaborators. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 9
  • 10. So far, so good. • Questions? • Remarks? 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 10
  • 11. Up to you now... • Sander Hoogendoorn www.sanderhoogendoorn.com • LinkedIn Groups: – UML – UML Lovers – Use Case Professionals • Just use UML! Sander is recognized in the Netherlands and Belgium for Agile development and UML in the full spectrum. He wrote this book covering all diagrams in UML (also rather technical). It is easy to read and contains many practical examples. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 11
  • 12. If you want to give direction to software, define how programs will work, be the driving factor when creating software at major companies Brain Cell IT is an interesting employer. You have the chance to build up experience at major and important customers and your career can be varying. 12/03/12 Brain Cell IT bvba 12
