Key factors that drive our Quality Movement

• Our aspirations to meet & surpass the expectations of our customer.
• Our urge to continuously improve our performance.
• Focus on process improvement at every stage through quantitative measurement.

The Pillars of Quality Movement

• People the practitioners of Quality & their commitment to turn out good quality products.
• Visible support by Senior Management.
• Dedicated SQA team for objectively verifying the process practices and guide the project teams in implementation.
• Engineering Process Group focusing on systematic induction of new tools / processes / technologies and their continuous improvement.
• Metrics group focusing on analysis of process parameters based on the measurement program & initiating improvements.
• Training group focusing on knowledge & skill needs pro-actively.

Compliance to International Standards

• EmSyS was assessed to be at Software Engineering Institute’s Software CMM® Maturity Level 4. The assessment was carried out by QAI, India in December 2001.
• EmSyS was later assessed to be at Software Engineering Institute’s CMMI® - SE / SW / IPPD / SS, ver 1.1, Maturity Level 5. The assessment was carried out by Software Quality Center (SQC), India in February 2003.
• EmSyS processes are currently benchmarked in line with Software Engineering Institute's CMMI® - DEV + IPPD ver 1.2, Maturity Level 5. The assessment was carried out by Software Quality Center (SQC), India in December 2007.

Key Quality Practices

• Well defined Systems / Processes right from proposal to delivery.
• Quantitative Risk Management.
• PDLC’s to address the needs of all categories of projects.
• Use of tools in Design, Planning and Analysis.
• Reviews at every stage to uncover errors closest to the stage in which they are injected.
• Testing at various levels i.e., at Unit, Integration & System level using Decision Table based approach.
• Periodic measurements & the Causal analysis for continuous improvement.
• Focus on Defect Prevention by taking concrete actions based on Causal analysis.
• Focus on Defect Prediction and Analysis. 
• Formal introduction to processes & systems right from induction to all new joiners.
• Knowledge Management – Capturing learning’s & best practices and utilizing them for improvement.
• Six Sigma for continuous improvement.
