Engineering Outcome Certainty

Symphony Services has changed the rules of outsourced software product engineering. We bring certainty and success to your software engineering initiatives – guaranteed.

What Does Outcome Certainty Mean?

Outcome Certainty is about getting the results you require to meet your business goals. It’s about achieving goals, driving innovation and bringing predictability to costs, schedules and quality of the outsourced software product engineering process. Traditional outsourcing revolved around contracting for inputs (resources, rates), but were abstracted from results. Outcome certainty puts the focus back where it belongs – on getting the work done.



Symphony Services ensures that leading technology companies maximize the ROI from their engineering organizations and deliver market-leading products to drive their success.
