The selection of tools and methodologies that we use are the result of our experience in systems and applications implementation in critical environments where high availability and performance is essential to minimize errors and incidents, but where the demands of having a competitive "time to market" are very high.
Agile methodology

Management, planning and monitoring
During project development we use project tracking software (Redmine) to track detailed tasks to coordinate the various team members involved and to make the bug-tracking. To complement the scheduling, we prepare Gantt charts where we present the different deliveries planned, milestones and duration of each phase for our clients.

Alerts and monitoring
In production environments, to ensure maximum operability, we have systems of performance monitoring for the several system components (Munin, cacti) and system alerts and events management (Nagios).
