So your company needs a Windows device driver.  It can be a scary undertaking.  Windows drivers are their own territory, with different terms and rules.  Even if your company has previously developed a Windows driver, it can be daunting.   You might not have been happy with the last driver, or this new effort does not resemble the old driver.

Maybe you should consider approach to an unknown territory that has been used over the ages: hire a guide.  We provide a range of services like any good guide, from giving suggestions to working with you every step of the way.  Some common examples of work we do are:

  • Refine you product requirements – Depending on what you are doing, you may not need a device driver, or you may need a very small driver.  Having an expert take a look early can reduce the overall costs of the product.  Also, by having good requirements you can ask for a fixed price bid, giving you better control of your costs.

  • Identify best practices for your effort – In any complex environment such as Windows Driver Development, there are many capabilities.  Identifying features that will ease your development, debugging and long-term support will reduce the overall expense of the driver.

  • Qualify development resources – You do not know the territory, so it is hard to know if the resume or contractor’s proposal is right for you.  We can not only review your resources, but also help identify potential candidates for the work.  An expert helping screen the resumes or proposals can save you time and money.

  • Advise during the development – During development, questions will arise, some of which can have big impact on the overall viability of the project.  Querying an expert here can help guarantee the project’s viability and improve time to market.

  • Review the results – The project is finishing up; did you developers or contractors do a good job?  A professional code review can suggest improvements needed before your customers find the problems
