Applications are the primary way users interact with IT. Achievement of business goals, innovations, security and flexibility all arise from the capabilities of the applications in use. Especially now, continuous work on agility, security and innovations is essential for any organization. With PLTFRM's partners, new applications can be created at lightning speed, in traditional code or with a low-code approach. With the current shortage on the labor market, it can also be desirable to outsource the management of existing applications or to ask for help in solving elusive problems and monitoring.

By working with experts in the application field, organizations can achieve digitization faster, more effectively and more securely. PLTFRM helps to determine the strategy, supports in the design process where needed and, together with the partners, manages the success of the chosen solution.

The application services that can be purchased via PLTFRM are:

• Application development: Designing an application in a design sprint, developing new applications as a service, hiring a complete development team or hiring extra help, optionally from students or outside of the Netherlands.
• Application management: Managing applications by an external team or extension of your own teams. PLTFRM's partners manage all types of web applications, integration software and applications such as SAP, Oracle and MSSQL databases. For any type of application, PLTFRM can take the burden off an organization.
• Quality & Testing: In developing and in using an application, quality is vital. If a user is unable to work due to a failed release or incident it causes frustration, increased costs and reduced productivity. Proper testing and monitoring of applications are important services for any organization. PLTFRM's partners are experts in the field of quality assurance and can quickly identify performance bottlenecks.
• Low-code: Building applications takes valuable time. By building new digital functionality within a low-code platform or with pre-built code building blocks, development time can be drastically reduced. PLTFRM and its partners help choose the right type of low-code solution, implement, monitor quality and manage the application.
