What it's like to work with our services team

Don't take our word for it. Here's how IT leaders and executives describe working with our consultants:

How we work

Personal service you won't find at other development shops

We want our services team to feel like an extension of your business. Here's what that looks like on a real project:

Most dev shops

  • Specs pass through project managers, to developers you never meet
  • A new team on every project
  • Questions go into a ticket queue
  • Whoever's available, wherever they are

Working with mrc

  • You work directly with the consultants building your application
  • The same team, project after project
  • You call or email the person building your applications
  • US and UK-based consultants with 10+ years at mrc
Why we're fast

Our consultants build with m-Power

Most development shops write every application from scratch. Our consultants build with the m-Power Development Platform, the same software our customers use. m-Power generates the repetitive foundation every business application needs, so our team spends their hours on the parts unique to your business: your logic, your workflow, your interface.

That's how we deliver projects 50-80% faster than traditional custom development, and why our quotes tend to surprise people who have priced this work elsewhere.

The foundation is generated

Data access, security, and screens are produced by the platform, not hand-coded from a blank editor.

No lock-in

Built with m-Power. Not dependent on it.

A fair question we hear from IT leaders: if you build our application with your platform, are we stuck with your platform? No. m-Power generates applications on the same standard technologies your team already uses, and they run entirely on their own.

Standard technologies, front to back

Open the code behind an application we deliver and you'll find the stack your developers already know:

  • Java on the server
  • HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in the browser
  • SQL against the databases you already run
  • Deployed to a standard web server, on-premise or in your cloud

See the full technology stack

Applications created by our consultants are free-standing, and do not require m-Power for maintenance or enhancements. Straight from our FAQ, and true of every project we deliver

Any developer can maintain it

The generated code is standard and human-readable. Developers familiar with Java, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript can enhance and maintain the applications, whether they work for us, for you, or for someone else entirely.

No m-Power license is required to run, change, or extend what we deliver.

You own everything

The application and its code are yours, deployed in your environment. There are no recurring project fees, and nothing stops working if you never call us again.

A perfect fit for your environment

Applications plug into your existing systems and authentication, including single sign-on, and run under the security model you already enforce. Your data stays in your databases the whole time.

Tell us about your project

mrc's service is fantastic. I've never known a company this efficient. It is the complete opposite of every other company we've dealt with.

Paul Scyner, IT Manager, Daiwa Sports

mrc is a great company to work with! They are customer centric and interested in seeing their customer's projects flow smoothly.

Jon Cantrell, Boise Paper Holdings LLC

They have a knack of understanding the business. Once you understand the business, then you can open up the creative juices to find a technical solution. That's their niche.

Keith Fisher, mrc services client

The other path

Rather build it yourself?

Everything we deliver is built with m-Power, and your team can use the same platform. Build it yourself with our team behind you, have us deliver a finished project, or start on your own and bring us in when you need extra hands. You can switch anytime, and some clients have us deliver the first project while their team learns to build the rest.

One platform, two ways to use it

Your team builds with m-Power, our team builds for you, or both at once. Same platform, same code, same company behind it.

How can you deliver projects 50-80% faster than other development shops?

Our consultants build with m-Power, the development platform we created. It generates the repetitive code that consumes most of a traditional project, so our team spends their time on your business logic, workflow, and interface. Less hand-coding means faster delivery and lower cost.

No. m-Power generates standard, human-readable code: Java on the server, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in the browser, SQL against your database. Applications run on their own and don't need m-Power for maintenance or enhancements. Any developer familiar with those technologies can maintain them.

No. We deliver a finished application that runs in your environment, no platform purchase required. Some clients do add m-Power later so their own team can build new applications the same way, but that's an option, not a requirement.

You do. The application and its code are yours, deployed in your environment, on-premise or in your cloud. There are no recurring project fees and nothing stops working if you never call us again. Most clients do call us again: 96% of first-time clients come back.

We specialize in data-driven, web-based business applications: reporting, portals, dashboards, CRM systems, database front ends, workflow, and AI tools built over your data. If your project falls in that category, we can almost certainly handle it. If you're not sure, ask us.

Experienced mrc consultants based in the US and UK, with at least five years of development experience at mrc. You work directly with the people building your application from planning through delivery, not through layers of project managers.
