Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of outsourcing the iSeries software development project may vary significantly depending on several factors, such as the size and complexity of the project, the scope of work involved, the expertise and experience of the development team, and the size and geographic location of the development team. On average, outsourcing iSeries software development can range from a few thousand dollars to several hundred thousand dollars. Therefore, it’s strongly recommended to discuss project requirements thoroughly with potential outsourcing partners since this will help you receive ballpark estimates.

Indeed! There are many RPG software development companies out there that offer dedicated maintenance and support as part of their service offerings. Post-development support typically includes troubleshooting, bug fixing, and performance enhancements to ensure the smooth functioning of AS400 RPG applications. When choosing an outsourcing partner, it’s wise to inquire about their post-development support and ensure it aligns with the project's requirements and long-term needs.

Definitely! You can hire iSeries developers to augment your in-house RPG software development team. Augmenting your in-house team with external talent can bring several benefits, such as accelerating development timelines, tackling larger and more complex projects, and addressing skill gaps without the need for extensive training or onboarding. Furthermore, hiring offshore iSeries developers can provide best practices and valuable insights pertaining to RPG software development, which in turn, improves the overall quality and efficiency of the project.

The duration for delivering an RPG software development project can vary significantly depending on several factors, such as the scope and complexity of the project, the size and expertise of the development team, and other project-specific requirements. Small projects, such as minor enhancements, may take around a couple of weeks, whereas large and complex projects that require custom RPG application development from scratch may take from six months to a year or more.

We can definitely help you find AS400 RPG programmers for your project. Finding these developers is challenging since this technology is quite specialized. Many experienced programmers who know RPG are getting older and retiring. However, there are still skilled developers available. You should look for people with hands-on experience in RPG programming for AS400, database management on these systems, and an understanding of business applications. Consider reaching out to specialized IT staffing companies, professional networks, or IBM partner organizations. You might also want to consider remote developers since local talent might be limited in your area.
