Employee Testimonials

Here are some testimonials from our employees,
I chose Optima Resources Inc Technologies for several reasons:
I was looking for a consulting company that was focused on doing more than "staff augmentation".
I wanted a chance to work on quality, state-of-the-art projects concentrated in areas that would allow me to utilize my education, skills, and experience in technology and project management.
The leadership at Optima Resources Inc has years of experience and are well balanced with respect to each individual's area of expertise. They have not tried to enter an industry cold to take advantage of a market opportunity, but have carefully constructed their business model around what they know and have been doing for many years.


With Web Technologies being at the forefront of commerce and business, I believe OR Technologies has fulfilled what I am looking for.
S. Yadav

Optima Resources Inc provided me with the network of prospective employers I needed to make an efficient move from one company to another in a very difficult market. They worked closely with me to provide solid guidance on rate expectations and prepared me well for the assignment. I would recommend their services to anyone who is looking for a hands-on approach to client / consultant relationship management.
P. Prasana

Chose Optima Resources Inc Technologies for two reasons:

Optima Resources Team

Unlike traditional, monolithic outsourcing "factories" with cheap offshore programmers to code to recipe-like specifications, Optima Resources is a software engineering service provider focused on problem solving and producing results.

Our engineering approach relies heavily on years of expertise, which placed a premium on problem solving, rather than on the conveyor approach of churning out coders, as quickly as possible.

Optima Resources has a project-oriented organizational structure. This means that the company management is built around project teams that are the primary cells of the company. This structure has a number of advantages in comparison with a standard department-oriented organizational structure.

The project team is a self-managed team. The project flow is defined by the project implementation procedures and by customer requirements.
The core of a project team consists of the following members:

- Project manager
- Technical Account Manager
- Designer/Architect
- Lead Developer
- Lead QA Engineer
- On-site Staff (Sr. Staff at appropriate stages of the project)

The project team is a complete team that fully supports the project implementation.
