Mercury Development: Unmatched Mac OS X Expertise
We have been developing custom applications for Mac OS® operating system, professionally, since early 2000. Our experience with operating systems includes Mac programming on all flavors of OS 9 and OS X (including Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard), and Macintosh hardware from G3, G4, G5 to Intel. We are especially good at developing dual-platform custom Mac and Windows applications and porting Windows applications to the Mac platform and back.

Experienced Mac OS X Developers
Mercury Development can provide Mac OS X developers to enhance the skill set of your current IT department. Your in-house team may need an extra boost in resources to make a deadline or they may lack the specific OS X knowledge you need to support OS X Leopard platform or type of functionality. Our staffers come with the knowledge and security of an entire development company. Our Macintosh developers can ask advice from any of our 60 software engineers or project managers so you don't pay to reinvent the wheel. We can help you diversify the risk of employee emergencies or illnesses by making sure knowledge is not lost and a replacement can be supplied from our pool of qualified engineers.

Professional Project Management
We assign a project manager to every outsourcing relationship. The PM guarantees efficient communication and makes sure that knowledge is not lost in the even that resources need to change. Often, our PM's will participate in requirements analysis, software architecture and team supervision and assistance. Each PM has more than 5 years of experience in software analysis, design and development.

Expedient Service
Mercury Development can provide you with a OS X developer or team in significantly less time than you could interview and hire one, yourself. We can react quickly to your changing demands by drawing upon our extensive resources to provide you with additional temporary or permanent developers and QA engineers as the situation dictates.
