Flat Organizational Structure
To reduce management complexity, Nova adopts a flat organizational structure, conducting work on a project basis.

Mature Project Management System
Nova has a comprehensive project management system that covers overall management, scope, quality, time, cost, risk, communication, procurement, human resources, and stakeholders, ensuring the smooth progress of projects in all aspects.

Project Management Office (PMO)
In order to improve overall management level and coordinate resources better to serve customers, Nova has established a dedicated Project Management Office (PMO).
PMO assists and checks various stages of project initiation, planning, execution, monitoring, and closure, promptly identifying and addressing issues.

Establishment of Quality Circle, Emphasizing QA (Prevention over Correction)
Nova attaches great importance to quality because we firmly believe that even if deliverables are submitted on time or ahead of schedule, if the quality is compromised, it cannot be considered timely submission.
During project execution, the quality circle evaluates the project quality every week, categorizing it as green star, yellow star, orange star, or red star. If the quality is at a poor level, the issues must be addressed before proceeding further to prevent deviation from the original goal.
For example, software development is similar to a production line. If problems are discovered and corrected at the end of the line, it's already too late. Our QA is responsible for inspecting the production line to ensure its normal operation and nip problems in the bud.

Continuous Improvement & Experience Accumulation
During more than a decade of operation, Nova has accumulated rich technical, management, and industry experience, constantly summarizing these experiences into the company's knowledge base. This has become a valuable asset for the company and a solid foundation for the smooth progress of new projects.
We firmly believe in making progress every day, accumulating incremental improvements, and implementing this philosophy in weekly reports and meetings to ensure continuous progress.
For example:

1. We require employees to provide personal weekly summaries, identify areas for improvement, and oversee their progress.
2. We require projects to continuously summarize and persist in what they are doing well and make improvements in areas where they are lacking.

Iterative Acceptance and Reduction of Work in Progress
If each task is only partially completed without being accepted before moving on to the next part, then these functions are considered works in progress. Accumulating too many works in progress can lead to serious problems in the end.
During the development process, Nova divides functionality into iterations (smaller submissions). With each submission, there is an improved functionality, allowing the product to approach perfection. This approach ensures that the customer sees the work being done throughout the process, rather than only at the end.

The 5 Whys
When problems arise, if the root cause is not identified, the surface-level problems will continue to recur. The 5 Whys technique involves asking multiple questions to find the fundamental cause and solve the problem.
Here's a life example:

1. Smelling a foul odor in the kitchen, using air freshener can solve it, but what is the root cause?
2. It turns out there was dirty water in a bucket, emptying the dirty water solves the problem, but why was there dirty water?
3. It turns out there was a leaky faucet above the bucket, plugging the faucet stops the leak, but why was the faucet leaking?
   ...
   This step-by-step process helps identify the root cause of the problem.

Internet Thinking, MVP (Minimum Viable Product), Prototyping
In the rapidly changing internet world, if you start by developing a large-scale product, it may no longer be suitable for the market by the time it's completed.
Therefore, Nova suggests clients to consider using MVP, the minimum viable product, to test the market. If the market response is good, the product can be continuously improved.
Prototyping is one form of MVP: instead of implementing specific functionalities, a prototype is created using tools, which quickly materializes the client's ideas and is easily adjustable.
Story:
Client: "I want to develop an internal management system for performance allocation, but I haven't figured out the specific requirements. Can you give me a quote?"
Us: (Not quite sure what the client truly wants) "How about we create a prototype first to visualize your ideas?"
Client: (After3. Theoretical and Practical Accumulation to Help Customers Succeed

For an IT project to succeed, it must deliver the agreed-upon outputs within the specified time frame and according to the agreed-upon standards. Nova's ability to survive in the Internet industry for over a decade and gain the trust of many major clients is due to the company's long-term accumulation of talent, technology, and industry experience.
