Our Expertise

Established in 1998, DWS spent more than 20 years focusing on the Oracle JD Edwards OneWorld/ EnterpriseOne and Oracle Cloud Applications product suite. Since becoming part of the AGEST Group, we have expanded our development and testing expertise to include a wide range of enterprise software applications.

We remain an Oracle Partner and a JD Edwards Certified Specialist, and have built an enviable reputation as a true consulting expert in JD Edwards development.

In addition to our range of development, upgrade and support services, we have developed a suite of functional test planning and automation products, with application-aware variants available for Oracle Cloud Applications, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and Salesforce.

A Global Business

DWS operates internationally; with facilities in Europe, North America, South Africa and Australasia. We also work with a global network of trusted partners whose skills and services are used to supplement, or complement, our own.

We specialize in off-site development. This allows us to share best practice and experience with customers, causes less disruption and saves both time and money. From the beginning, we established an agile infrastructure that enables a remote development model in support of our customers’ evolving demands.

This flexible, scalable approach has been proven over time. Combined with our methodical approach, and our commitment to quality, it has enabled us to manage and deliver a broad range of international development projects for clients across the world.
