A structured, quality-driven engagement, every single time.
Five repeatable steps, applied to every academic and technology workstream we deliver. Predictable for your team. Accountable on our side.
Each step ships documented, reviewable artefacts.
These are not status-meeting headings. Every step has a defined entry condition, deliverables that leave the engagement, and an exit decision your steering committee can sign off against.
Step 1
Requirement Analysis
We begin by understanding your institution's academic vision, operational gaps and student outcomes. A detailed requirement document anchors every decision that follows.
Deliverables
- Discovery interviews with academic, IT and admissions leadership
- Current-state map of programmes, systems and student journeys
- Signed-off requirement document with success criteria
Step 2
Planning & Strategy
A structured roadmap with milestones, dependencies and ownership, covering academic, technology and compliance workstreams in parallel.
Deliverables
- Workstream plan covering academics, technology and compliance
- Milestone calendar with dependencies and decision points
- RACI for every deliverable, including your team's responsibilities
Step 3
Development & Implementation
Configurable modules deployed in iterative cycles. Curriculum, content, LMS, CRM, ERP and assessment come together with full visibility for your team.
Deliverables
- Configured platforms in a staging environment for review
- Iterative content production with subject-matter checkpoints
- Weekly progress demos and burndown against the plan
Step 4
Quality Assurance
Rigorous testing, peer-review of academic deliverables and security validation before anything reaches a student or faculty member.
Deliverables
- Functional, performance and security test reports
- Peer-reviewed content with plagiarism and accuracy sign-off
- User-acceptance walkthroughs with your academic team
Step 5
Delivery & Support
Go-live with hands-on training, documented runbooks and an ongoing support partnership measured by your student-success outcomes.
Deliverables
- Faculty and staff training, with role-based runbooks
- Defined support SLAs covering platform and academic operations
- Quarterly outcome reviews against the success criteria
The four go/no-go gates that protect delivery.
Steps do not start because a calendar said so. Each one starts after a documented sign-off against a clear definition of done for the previous step.
Step 1 → 2
Sign-off on the requirement document and success criteria. Without it, no planning starts.
Step 2 → 3
Sign-off on the workstream plan, milestone calendar and RACI. Resources are committed against this plan.
Step 3 → 4
Build complete, ready for QA. Demo against the user-acceptance criteria before any QA gate is opened.
Step 4 → 5
QA passed across functional, performance, security and academic peer-review. Go/no-go decision documented.
Predictable rhythm, no surprises.
Every engagement runs the same governance cadence. Your team knows when updates land, when decisions are needed and when the next outcome review will compare the build to the brief.
Discuss this with the Yatharth team →Weekly progress notes
A short written update every Friday covering completed work, in-flight items and risks, with links to the artefacts produced.
Monthly steering reviews
A working review with academic, IT and operations leadership against the milestone calendar and success criteria.
Quarterly outcome reviews
A structured review against the success criteria signed off in Step 1, with course corrections where the data supports them.
One delivery lead. Clear RACI on every deliverable.
You should never have to triangulate between vendors, and your team should know exactly what is on Yatharth's plate versus the institution's at every step.
Yatharth owns
- Day-to-day delivery across academic, technology and operations workstreams.
- Quality assurance, peer review and plagiarism reporting on every deliverable.
- Documentation and audit-ready artefacts for accreditation and UGC-DEB review.
Institution owns
- Academic direction, programme outcomes and final faculty sign-off on content.
- Regulatory representation and signatures on UGC-DEB submissions.
- Steering decisions, resource commitments and go/no-go calls at every gate.
Shared
- Risk identification and escalation, with weekly visibility for both sides.
- User-acceptance review with academic, IT and operations representatives.
- Outcome reviews against the success criteria locked in Step 1.
Delivery commitments, not aspirations.
These four commitments are the minimum bar for every Yatharth engagement. They are how the five-step approach stays trustworthy at scale.
Two working days to a structured response
Every serious enquiry receives a written, structured plan with scope, milestones and indicative commercials within two working days.
Documented QA on every deliverable
Academic content goes through subject-matter peer review and plagiarism checking. Platforms go through functional, performance and security testing.
Single point of accountability
One engagement lead owns delivery across academic, technology and operational workstreams. You never have to triangulate between vendors.
Predictable communication cadence
Weekly progress notes, monthly steering reviews and quarterly outcome reviews, with the same artefacts every time.
