Republic Systems provides companies and government agencies the best of breed in open innovation and crowdsourcing for systems development. Utilizing mature open source software and online technical communities, Republic builds advanced SaaS applications. The benefits of this approach are many, including immediate access to diverse technical talent that delivers working software at a fraction of traditional costs without annual license and maintenance fees. Republic Systems removes the difficulty of finding the right skills and talent for the right software project at the right time. Millions of technical specialists (architects, UI designers, developers, testers, algorithmists and data scientists) are accessible immediately through the growing community of crowdsourcing platforms. Our program managers are experts at identifying the appropriate platform for a given task/project. These platforms are most effective at delivering new custom handheld/tablet apps, modernizing older enterprise applications and optimizing algorithms for large data sets. By utilizing prizes, bounties, recognition and other incentives as the reward for superior quality software, Republic is free from traditional headcount and hours-based development models. No longer do business units need to feel "held hostage" by their technology groups.
