Akron Launches 'DEVON' Framework to Enhance IT Outsourcing Transparency

Achron Declares Innovation in IT Outsourcing Market with Official Launch of AI-Based Framework 'DEVON' Achron, a specialized developer in Artificial Intelligence Transformation (AX), has officially launched its self-developed innovative framework, 'DEVON,' presenting a new paradigm to the IT outsourcing market. DEVON is an unprecedented solution combining an advanced development framework with an intelligent AI automatic quotation system. Achron has declared an ambitious aspiration to break down the opaque cost structures that have dominated the IT outsourcing market and significantly lower the barriers to digital transformation (DX) for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). **'Module-Specific Cost Calculation' System Eliminates Chronic Opacity** DEVON's most powerful weapon is its overwhelming transparency through the 'module-specific cost calculation system.' This system clearly defines each function required for a project in subdivided module units, calculates precise costs accordingly, and provides them as a quotation. This embodies Achron's determination to put an end to unfair practices prevalent in the existing IT outsourcing market, such as 'demanding excessive additional costs after low-bid contracts.' As a result, even small businesses or startup founders with limited development knowledge can ascertain a clear budget before commencing a project, effectively managing the risk of uncertain cost overruns. DEVON resolves information asymmetry, fostering a rational and predictable development environment. **Maximizing Development Efficiency and Enhancing Quality Through AI-Based Automation** Beyond mere cost transparency, DEVON innovatively enhances the efficiency of the development process. The AI automatic quotation system automatically generates the initial project setup, including backend APIs, frontend screens, and necessary infrastructure configurations, based on the calculated quotation. This automated initial setup feature helps developers concentrate their efforts on implementing the core business logic of the project, rather than being bogged down by repetitive and time-consuming initial tasks. Consequently, it shortens the overall project duration and brings about the positive effect of improving the quality of the final deliverable. Furthermore, by adopting a flexible modular feature expansion structure, it is designed to maintain consistent and high development quality regardless of project size or complexity. Son Jae-hyuk, CEO of Achron, stated, "We have concentrated years of experience and know-how gained through numerous SI projects into DEVON." He added, "Through this solution, we aim to establish a rational and transparent IT outsourcing development culture and actively support more SMEs in leveraging the benefits of digital transformation." Achron announced its intention to release the DEVON development framework as open-source in the future, demonstrating its commitment to contributing to the overall development of the IT ecosystem. DEVON is expected to become an innovative beacon that solves long-standing challenges in the IT outsourcing market and illuminates the DX journey for SMEs.
