What is the BLADE development model?

BLADE (BluePrint AI-Driven Environment) is a new generation development model that integrates TerraSky's long-cultivated expertise with AI, ensuring consistency from business requirements to implementation, aiming for quality improvement and eliminating rework.

What is the I-type process?

The I-type process breaks away from the traditional V-model, agreeing on acceptance criteria based on user stories at the requirements definition stage, and using AI for implementation. This approach prevents rework by clarifying the definition of completion early on.

How does BLADE utilize AI?

BLADE uses AI not just as a code generation tool, but as a 'virtual architect' that rigorously validates design consistency through prompts that encapsulate best practices for Salesforce implementation.

How is traceability ensured?

Traceability is ensured by systematically linking and managing business objectives (user stories), design and implementation functions, and test cases within the system, preventing black-boxing and enabling accurate impact assessment during operations and modifications.

What is the goal of implementing BLADE?

The goal of implementing BLADE is not just early delivery, but to provide a 'high-quality system' that maximizes the customer's business outcomes with reproducibility.

Launch of AI-Driven Development Model 'BLADE'

TerraSky announced the launch of its AI-driven development model 'BLADE' in May 2026. This new-generation model links business requirements to implementation through traceability, aiming for higher quality and zero rework in Salesforce development.

TerraSky (Headquartered in Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Shunya Sato) officially launched its AI-driven development model, 'BLADE' (BluePrint AI-Driven Environment), in May 2026. BLADE is a next-generation development model that integrates AI with the expertise TerraSky has cultivated over many years. This model aims to improve quality and eliminate rework by ensuring a high degree of traceability across business goals, requirements, testing, and implementation.

[Approach to High-Quality Salesforce Development]

To effectively function as an execution engine, BLADE implements three main approaches into the development process:

1. Reverse Design from Business Objectives (AI-based 'I-type' Process) BLADE clarifies business goals first to define necessary features. It departs from the traditional 'V-model' where things are built then tested, adopting an 'I-type' process where acceptance criteria (test cases) based on user stories are agreed upon at the requirement phase, which AI then uses for implementation.

2. AI Governance via 'Prompt Library' (Leveraging 8,000+ Projects of Know-how) Rather than just a code generator, AI serves as a 'virtual architect' that rigorously verifies design consistency. TerraSky's vast Salesforce deployment expertise and best practices are systematized into prompts and applied throughout the project lifecycle.

3. Full Traceability A structure is established where business goals (user stories) defined in the requirement phase are consistently linked to design, implemented features, and test cases. This prevents system black-boxing, allowing instant tracking of the business background behind any item or program.

TerraSky is evolving the engineer's role from 'implementation capability' to 'business design capability.'
