If you aren't already doing it, try making your specs human and machine-readable, using a tool like Cucumber. This is a process-oriented improvement (not a technological one.) The $ benefits come from decreased status-checking overhead and transparency in the functioning of the code base. Similarly, invest in testing technologies for the front-end. Many web-app shops only focus on testing the back-end, but as front-end logic becomes more complex, the advantages of testing become more fortuitous.
