Through deep analysis of the organisational structure and the most important processes and workflows within your business, we deliver insights into the positives and negatives of what’s happening right now. Where can improvements be made? How can you build upon the positives?
Having the right data in the right amount at the right time is critical to make the correct decisions.
Achieving this is not the privilege of the businesses with big research budgets, and we can help to deliver actionable insights at costs that sit well within budget.
We measure, organise and help you make sense of the key data from your business to enable you to make the right decision at the right time. With the information you need about customers, communication, finances, products and more, you can eliminate guesswork and the mistakes that inevitably arise from an uncertain approach to a situation or problem.
As well as reducing mistakes and therefore costs, the primary benefit of “big picture” visibility is being more efficient. And greater efficiency reduces costs. For example, by saving money on administration, IT, stock management or training costs, you can invest in the right areas of your business.
By becoming more efficient, employees can be trained more effectively, deliver services quicker, and handle issues better with more consistency. The end result is an increase in customer satisfaction and loyalty.
The quicker you fix problems, improve processes and become fully efficient as a business, the less time you need to spend focusing on anything except achieving your primary goals.
Everyone has a vision and specific goals they want to achieve when launching a business. Whether it’s building products, specific financial targets or spending more time with family, we can help you identify and eradicate the things getting in the way of achieving these goals.
Communication, understanding, timing and teamwork
are essentials for success.
I’ll help you find the real focus of your project; the main objective you’re trying to achieve. The next step is to write a detailed and accurate Request for Proposal (RFP) in the language software providers can easily understand and interpret.
The end result is crystal-clear predicted outcome that everyone can work towards.
I often work with clients who do not have software expertise but understand the importance of customised, efficient software solutions in today’s increasingly competitive world. With both software and business experience in equal measure, I speak the language of both sides fluently, giving projects clarity for all concerned and avoiding expensive miscommunication problems in the process.
Good communication motivates and involves everyone in a software project; they know what they should be doing, why they should be doing it, when it’s needed and how they are going to benefit.
So agreeing and communicating a realistic budget and achievable timing plan is a critical step that, if done right, will help avoid any dreaded scope creep on your project. Some say it’s inevitable. I say it’s avoidable.
Your project can be an opportunity to assess and improve staff training and working practises. A well-run project develops teamwork and creates a better, more efficient working environment.
In the long-term, this leads to a better business. Successful projects motivate staff, focus management and give customers even more reason to make you their first choice!
Who wouldn’t love to be involved in a project where everyone knows exactly what to do and how to do it? Where any issues (however small) are addressed quickly and effectively? Let’s make it happen!
A successful project delivered on time and on budget benefits you, your team, your business. So what next?
