Our consulting services are as follows:

Programme Management
It has been established that more than 70% of IT programmes either struggle or
fail to deliver the business value. We believe that failure is not caused due to
a particular reason or a particular person. It is caused due to series of events
that take place leading to programme failure.
We invest our time to understand our clients' business vision, environment and
business dynamics. We are customer focussed and help our clients to articulate
their strategy ensuring that their business operates from a common standpoint.
We demonstrate diligence in commercial management complimented by sound
stakeholder management.
We use industry standards and proven practices to manage the programmes and
ensure that we apply only of those best practices that are suitable and fit our
clients’ purposes.

Technology Management
Industry has recognised that the initial IT hardware and software investments
are significantly lower compared to the overall cost of ownership.
Windows or Linux, Java or .NET, Microsoft or Sun, Open-source or Properitory -
the debate of which to choose is ongoing.
Most often, due to improper or inaccurate infrastructure planning, most
organisations are compelled to buy new hardware and end up with a selection of
unrelated and disconnected systems.
With a continuous need for service expansion, it is therefore important to plan
for a technology roadmap to ensure that your IT systems are able to keep pace
with your business grows.
We have the experience to understand your existing technology infrastructure and
future expansion plans to help you create a roadmap which makes sure that you
get the best possible return from your investment.

Collaboration Systems
- Do you have multi-location teams working on a common project?
- Is the communication between these teams getting lost in emails?
- Do you find it difficult to trace the commitments your team makes to the
stakeholders?
- Do you manage your documents using shared directories?
- Do you find it difficult to manage issues in your programme/project using
traditional office tools (i.e. excel)?
If your answer to any of the above questions is “Yes”, we can help you find the
solution and answers as our team discussion management solution can potentially
help you to solve these issues effectively.
We have a track record of implementing these tools to the benefit of major
product development programmes.

team working.

Improving Team Effectiveness
With rapid changes and ongoing pressure in the business environment, often we
forget to communicate effectively and let our teams pause and reflect; and ask
questions such as:
- Where are we going?
- Are we heading in the right direction?
- What are we doing well?
- What can we do better?
The answers to these questions are not simple. It takes time to understand what
is happening around us and to focus our minds to identify new and improved ways
of working.
We work with our clients to carefully understand team interaction, team working
and team well being.
We have successfully conducted one day, off-site workshops with a well defined
objective creating a much greater awareness and energy among team members.
Please contact us for more details.
