Let's Talk

The Drain

Your ancillary business activities are draining resources from you or your clients.

Ancillary Activities Most businesses must perform activities that are ancillary to their core mission

Accept, process, and track orders or requests from customers

Track prospective and existing clients, deals, or projects

Manage the logistics of crews, equipment, and materials

Collect information from customers, vendors, or employees

Analyze data and report insights to stakeholders

Migrate information from one system to another

Flawed Processes Your current process for completing these ancillary business activities is flawed

Manual Process

You're managing your information manually—that is, with pen and paper, mail, telephone, with calculators, or with physical files and folders.

Off-the-Shelf (OTS) Software

You're using an off-the-shelf computer product—like Google Sheets, Microsoft Word, a CRM, or project management software—and it just isn't working. It's the proverbial square peg in a round hole.

Bad Custom Software

You're using custom software, but it's outdated, performs poorly, or was not well-crafted for human users. It might be making things harder, not easier.

Drained Resources Due to flawed processes, your ancillary activities are draining business resources

Root Cause The flawed business process means that your work is complicated, disorganized, repetitive, or error-prone

Tangible Costs The activity expends significant effort and time, and it may cause you to lose deals. This means higher costs, lower revenue, and diminished profitability.

Intangible Costs You, your team, your customers, or your vendors are stressed, lost, overwhelmed, frustrated, annoyed, or distracted.

You shouldn't have to work like this.

The Plug

We'll help you plug the drain on your resources with a tailored, computerized process for your ancillary activities.

What Will We Do? Replace your current process with one that is computerized, systematized, and automated

Computerized

No more working with pencil and paper. Now, you'll use a tailored software application.

Systematized

The application will organize your activities into an optimal workflow.

Automated

Wherever possible, we'll let the computer do the work for you by automating tasks.

How Will We Do It? We'll build and implement your solution in 5 core phases

1. Investigation

We gather information from stakeholders to better understand your unique processes, goals, and challenges.

2. Development

We iteratively and incrementally design, build, and deploy your software.

3. Acceptance

Once you're satisfied with the software we agree that it is complete.

4. Implementation

We help you implement the software within your business and teach stakeholders how to use it.

5. Transition

We transition our core focus from development to maintenance and operations.

Ensuring Progress

We improve your old process by ensuring that your new software is practical and tactical.

Practical Software is practical if it's useable—if it's simple, clear, and organized

Guiding Principle

Human-First Interface

We strive to focus on the human aspect of your users when designing all facets of our user interfaces.

Development Techniques

Regular User Feedback

We use agile project management methods to collect regular feedback from you and your users. This way, we can make sure the software actually works for the people who will use it.

Social Scientific Design

We draw on social science research to design user interfaces that fit natural human information processing and decision making. We want to work with—not against—innate human tendencies.

Tactical Software is tactical if it helps users accomplish valuable business outcomes

Guiding Principle

Business-First Functionality

All software functionality should be laser-focused on achieving your business goals and objectives.

Development Techniques

Feature Prioritization

You and your team will decide which software features are most valuable to you. Then, we'll focus on designing and building those features first.

Incremental Delivery

We structure the project so that we can deliver valuable software functionality to your business as early as possible. Then we continue to incrementally improve upon the product with new features.

Regular Executive Feedback

We seek continual feedback from managers and executives on your team to ensure that the features we're building actually help you accomplish valuable business outcomes.
