Technology Management Practice
We provide state-of-the-art technology
management solutions that are tailored for medium to large scale
businesses: From insurance companies and investment banks to
pharmaceutical and oil and services companies. The technological
challenge that businesses face today is multi-fold and only clear
cut strategy and in-depth experience can resolve it.
Strategy
Planning
Without a proper and clear cut strategy, any
technology project is deemed to head down the drain. Our in-depth
experience in planning for large software projects can help you
identify the various components and understand the impact of each of
those on implementation stage. We chart down every possible scenario
and avoid implementation nightmares that normally come as a bonus
almost on every project. We would start work right from the senior
management, grasp your goals, and provide guidance within a short
time frame and even closely work with the development team and
provide advice to them, so that the strategy you devise gets
communicated all the way down without any loss. Our engineering
background can help not only devise a precise strategy but implement
them with ease on technology projects.
Solutions Architecture
We can architect your software solution and
guide you all the way through implementation and support.
Even technology companies that develop software
solutions, do not do proper architecture before starting development
of a project. Many think design stage as, putting together a
document from the gathered requirements and pass it on to the
development team. In many cases the design team or the solutions
architect moves on to another project after finishing the document.
Their architects have zero to little experience on project plan
development and lack vision. This can be a disastrous situation to
be in if you are the client.
There is a lot at stake here. You understand
that. We understand that. This is where we come in. A clear vision
is necessary to begin with.
For instance, Our Architect initially works
closely with the business unit and guide your team of business
analysts, provide them with all the insight and guidance, in order
to gather requirements the right way. If you are a senior manager
you might very well know, when gathering requirements asking the
same question to users several times may produce different answers
each time with exceptions getting added. So asking the question once
or twice is certainly not enough. Well, that's why we guide and
train the BA's and gather the requirements the the proper way. Also
the lack of technical knowledge among business analysts poses a
problem on highly complex projects where some of the business needs
can be groomed to fit in with the available technology upfront
rather than finding at a later stage thus saving thousands of
dollars.
Our Architect's strong technical expertise
combined with business acumen can help the system analysis stage
evolve like you have never seen before. Once the requirements stage
is complete the Architect can work with you and come up with a solid
and robust project plan (see project planning) and lead the
development team. We even help you choose the right third party for
the development of the solution. This stage is very critical because
everything will depend on the quality of the solution delivered. We
work closely with you on the cost-metrics and get the right vendor
that can deliver a quality solution on time. We also support
and guide your your internal development team. Having an Architect
from us is greatly beneficial since we are away from the politics
inside, and our goal is purely to help the senior management achieve
the specified goal. We assist you in developing a state-of-the-art
test plan rather than depending on the plan from the vendor. In this
way you maintain the quality of the delivered solution you deserve.
Before and during the implementation stage our
Architect will work closely with you and the vendor or the internal
team, to ensure all the business needs were met as expected and
identify possible trouble spots on the implementation plan and
suggest necessary steps to avoid them to ensure a smooth production
move.

Business Process Management / Workflow solutions / Imaging
In the technology world, employees spend an
average of over 2 hours each day reading and organizing emails. The
challenge is to effectively store and manage growing amounts of
information. The effective management of content is critical for
business and almost a necessity in order to be able to better
leverage information to respond quickly to opportunities and achieve
high rates of ROI. Enterprise Content Management (ECM) can help to
transform your organization into a productive and agile enterprise.
On the other hand managing the business process flow properly can
increase process performance and reduce cycle times, in turn improve
productivity of the organization. By automating, streamlining, and
optimizing complex processes you can manage the flow of work
throughout your enterprise, thereby see a direct increase in your
ROI.
Our experience in the Knowledge Management and
Business Content Management areas is not limited to one vendor. We
have expertise in a wide range of products and solutions and
collaboration suites form industry leading vendors like FileNET,
Documentum, OpenText, Verity, HummingBird, Microsoft, Oracle to name
a few.
Your organization's information come in by
various forms. It could range from faxes and emails to electronic
documents, e-Forms and paper documents. Document Imaging and
Capture solutions are a critical entry point that need to be
implemented properly in order to leverage this information later in
the business process. Our experience in solutions and products from
industry leading vendors like Kofax and Captaris, can help you
transform into a successful leader.
Our experience span across several industries
like financial services, pharmaceutical, government sector and
Insurance. This cross-industry experience coupled with expertise
over a wide suite of products from different vendors, makes us the
number one choice for your strategy planning and architecting
the right collaborative solution for you.
Project
Planning
Many projects fail due to poor initial planning
and mismanagement during the course of the project. The path to a
successful project can be paved only when there is a solid and
robust project plan to begin with. We can analyze your business
situation and devise a realistic project plan for any type of
technology project. We also provide validation services on existing
project plans to ensure the several components that need to be
present in order to realize a quality deliverable. Assigning a
third-party to validate the project plan could make a key difference
in the successful delivery of the project.
