simple solutions through process or technology

Why make things complicated?


Isn't running your business complicated enough without worrying about complex technology?  Technology that claims to make your life easier but never seems to work or provide the benefits your business needed to pay back the huge investment.
Take a step back and look at where your problems really lie and where you can improve efficiency, productivity, quality.... but without assuming a huge new IT system will be the answer.

 

 

 

 

  • Analyse your business processes questionning each activity
  • Analyse your business systems to establish if they're helping or hindering
  • Proposing change to realise the true value of your business

What I offer

I'm an experienced freelancer offering a range of consultancy and system development services, from just helping identify your problems to developing custom enterprise level IT systems to your requirements. I have over 10 years experience, working with major clients and am equally skilled in business as I am with technology and software development.

 

return on investment

Get a true return on investment through solutions that deliver only what you need.

How many features and functions does your business system give you that you don't even know how to use?  How many do you use on a daily basis?   I'm a big believer in the concept of YAGNI - You Aint Gonna Need It - and prefer to concentrate on the functions that will deliver your business benefits without giving you all the bells and whistles that complicate the usability and inflate the cost and time of delivering a solution.

 

clever yet simple

The solutions we provide are sufficiently clever and yet remarkably simple

If something is difficult people will find a way of doing it differently.  All that time and money you spent putting in a clever system is wasted when it's completely bypassed because your team don't understand it or it's cumbersome to use.

Show off just how clever you are

It's human nature to show off your skills and to bask in the glory of a peer telling you how impressed they are but if you overcook it, they won't even understand it enough to be impressed...
