Our ‘situation-specific’ approach ensures that we deliver exactly the right solutions for our clients, not some standard 'one size fits all' productised offerings. We invest time to fully understand our clients objectives and constraints, then combine that picture with what is in the market (now and in the future), utilise own experience/knowledge or extensive and appropriate contacts/partnerships - to ultimately provide the right advice, service, and success.

 

bullet

And we will work inline with how our clients want to - for example, delivery can be traditional written or 'face-to-face', through online media communication, or over the telephone. You choose.

 


1. Generate and develop your Internet ideas and strategy:

bulletYou may have a fantastic ‘internet’ concept for a new business; an idea on how to augment your existing business; or you may simply wish to adjust and change your existing solution. With our extensive knowledge of what works for customers from an overall, specific feature, and usability perspective - combined with what needs to work for your business - we can help you build and develop those concepts and ideas into a winning strategy and plan.

 2. Ensure that business cases are right:

bulletYou may have already built a business case which simply needs evaluation and comment; or you may just have the concept and need the business case developing. With a wealth of experience we can ensure your business case is right – for the market (customers/competitors), for your business, and for any investment partners.

 3. Help you define what the product/service will be:

bulletIf you wish to undertake new or ‘change’ developments, it is certainly worthwhile to define what you wish the application or feature to do. This saves both time and cost along the development lifecycle. Here at EFish we can help you undertake usability studies, develop creative specifications to match your brand position, and undertake functional specifications and use-case work. Would you build a house without any plans....that wisdom is as applicable in the virtual world as the real one!

4. Build and evaluate the programme plan:

bulletMaking certain that ALL appropriate activities in the development cycle happen on time are often vital to ensure costs are controlled and market opportunities are fully appreciated. With strong understanding of development processes and project approaches (agile, unified process, Prince 2) we can validate existing plans for comprehensiveness, help you build appropriate and full programme plans, or even run the development cycle for you. We may even tell you to scrap your existing approach and become more agile - if that's correct for your business.

5. Make the correct development/design/technology choices:

bulletWith a massive array of choices regarding application programming standards, middleware and hardware choices, hosting facilities, in house design or off the shelf (COTs) developments , it’s no wonder many find the choice of how they are going to realise their plans technically bewildering. EFish can help – from turnkey architecture planning, to application solution choices, hosting environment evaluation, creative consultancy, security planning, or business continuuity – let our technical and design architects help you make the right choices.

6. Select the right implementation, development, operations and investment partners:

bulletIf technical choices are complex yet another layer may need to be added - i.e. which partner should you choose to help undertake much of the work? Especially if that includes design, development, engineering, operations, and market optimisation work. With strong links in the industry covering virtually all disciplines, EFish is here to help remove some of the fog and help as necessary in any commercial manner - from selection processes (RFI/RFP), selection analysis, to commercial negotiation!
bulletFurther, with contacts in the investments arena, we can provide good solid advice on investment options, approaches and potential partners.

 7. Make sure your business is operationally ready:

bulletFrom the smallest to the largest developments, all change requires businesses to be ready to operate that change. This may range from full organisational framework changes (company structure, personnel numbers, reward and benefit mechanisms, cultural change, process and procedure review) to simpler team training and process development/enhancement. We can help and offer advice at all levels.

 8. Market optimisation:

bulletSuccessful implementation and operational readiness for customer-facing developments count for little unless you can generate the required revenues. With expertise in market optimisation and business development, EFish can help new and existing businesses get the most from their investment.
