 |
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. |
 |
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:
 | You 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:
 | You 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:
 | If 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:
 | Making 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:
 | With 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:
 | If 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! |
 | Further, 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:
 | From 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:
 | Successful 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.
