We have a team of highly experienced and skilled business analysts who work collaboratively with organisations to ensure benefits are delivered through projects.
System Specification and Requirements
Obtaining high-quality, accurate and prioritised requirements for a project or change is paramount to its success. We gather requirements using a tailored method appropriate to the business situation or organisation. This could be in the form of facilitated workshops, in-depth interviews, questionnaires, or a blend of approaches. Requirements are prioritised and documented in a detailed and standardised format so that ambiguity is eliminated, and the most effective solution can be implemented to ensure benefits are realised.
Business Process Modelling and Optimisation
At its simplest, Business Process Modelling seeks to improve business performance by ensuring that all the activities required to provide a product or service are effectively, efficiently and consistently coordinated. Performed well, it can deliver a number of significant advantages to an organisation. We approach Business Process Modelling for our clients with a staged model containing identification, documentation, analysis and improvement, implementation and control.
Test Management
We have a great depth of experience in test management to ensure that projects receive the required support and skills in this area. A robust test management strategy, plan and implementation of that plan is paramount to the success of any software implementation. In addition to solving minor bugs and issues with a new system or technology change, adopting a structured testing approach can greatly reduce the risk of issues and delays upon implementation.
