Has Your Tech Development Stalled?

For scaling businesses IT can be one of the most frustrating aspects of the business, especially if tech development is not a core discipline. We’ve seen countless occasions where the leadership team cannot understand why their development does not seem to get out of the blocks and build traction. And the warning sign is just that: things don’t happen, deadlines are missed, basic support is not available despite the time, patience and support.

Common reasons for these issues include:

  • A fundamental gap between the idea and delivery, with the tech dev just not being complete;
  • Unclear, over-complicated or prioritisation of requirements;
  • Absence of technical project management and ownership;
  • Poor technical maturity;
  • Lack of planning for system and data architecture (system coherence across your technology landscape) and technology selection; and 
  • Inappropriate pre-production testing environments and network resilience. 

These issues arise when a ‘black box’ approach to IT is applied and has led to businesses having to start their tech investment again, despite massive investments.
