How we help, by situation.
Four common starting points. Each runs through the same sequence: consult, build, deploy,
manage, improve.
- 01
consult
- 02
build
- 03
deploy
- 04
manage
- 05
improve
A
Build a new product
You have a product or internal tool to create and want it built once, properly, by people who will still be around afterwards.
- → Scope the first useful version, not the full wishlist
- → Data model and integrations decided early
- → Deployed on infrastructure you own, documented
covers - consult (covered)
- build (covered)
- deploy (covered)
- manage (covered)
- improve (covered)
B
Modernise an existing system
Something works but is expensive to change: old framework versions, no tests, undocumented deployment, or a single point of failure.
- → Audit first: what is safe to touch and in what order
- → Incremental migration, no big-bang rewrites
- → Upgrades, dependency and database work in stages
covers - consult (covered)
- build (covered)
- deploy (covered)
- manage (not covered)
- improve (not covered)
C
Maintain and support systems
You need a named technical owner for hosting, updates and the things that break at inconvenient times.
- → Monitoring and alerting configured to your risk
- → Patch, backup and restore-test schedules
- → Retainer hours for small changes as they come up
covers - consult (not covered)
- build (not covered)
- deploy (not covered)
- manage (covered)
- improve (covered)
D
Improve performance and visibility
Pages are slow, search visibility is poor, or load is exposing queries that were fine at a smaller scale.
- → Measure in the field before changing anything
- → Front-end, caching and server-side fixes together
- → Technical SEO handled as engineering, not content
covers - consult (not covered)
- build (not covered)
- deploy (not covered)
- manage (not covered)
- improve (covered)
If none of these match, describe the situation and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.
