Nearly all of our work comes from repeat business and referrals. We value long-term relationships, and always strive to embody the following values in our engagements: Our clients’ interests come first. Our advice is objective and driven by our clients’ specific needs, not what software vendors want to sell. We understand business and how to make technology work. We are well-rounded and forward-thinking consultants, not mere technologists. We understand complex business requirements quickly and translate them into solutions that deliver immediate and long-term benefits. Our design approach is straightforward. Simplicity in process and application design means a more effective solution and one that is easier to maintain as business needs evolve. We are cost- and value-conscious. We believe in delivering value to each client for every project, and that is reflected in our project management and billing practices. We don’t keep knowledge to ourselves. We teach our clients to be self-sufficient in maintaining the applications we deploy, and in developing new applications. Decreased reliance on outside resources means significant future cost savings. Back to top
