Application & Business Consulting

Every organisation accumulates applications the way a house accumulates keys: some open something important, some open nothing, and nobody is sure which is which. We sort the keyring — and fix the processes behind it.

Scope of work

Fewer systems. Clearer processes. Lower cost.

Application decisions are business decisions wearing technical clothes. We assess both together: what the process actually needs, what the portfolio actually costs, and where the honest overlaps and gaps are — then manage the consolidation or build-out that follows.

  • Application portfolio assessment: usage, cost, overlap, risk and retirement candidates
  • Business-process mapping and redesign before any system is bought or built
  • Requirements engineering and functional specification on the buyer's side
  • Build-vs-buy-vs-configure appraisal with total-cost honesty
  • Implementation oversight: acceptance testing, data migration governance, cutover planning
  • Benefits tracking after go-live — did the change do what the case promised?
AuditThe portfolio as it is, not as remembered
RationaliseRetire, merge, replace — in that order
ProveBenefits measured against the case

Paying for systems nobody can name a user of?

A portfolio assessment usually funds itself. Tell us what the estate looks like.
