Advisory & Strategy

How do we get it right every time?

We start every engagement with executive workshops. They are 1-4 weeks focused on learning about YOU, our customer and partner, and you learning about us, your trusted advisor. We work together to establish a mission and vision, a roadmap for the future state of your organization and then, we get our hands dirty.

Executive Workshop Steps

1

Vision and Mission

We get everyone in the room that will have a stake in the solution and create a vision to work towards. We get everyone on the same page, and prioritize objectives.

2

Security

We will spend time with the organization and stakeholders to understand the security needs of the company. Including authorization, security model design, and organizational structure to deliver an enterprise solution.

3

Applications

We will meet with each application, IdP, and system owner (especially the homegrown stuff) to understand modernization, integration, and security needs. This ensures we know how content should be delivered to users.

4

Infrastructure and Support

We will review infrastructure and support needs, including where the platform will be deployed, who will support, disaster recovery, backups, storage, and establish SLAs.

5

User Experience

We will understand what different personas will be accessing and how, this will include corporate style guides, navigation, and platform taxonomy. We will determine whether high or low fidelity designs and prototypes are needed.

6

Content Review

We will discuss the people and processes that are a part of the solution, how the information will be displayed to users of eTag Fuse and where content will be needed.

We move at your pace!

We’re looking to set up a partnership and grow with you. We recognize that our success depends on our customers' satisfaction, and we work hard to earn and maintain their trust. Our commitment to customer satisfaction has helped us build a loyal customer base that has been with us for almost 10 years!
