Planning

• Planning service: Yes
• How the planning service works: To build detailed knowledge of the context and domain for any project, an initial phase of planning, definition and knowledge transfer will generally take place at the start of an engagement, we call this as Discovery phase. This discovery phase brings together key stakeholders – from business leaders to technical SME’s and users – to define project expectations and desired outcomes.; ; Through facilitated discussions and activities, we'll work with you to:; ; - Get Everyone on the Same Page: We'll make sure everyone understands the project's purpose and what achieving success looks like.; - Uncover Your Current State: We'll gain a clear picture of your existing processes, systems, and potential challenges.; - Map User Needs: We'll identify and prioritise the needs of those who'll be impacted by the project.; - Define Technical Considerations: We'll outline any technical limitations or opportunities relevant to the project scope.; - Develop a Prioritised Roadmap: We'll collaboratively create a clear plan that outlines key milestones and deliverables.; ; By the end of the Discovery phase, you'll have a shared vision for the project, a prioritised roadmap, and a deeper understanding of the journey ahead. ; ; This initial inception phase can be contracted separately if required.
• Planning service works with specific services: No

Our approach deals with integration, dependencies, and risks right from the start.

They also help shape and refine the overall service design, management processes, and team skills.; ; We make sure projects start off strong with our expertise in designing, configuring, and setting up various continuous delivery and automated cloud deployment environments. These techniques ensure software can be deployed and tested reliably and repeatedly at each stage, all the way up to production in the cloud.

This arrangement ensures seamless integration of development and ongoing management.; ; We recommend establishing a support plan, a service responsibility matrix, and appropriate service levels at the outset to meet the client’s specific needs. The development team is responsible for providing both second-tier (infrastructure-related, aligned with hosting support contracts) and third-tier (application-related) support during regular business hours, with the option for customized round-the-clock on-call support if necessary.; ; Our approach includes regular reviews of the service and performance against the agreed deliverables and timelines, as well as continuous monitoring of contractual performance against the established SLAs.
