Planning

• Planning service: Yes
• How the planning service works: Anaeko provides expert planning using proven methodologies and rapid assessments to tailor our guidance to our customers' specific business requirements and infrastructure. We are strong believers in Agile Strategy; using Tactical Priorities to drive Strategic Goals, meaning we assess all change in terms of immediate and long-term benefit versus ease of implementation and impact on users. We appoint a Delivery Manager and multi-skilled team to engage with client stakeholders in a One-team approach, promoting excellent collaboration and transparency. We focus on client outcomes, working backwards to define and prioritise business objectives and goals and selecting KPIs to measure success. We draw on our experience and best practice reference models to recommend suitable technologies, architectures, workflows, processes, mechanisms, and user training. Risk management is embedded in our agile process, catering for dependencies, constraints, timescales, complexities, and unknowns. A key output from our requirements analysis and planning is a roadmap charting a journey from the baseline to target operating models. Our Agile delivery approach provides quick-win solutions, validates assumptions, rapidly adjusts plans to maximise efficiency against time and budget and to remain on track for successful outcomes.

  Covid-19 recovery

  Anaeko recognises the impact of COVID-19 on businesses, communities, and individuals. Those who are disadvantaged, underprivileged and marginalised in society have suffered worse consequences from the pandemic. ; ; At Anaeko we have a long record of supporting remote working, with staff and client teams distributed across the globe. We have policies, processes, and digital tools in place, supporting home office and remote working. Anaeko has a wellbeing policy with free support to staff from mental health experts. We were very well placed to deal with the pandemic, through these and other measures. Lessons learned during the pandemic have been incorporated in our policies and processes, and we continue to make improvements. ; ; Youths in education were impacted at all key stages of development in terms of developing social skills, their resilience, and impacts on mental health. For many their safe space for learning and development was unavailable to them for long periods. Health care provision was impacted, with increased waiting lists and extended time to receive diagnosis and treatments. ; ; At Anaeko we continue with our contributions to society through our actions and works for digital inclusion, improved patient pathways and outcomes, developing client solutions to combat climate change, and many other tech-for-good initiatives.; ; Anaeko continues to take a lead role in driving health and social care initiatives, working with health tech partners and start-up companies on innovative solutions for improved patient care and pathways.

Anaeko has supported Generation Innovation for several years and has a goal to emphasise Digital Inclusion in the 2024 programme. ; ; We continue to support Queens University Belfast (QUB) Bright Future Collective.
