Rapid Growth within your company and team

THE PROBLEM

You planned for rapid growth, but now it is really happening. And it's not as easy to control as you thought. Processes aren't in place, schedules are slipping, hiring is lagging your needs. Your customers in the rest of the business are impatient — just as pressed for time as you and dependent on you meeting your deliverables.

THE SOLUTION

Inventivity offers custom services to address startup and rapid growth situations. We have experience building teams at the same time we help to build the business. We can aid in hiring, and in developing processes and controls to manage interactions with the rest of the business. We have vendor selection experience, as well as a strong history of architectural development and management of external vendors or development teams, both local and remote. And we have a wealth of experience evaluating technology organizations and helping improve their performance. We've done it for our teams, let us do it for yours.

THE PROCESS

Our rapid-growth engagement begins, as with all our engagements, with a shared understanding of your goals for the engagement. Every project is different in the details and we need to understand your goals in order to meet your needs.

Next, we work with the technology leadership and the executives to prioritize the growth issues facing the organization, in the context of immediate and long-term business and IT goals. We will learn what is important to you and meld that with our experience in what is important to all organizations undergoing rapid growth — this ensures that the decisions we reach with you are valuable for the long term as well as right now.

Finally, with a common set of goals, we dig in and help shape the IT organization...whether that means selecting and implementing a new platform, identifying bottlenecks in business processes, or helping select between outsourcing and growing your team — we offer the expertise and experience to help you make the right choices.

While our recommendations alone are a tremendous source of value, we don't avoid the difficult tasks. We can help with management of the development efforts, remote management of vendors or outsourced teams, and execution of integration-related projects.

THE RESULT

One of the greatest challenges for any new entity is managing growth. At the close of an Inventivity engagement, you will have tools to track and manage your growth, experience and guidelines for making growth-related decisions, and the experience that comes from working with experts solving familiar problems.
