Business Consultancy
As a business owner you are most likely very, very good at what you do. However, many small business owners find that they are not very, very good at the day-to-day operations of running the business. We come alongside you and help inject much needed common sense into your business structure.
We are business management consultants specializing in implementing well proven management profitability and organizational improvements. We understand the many challenges facing businesses in today’s fast-paced and competitive climate. We understand because many of our associates have owned or currently head-up their own successful business organizations.
Is your business requiring more and more of your time to maintain, much less to grow? Is it becoming your life, rather than your livelihood? Or, are you experiencing declining profits, markets, efficiencies, all of which you have grappled with alone. Have the results of your improvement initiatives proven disappointing in spite of all your efforts? Have you lost your business focus? Are you uncomfortably deep into your bank line of credit, or is your bank lending facility currently becoming overly burdensome? Or is it more serious; has your business declined to the turnaround stage?
We can help you:
cut operational costs
reduce business risk
create brand value
generate revenue from new sources
transform your company into an innovative market leader ahead of the competition
Why not buy off the Shelf?
Often there are Off-the-Shelf software solutions that achieve many of the requirements of individual companies, however there will normally be areas of operation that require the company to work differently, tailoring their business to the software available, rather than tailoring the software to there real business requirements.
Sometimes a good compromise can be achieved where a bespoke solution is used to ‘glue’ together different ‘Off-the-Shelf’ applications, however this is never the same as having a fully bespoke software solution developed from the ground up.
Office based applications
We develop office based applications to run on PCs powered by Microsoft operating systems, such as Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. Our Web Based Applications can be assessed by different types of computers such as Apple computers, tablet devices, Smartphone’s.
We have the skills to undertake many types of office based applications, using many programming languages and technologies. However our specialist area is in the development of bespoke database solutions. Out database applications are usually based on Microsoft Access, these applications are professionally developed so that you, as the end user do not have to deal with any of the day to day operations of the underlying Access database, we present clean user interfaces that offer all the functionality you require, but importantly without any functionality that is not required that only serves to clutter the system and confuse the user.
Web based applications
Web applications are effectively websites that have programming functionality.
A typical example would be a site for booking hotels or flights.
However it is possible to build internet based solutions that are not for use by the general public, but for use by your organisation alone, this can be particularly practical if you have a sales force that are home based for example, or if you have staff that need to access your system from many different locations.
We have many years of experience in developing bespoke office based and internet based solutions.We have developed many systems that embrace the plus points of both approaches, we have developed systems that whilst having an office based element, such as a database system, this can be linked to an internet site and the user can synchronise the data between the two with a click of the mouse.Using this approach we can ensure that both the office based and internet based halves of the system undertake tasks best suited to thier environment, each system is different and we would be happy to discuss how we could produce a dual location syncronised system for your business.
