Our process
Our advisory and engineering practices

With an engineering first mindset, we are an integrated team of consultants, software engineers, UX designers and domain experts that can help you deliver innovative solutions. We will assume accountability and partner with you from strategy inception to the desired outcomes

01

Strategy

Too often, strategies are devised without an appreciation for what technology can enable or without the practical experience gained through implementation.  Our strategy and advisory services help clients develop unique and tangible strategies tailored for their specific needs, grounded in a clear roadmap that can actually be realized.

How we help
Strategy & Roadmap

We advise clients on strategic planning and decisioning, modernization, and process engineering across both business and technology to enact sustained transformation.

Customer Experience

We help clients define differentiating customer experiences aligned to business goals and supported by comprehensive market and customer insights. We leverage this as inputs for a hyper-collaborative experience design process that delivers experiences that are scalable and meet users needs while exceeding their expectations.

Validation & Business Case

Too often, programs are poorly planned and badly estimated. At Electric Mind, we bring our market leading delivery knowledge to define or validate business cases, delivery estimates and delivery structures to sidestep potential funding or capacity issues well before you experience them.

Business & Technology Architecture

We help clients define business and technology architecture to guide their organization structure, capabilities, and enabling technology. We outline market leading enterprise wide, functional, and technology solution architectures including a view of maturity against your competitors and industry standards.

CIO Advisory

We advise the office of the Chief Information Officer to help plan and deliver technology programs and transformation efforts to achieve business objectives and improved KPIs. We help clients reimagine and redesign the technology organization’s operating model and processes to realize optimization, cost savings and improved ways of working.

02

Design

Our design capabilities span business, product, and solutions domains. We take a unique, integrated approach to defining and differentiating experiences, products, solutions, and delivery systems aligned to business strategy and grounded in technological feasibility.

How we help
User Experience

Balancing user needs, business objectives, and technological feasibility, we create experiences that help users accomplish their goals while delighting them with engaging visual interfaces.

Portfolio & Roadmap

Planning and maintaining intricate implementation sequencing across large programs can be challenging. Our recognized delivery leadership helps clients outline detailed implementation sequencing based on business value, risk management, and delivery optimization to ensure optimal success for the organization.

Product Platform

Developing a collection of common modules to create a Product Platform is a valuable lever to reduce cost and expand reach. We assist our clients with functional and operating model definition to transform their traditional product set into a platform, while optimizing the products and enabling technology platforms.

Delivery System

Delivering a product to market requires more than developers and a plan. We work with clients to put together strategies for talent management, organizational structure, and delivery models to ensure the right team, methodologies, and practices are in place to ensure effective delivery.

Architecture & Solution Design

We develop enterprise technology vision, blueprint definition, and patterns to enable transformation. We support our clients in creating traditional and cloud-native applications to meet evolving user and business expectations in order to deliver maximum return-on-investment.

03

Engineering

Our pragmatic, responsible, and market tested Engineering approach leads to production quality delivery with the ability to respond to evolving business priorities. Clients repeatedly turn to our engineering services to support them across capabilities including software development, agile-based continuous delivery, cloud and infrastructure, performance and operability, and cybersecurity.

How we help
Agile-based continuous Delivery

Feature-based delivery to production enables responsiveness to changing requirements and user feedback, while facilitating early value creation. Our combination of refactoring, automated testing, continuous integration, and frequent deployments keep quality and software delivery throughput high, no matter the challenge.

Cloud & Infrastructure

Cloud enabled infrastructure has had a profound impact on technology stacks and deployment models. At Electric Mind, we work with clients to design refreshed cloud and infrastructure solutions fuelled by pipeline automation; and execute the deliver and migration of applications to cloud and other third-party providers.

Performance & Operability

High quality software must meet non-functional requirements. We work with our clients to define, document, and deliver on comprehensive non-functional requirements that support high-performance and scalability. We also help our clients implement the right level of reporting and monitoring required for highly available software systems.

Cybersecurity

Protecting critical systems and sensitive information from attacks is increasingly complex. Our cybersecurity experts can ensure protection and resilience of your technology from attacks through our approach to threat modeling, static and dynamic pressure testing, secure coding techniques, and proper hardware deployment.
