With vast experience of collaborating with in-house teams moving to Agile practices, we understand how to tackle the challenges faced when making this transition. We can help you to implement new ways of working into your organisation through co-working, training and mentoring.
Replace a legacy system
We love the opportunity to create systems that are more powerful and easier to use. It’s often the smallest details in the legacy system, and how people interact with it, which are crucial to the success of a new build. Our developers will question each intricate detail until they have all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle to make a perfect picture.
Streamline a business process
Bringing our experience in many techs and across many industries to the table, we will explore cost-effective options on how you can best make use of software to help your business grow. Attention to detail really counts here; a small tweak can make the biggest difference.
Extra help through a busy period
Our development team were hired on their ability to quickly pick up different techs and be productive in new teams. We are happy to work as an independent scrum team, or to fully integrate ourselves with your developers in a mixed team.
Develop an industry revolutionary idea
We bring insights from multiple industries to help you transform ideas into reality, using technology in innovative ways. Our collaborative Agile approach lets you see working software from the start, and to shape it as it is built and tested in the real world.
Remove reliance on spreadsheets
We will unpick your spreadsheet-based processes and introduce a host of new opportunities from new insights to greater collaboration with a new way of working. This could form the start of a new roadmap for your technological evolution!
Gain technical knowledge on a key application
Our support technicians will dig into the application and get an understanding of its fundamentals. We can then create a quick start guide for anyone using the application and train in house teams on how to support it.
Support through a sudden spike of work
Our agile support team can be reactive to your priorities and join your team whenever you need them; alternatively this resource can also be used proactively to add features or improve and de-risk areas of code.
Reliable availability of a business-critical application
Our retainer-based contracts guarantee availability of developers throughout business hours, without hiring your own full-time support engineer. The knowledge of your application is shared across our support team, plus you’ll have access to Ghyston technical knowledge from across the business.
