We are Long Term Software Strategy ninjas…
Need a better plan for your software systems to work together seamlessly? Have lots of systems that all function well, but are in their own silos? Ready to have your systems run at maximum efficiency? Our long term software strategy and 3, 5, and 10 year technology planning services can help you get more out of your core and secondary software platforms.
Swip Systems, based in St. Louis, MO, helps companies all over the country organize and plan their software strategy for the long road. Let us know what software challenges you are experiencing and together we can create an integrated software master plan for your business.
Start with the End In Mind
To make a business run efficiently, you need multiple software systems to cover many different areas. The challenge comes in when these systems are disjointed or disparate and don’t pass data on to the next piece of software in the process.
This can leave you and your team frustrated and fed up (or just ready to throw your laptop out the window), not to mention leaving giant process holes in your business which decrease visibility and increase overall risk in your organization.
So how do you get started? Start with the end in mind.
Whether it’s getting your order data into your production system, importing data from a third-party platform, or having accurate numbers for your KPIs and metrics, we can help you design the system you want to see as your business grows.
Our St. Louis based software engineers, researchers, and strategists can help you design custom systems, selection systems off-the-shelf, and integrate platforms together. We’ve been doing this so long, we’ve even built a methodology around it. We call it “Build, Buy, or Both”.
Design Your Ecosystem
With the millions of software solutions available and many more being built each day, its tough for business owners and executives to evaluate all of the alternatives.
It’s also tough to know what software applications play nice with others, the robustness of the software itself, and the stability of software vendors. Add the fact that their sales reps will tell you the software can do anything you need it to, and you have a real convoluted decision on your hands.
You need a software expert in your corner. Someone that has the knowledge and know-how to design and build a software ecosystem and strategy that works for you, instead of slowing you down.
Prioritize and Execute
Our team will look at each software component in your system and help you determine what is working, what is missing, what needs to be enhanced, and what is just not working at all.
We’ll then help you prioritize the strategy we collectively developed based on your needs, wants, and budget, and also identify low hanging fruit that will make an immediate impact.
Our St. Louis engineers, researchers, and strategist will then continue to work the plan, prioritizing and executing as the plan unfolds.
Audit and Improve
We’ll also help you move into a continuous improvement mindset that will allow you to evaluate each software system, how they operate together, and the information accuracy they produce, and continually improve your systems along the way.
Having congruent software systems that are well planned out and integrated can make a massive impact on your business efficiency and bottom line. Contact us today and let’s get you tech moving!
