A Fresh Perspective on IT Consultancy. The 7 things we do differently when Starting a Collaboration

Every IT consultancy company out there is talking about putting clients first, and in that aspect, we’re not that different. The thing is, we really mean it.

Here at Wirtek, we focus on collaboration. And that's not just a buzzword; it's the backbone of how we do things. We've seen firsthand how our unique process produces remarkable results for our clients, and we're excited to share the secrets behind our approach. 

Here's how we've reinterpreted client collaboration to prioritize your needs.

 

1. Listening First
Our collaborations always start with us getting to know you and your needs. We don't offer one-size-fits-all solutions; instead, we take the time to dive deep into your project's unique requirements and tailor our approach accordingly. This stage gives us a comprehensive understanding of your product and what you hope to achieve with our partnership.

 

2. Crafting the Perfect Core Team for You
Once we've grasped your vision, we put together a dedicated core team perfectly suited for your project. This team typically includes a product owner, a software architect, and a Scrum master, who, together, form the backbone of the project. By having this trio in place, we ensure that your functional requirements are defined, quality standards are met, and the project's workflow is efficiently organized.

 

3. Extending the Team Based on Your Needs
As we move forward, we extend the core team, bringing in more talented individuals to meet your project's growing needs. We've found that a diverse team - in terms of gender, experience, and seniority - is key to creating a dynamic work environment. This variety sparks creativity and innovation, leading to more effective problem-solving and, ultimately, a better product for you.

 

4. Mastering Remote Collaboration
While working with a remote team can seem daunting, we've got it down to a science. We've found that clear communication, regular check-ins, and mutual trust can turn remote work into a major advantage, allowing us to source the best talent for your project, regardless of location. We use tools like Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Outlook for smooth communication, while Jira, Trello, and Azure DevOps help us manage tasks and track issues effectively.

 

5. Implementing Agile Methodologies
We were early adopters of Agile methodologies, and that's because we believe in its power to deliver results. Our team is full of Certified Scrum Masters and Certified Scrum Professionals, and we're committed to using these principles to deliver your project efficiently and effectively. This approach fosters transparency, improves our adaptability to change, and ensures we're continuously delivering value to you.

 

6. Streamlining Your Infrastructure
We're flexible when it comes to adapting to your infrastructure. Whether it's communication, version control, or issue tracking, we're proficient in a range of tools and can quickly align with your existing systems. This means less time spent on technical hurdles and more time focused on making your project a success.

 

7. Tackling Product Documentation
We know that a lack of comprehensive product documentation can be a concern. But don't worry - we're experts at developing product specifications collaboratively. We keep documentation "live", making it a dynamic part of our working process. This approach allows us to learn your product as we define it, resulting in an accurate, up-to-date record of your product's specifications.

 


 

Our approach isn't just about getting the job done; it's about understanding your needs, tailoring our methods to meet them, and empowering you through partnership. This is what truly sets us apart and we can't wait to show you the Wirtek difference.
