Technology & Product Management
Technology Consulting
What is the right technology(s)? Who is the right partner(s)? Should we build it ourselves? What is the cost-benefit? These are the crucial questions all companies must ask when thinking about the future, and DNC wants to help you unlock the value of partnership so you can focus on your core business. Evaluating internal vs. external, if external then which partner, and determining how it all comes together is where we help you see clearly.
Product Management
Depending where our clients sit in the process and product lifecycle, we step in for part of or to support the entire process: Conducting research to clearly document the company’s market, user personas, and competitors. Establishing the product vision and communicating that vision to the respective stakeholders. Developing a strategic plan. Creating and maintaining the product roadmap. Collecting feedback and data for continued iterations.
Project Acceleration and Support
Regardless of the chosen project management methodology - Waterfall, Agile, Scrum, Hybrid, etc. - achieving your goals and meeting success criteria within targeted timeframes is critical. We work directly with senior leadership and internal project teams to deliver hands-on project management and leadership consulting, covering project implementation, execution and measurement.
Request for Proposal (RFP)
Vendor identification and selection is challenging. DNC can manage the end-to-end entire process for our clients, from Request for Information (RFI) and requirements gathering through contract negotiations. We identify the key market players pertinent to your needs, their pricing and the service levels to expect. We evaluate and guide our clients through a process to obtain the best possible business deal and strategic partnerships for optimizing your business.
Vendor Management
If you need help implementing a new vendor, or are seeking to strengthen an existing vendor relationship, DNC would like to help. Quarterly, semi- and/or annual reviews, service level agreements (SLA), restructuring contracts, negotiating terms, and facilitating workshops to create alignment are examples of tools we use to maximize vendor value to the company.
