Services

What Techdeskit does

From the first discovery workshop to the day-to-day running of your systems: one team that can analyse, deliver and support technology change.

01

Business analysis

Discovery workshops, 'as-is' and 'to-be' process mapping, requirements and user stories, business cases and investment papers, with traceability from approval through to what actually gets built.

02

Project & programme management

Programme and project leads who own the plan, the risks and the stakeholders from mobilisation to go-live, including vendor selection and management from RFP to sign-off.

03

Salesforce delivery

Analysis, process design, configuration, integration and technical build across the Salesforce platform, including Service Cloud and Field Service, for new implementations and migrations.

04

Change management & training

Lean Six Sigma process improvement, business readiness, communications, training and adoption, so the new way of working sticks after the project team has gone.

05

Software & web development

Custom applications, integrations and websites, designed and built to fit the systems and processes you already run.

06

Testing & QA

Test strategy and management, user acceptance testing and test automation that give you confidence before go-live rather than surprises after it.

07

Cyber security & compliance

Security reviews, governance and regulatory compliance for organisations working in environments where getting it wrong is not an option.

08

IT support & service desk

A responsive service desk and managed IT support for the everyday issues, so your people can get on with the job while we keep things running.

How we work

Ways to engage Techdeskit

Every programme is different, so the shape of the engagement follows the problem. These are the four ways clients most often work with us.

Embedded consultants

One specialist or a small team, whether analysts, project managers, developers or testers, embedded in your programme for the duration of a workstream, from discovery to go-live.

Discovery & assessment

A focused piece of work to understand the 'as-is', surface the shortfalls in a legacy system, define what 'to-be' needs to look like and support vendor selection before you commit.

End-to-end delivery

A Techdeskit team takes a defined piece of work from business case to go-live and handover, with a single point of accountability for the outcome.

Managed support

Ongoing IT support and service desk cover, or care and maintenance for the systems we have delivered, under a simple agreement that fits your organisation.

Why Techdeskit

Experience you can put in the room

01

Delivery experience, not just theory

Business analysis, programme delivery and technology change delivered inside utilities, financial services, insurance and facilities organisations: large, highly regulated environments where programmes have to land, working with everyone from C-level sponsors to delivery teams and vendors.

02

Certified and current

Our consultants hold credentials including Salesforce Business Analyst, Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, BCS Certificate in Business Analysis and Certified Scrum Product Owner, applied on live programmes rather than kept on a shelf.

03

One partner across the lifecycle

Analysts, project managers, Salesforce specialists, developers, testers and support engineers, with trusted associates brought in when a programme needs more hands, so the team fits the work rather than the other way round.

About

About Techdeskit

Techdeskit is an independent business and technology consultancy based in the South West. We help organisations across the UK plan, deliver and run technology change, from business analysis and programme management, through Salesforce, software development, testing and security, to day-to-day IT support.

Our consultants act as the conduit between technical and non-technical teams: constructively challenging, facilitating, listening and probing until the real need is understood, then making sure it stays traceable all the way through to delivery and into live service. We are as comfortable working with internal, external and vendor teams as we are with Agile, Scrum and Waterfall.

Techdeskit was founded by Natalie Jones, a Business Analyst with a long record of challenging legacy thinking and delivering scalable, secure solutions in regulated sectors. She leads a team of analysts, project managers, technical specialists and support engineers, and stays close to the work.
