Analysis and consulting
Estimate value before building.
LDS works with the company to examine which changes make economic sense and what conditions need to be met.
Discuss a projectJustify priorities.
A sound decision requires an understanding of the current situation, transparent assumptions and a comparison with the expected effort.
Understand processes
Identify where work arises, information is missing and systems reach their limits.
Calculate value
Assess the economic value of possible improvements using transparent assumptions.
Check feasibility
Examine data, interfaces, access permissions and operational requirements.
Prioritise actions
Recommend the actions that contribute most to the company’s goals.
Possible outcomes
A report can advise against building.
The assessment should support a decision. These three illustrative recommendations show why a ranked list is more useful than a collection of ideas.
- Now
Implement selectively
A recurring bottleneck is established, the required data is available and the expected benefit is proportionate to building and running the solution.
- First
Clarify a prerequisite
The potential matters, but the interface, data quality or ownership remains uncertain. The report identifies the check to make before committing budget.
- Not yet
Keep what works
The task occurs too rarely or an existing feature is sufficient. Dedicated development is then not recommended.
Illustrative decision types, not results from client projects.
Common questions
Does the analysis commit the company to development?
Analysis, development and training can be commissioned independently. The precise scope is agreed before the engagement.
What does a calculated saving mean?
An estimate of potential value relies on assumptions. Time savings, additional capacity and actual reductions in expenditure are considered separately; development and ongoing operation must be included in the calculation.
