Me and several other Microsoft employees have been teaming up to start our own consultancy firm. The main goal is to offer high quality work for a substantially lower cost than Microsoft. The problem is we all have quite a lot of skills on our plates which makes it hard to pin point the focus of our business. I don’t want to overload our customers which long service lists as this becomes a turn off for many.
Any thoughts on how we can reduce our service list?
Here’s roughly what we have now:
- AI and Machine learning
- Data insights and analytics
- Data quality assurance
- Optimize infrastructure and deployment for cost efficiency.
- Moving systems to the cloud and scale.
- Architecture Reviews to Improve system performance and scalability.
- Improve security
- Develop proof-of-concepts for new tech.
- Integrating multiple solutions for efficient workflows.
- Training staff in various technologies
- Application and database performance reviews.
I also rather remove as much technical drivel as possible, and this is already a “simplified” list.
What do you think?
You do know that almost all of these companies have delivery centers in developing countries to offset cost
Sure, but while we worked for Ms there also tons of companies that were using Ms consultancy services at ridiculously high rates, so we are targeting this kind of companies
