A truly efficient product development and engineering process requires both strategic and operational vision. Yet achieving both today is extraordinarily difficult. Product development organizations are under constant pressure to generate more big ideas with the potential to be the next big market-makers, and to do so while accelerating time to market, increasing profitability, reducing costs, and navigating an ever-changing landscape of compliance regulations.
——SV Technology Services vision——
SV Technology Services helps product development organizations combine process and organizational improvements with the implementation of modern product life cycle management (PLM) systems in alignment with strategic and operational objectives. Our practitioners bring significant experience to engagements, having worked with complex organizations across a wide range of industries to deliver transformational projects that drive business value. This knowledge is also captured in industry-specific process models based on years of hands-on experience in an attempt to accelerate implementation efforts.
While new processes and technology will streamline requirements and protocols, we know that analytical excellence alone is unlikely to shift people’s behavior or underlying causes for disparity. We use genuine collaboration and empowerment throughout our projects in an effort to unlock real value for our clients. Leveraging the broad resources of SV Technology Services, we provide end-to-end services globally, including strategy development, process design and implementation, organizational change and redesign, and technology implementation.
