Time for your technology health check

There are many reasons that businesses approach us for a health check (or audit) on their technology, as well as the people and processes which underpin it. If you’re wondering whether it could be a good time to book one in for your business read on!

A technical health check can be beneficial for a number of reasons, such as to:

  • Understand the technology landscape within your business today; architecture, systems, infrastructure, core technologies and how these things relate to and depend on one another.
  • Identify software and hardware optimisation and improvement opportunities across the likes of performance, security, hygiene, cost etc.
  • Gain insight into the people you work with (both internal and external), their ways of working and capabilities.
  • Independently evaluate a technology product and/or team that you are considering investing in, partnering with or acquiring.

You may be a new CEO, CTO or COO needing insight into your businesses technology, people and processes to lead a strategic change programme, or you might need an independent assessment of the technological capabilities, roadmap feasibility and scalability as part of an investment/M&A opportunity.

Whatever position you find yourself in, we have the experience of delivering technology health checks for:

  • Investment companies.
  • Global Tier 1/2 sports betting and online casino operators.
  • Technology suppliers and service providers.

How do we do this?

Our team will include iGaming-focused technical Consultants who will gain an understanding of your team and technology. They have deep expertise across; solution architecture, software development, project and product management within a multitude of iGaming businesses; operators, suppliers and service providers.

They focus on areas such as:

  • Performance, testing, scalability and security.
  • Development and deployment processes.
  • Architecture and infrastructure.
  • Data management and integrations.
  • Technical documentation.
  • Team structure, capabilities and training.
  • Disaster recovery and technical debt.

The time for this process largely depends on the complexity of the organisation, the scope of the review, the availability of information, the issues faced and the level of detail required.  We typically conduct technical audits over a 2-8 week period.

The output is an audience-focused report which clarifies the current position and provides an actionable plan for improvement. If, as part of our assessment, we can see that there is a skills or resource gap, we can also offer further practical support via our Augmented Teams or Bespoke Development services.

Take a look at our case study for an example of how we’ve worked with an International Tier 1 online sports betting and casino client to provide the insight into their technology, people and processes to inform their strategy.
