Digital Service Delivery
We support you at every point in the delivery lifecycle, right from defining the problem right through to the live services that solve them.
How we can help
Discovery and alpha: exploring the problem
In the discovery stage, we work with you to explore the problems you face. Then we look at the approaches needed to help you solve them and help you prioritise where to start.
Our aim is to help you:
- Clarify the problem you’re solving
- Find the users who need your product or service
- Understand what drives their behaviour
In the alpha stage, we build prototypes and test solutions to the problems we learned about during discovery.

Business case
Beta and live service: building your solution
Once we’ve worked with you to define the problem you need to solve and tested different solutions out, we can support you in the next phase of your delivery: beta MVP and live service.
This stage is all about delivery. In the beta phase, we build the minimum live service based on a reduced feature set or reduced audience. We use this method to reduce your risk and produce a service that is fit for purpose.
Once the service is live, we’ll continue to learn and adapt the service to meet changing user needs.
