Over years of experience helping clients create and capture value, we’ve continuously honed our approach (more formally known as the Nexient Delivery Process).

Clients have found the model particularly effective in supporting a transition from traditional IT delivery models (focused on operational efficiency and risk mitigation) to a Silicon Valley-style product development model (focused on innovation, digital experience, and driving revenue).

The process comprises four phases in a continuum. For new product innovation, we will go through all four phases; matured products may start anywhere in the process. Every phase incorporates a retrospective, in which we identify the strengths and opportunities we can use to improve future phases and projects.
