vingt quatre - business
news
vingt quatre CEO Dave Furby says "Many of our clients are looking
for a greater complexity of solution than they were when we
started up three years ago. The whole business is changing with
client centric developments being the core requirement. This,
of course, has always been the case but with industry now being
far more web literate it is liberating to be working far more
in partnership with our customers who know what they want. In
the late '90's the web industry was far more interested in short
term gain, bill big and build big, which is why we started up,
to get away from that ethos and work with our clients. We have
always built solutions to suit both the requirements and the
available budgets. There is no point in trying to blind with
science to build a bigger initial price, it never stands long
term. Help the client understand the entire process and the
relationship will run long term. Using a variety of development
teams, both internally and through our partners both here in
the UK and in India we are able to build solutions and ongoing
plans which do not over stretch any party in any way, thus killing
off the project before it ever starts. Most e-business solutions
these days require a long term view, years in advance to enable
successful deployment. The main thing to understand is that
the web is growing up and so are its users, e-business is here
to stay and thus must be developed with a long term commitment
if you want to succeed as an online offering. Use the web for
your advantage, not just because everyone else is. Successful
e-business deployment can save you money, big time, as well
as earn money. Sell, communicate, build and prosper with a successful
e-business application partnership with VQ."
