The problem

From fledgling startups to enterprise-level tech providers, companies frequently underestimate development costs, human capital requirements, and time required to launch a well-executed digital product or update to existing software.

As a result, projects often end up over budget and behind schedule, products are poorly executed, and teams feel overwhelmed and burnt out.

Things we regularly hear

Outsourcing doesn’t always come with product strategy and process optimization.

I need to deliver a software solution quickly but I don’t have time to stand up a dedicated in-house team.

Product design is lacking and features for long term viability are missed

Work just gets thrown over the fence (non-agile, non-collaborative) which extends development time and increases effort. Think waterfall, ‘scrumterfall.’

How we help

At Brightnets, we believe product development doesn’t have to be difficult or painful. We help teams head off common problems, before they arise, by focusing on three areas where most problems originate.

Product Strategy & Leadership

Building new products, ways of delivering products, or software offerings requires significant investment of time and resources — and teams can waste a lot of time and money running in the wrong direction. 

To ensure clients allocate resources wisely, we help leadership think through long-term plans, formulate a strategic product roadmap, and prioritize specific ideas over others. During this process, we often uncover opportunities to uplevel product ideas. Our clients range from startups planning to develop new products, features or software to enterprise customers with adoption or execution issues. 

  • Product Strategy

  • Product Roadmap & Guidance

  • Industry & Competitive Analysis

  • Fractional CPO Support

  • P&L Review

Execution and Performance

Armed with a clear product strategy, we thoroughly review product objectives and existing resources, ask tough questions, and challenge assumptions about realistic deliverables, timelines and scopes. 

We develop common frameworks for evaluating product ideas and create approaches that balance business value against level of effort in order to effectively prioritize product initiatives. This allows the business to develop several types of product roadmaps including:

  • Execution oriented roadmap (internal)
  • Customer, partner, or investor-facing roadmaps

Based on mutually agreed upon objectives, we make budget recommendations that align to resourcing plans, establish regular reviews to ensure timely delivery of products (e.g. sprint and design reviews), and communicate with leadership regularly to review and ensure alignment. Lastly, we act as an ambassador between leadership, development teams, and contractors while products are developed. 

  • Software and API Development
  • Web and Mobile App
  • Automation and Orchestration
  • Budget Assessment
  • Infrastucture recommendations
  • Resourcing Recommendations
  • User Research and UX Design

Product & Engineering Team Building

We help clients build productive, accountable hybrid and/or dedicated development teams that deliver results — not just features. We evaluate existing resources execution and performance based on current business objectives and product roadmap. Our recommendations are always formulated to optimize resources based on cost, speed, efficiency and throughput.

  • Hybrid workforce approaches
  • On shore or offshore
  • Managed in house or outsourced
  • Multinational team building
  • Coaching and mentoring
  • Culture stimulation
