We help clients across the lifecycle of technology decisions:

Strategy & Roadmap

I’ve heard about Technology X and the benefits it can provide. What are the steps I need to take to implement it effectively, and in what order? How do I measure effectiveness?

In developing a technology strategy, Nemertes works closely with our clients to understand their unique challenges and goals. Then we develop a technology strategy that includes:

  • Clear Recommendations—We recommend organizational and operational practices for effectively leveraging technology.

  • Risk Mitigation Strategies—We identify risks to success and provide mitigation strategies.
  • Technology Roadmaps—We provide detailed step-by-step blueprints for selecting and deploying technology.

Assessment & Selection

Which technology providers are the best fit for my requirements? What should my selection criteria be? What are the meaningful differences between providers?

Nemertes provides a framework for assessing technology against our clients’ unique requirements, including:
