Quodigi supports companies as an independent partner, in the path of affirmation in the digital ecosystem
Methodology
The quality of the working method as a prerequisite for results
We are constantly refining our methodologies to respond to the different needs of clients and the evolution of technologies and markets. We implement digital projects and solutions by applying three main ways of working:
Turnkey
The "turnkey" approach is applicable exclusively to projects characterized by circumscribed objectives, to the construction of "digital products" or to the realization of studies, analyses and assessments. It is not compatible, therefore, with business consulting and management consulting.
Once the timescales, specifications and outputs of the turnkey project have been agreed, Quodigi works autonomously, limiting its contacts with the customer to the exchange of information and the resolution of any emerging problems, which were initially unforeseeable.
Quodigi ensures the conformity, quality and timeliness of the outputs, while the outcomes are the sole responsibility of the client.
The possible training of the professional figures identified by the Customer can be foreseen, both in a position of accompaniment during the project, and in special sessions following the delivery of the deliverables.
Structured interaction
When the digital project has a transversal impact on the company and is characterized by articulated and challenging objectives, Quodigi works in close interaction with the client company, not only in the work setting phases, but also at an operational level.
This interaction is based on a punctual and formalized Work Plan, adopting Project Management methodologies appropriate to the level of complexity of the project and the type of opportunities involved.
One or more working groups may be set up according to the needs of the company management.
In projects involving Planned Interaction, Quodigi ensures compliance, quality and timeliness of both outputs and outcomes.
Vocational training is always provided on the job and can be further developed, at all levels, both during the course of the project and after its completion.
Open methodologies
The most ambitious and challenging business projects are generally characterized by high levels of complexity, uncertainty and indeterminacy. These include, for example, the introduction of radical technological innovations, the launch of new businesses, the reorientation of corporate culture and paradigms in a "digital" sense.
When dealing with projects of this type, the strict ex ante programming and operational planning of activities show all their limits, setting constraints and obligatory steps that can become real obstacles to the achievement of the final objectives.
Open working methods and Event oriented allow instead to constantly adapt the resources, activities and priorities of the project to the evolution of the context and to the emergence of unforeseen events, latent problems and also opportunities not initially known.
Therefore, Quodigi recommends the adoption of open methodologies and Event orientedbased on the logic of the Complexity management and theAgile managementwith the aim of maximizing the final result, employing the company's resources in the best possible way and exploiting emerging opportunities.
It is an approach that requires a high quality of interaction between the consultancy and the Client, through the establishment of a motivated and qualified working group that can rely on a strong commitment of the top management.
With the development of "open projects" also the possible training of human resources takes on a special value, strongly focused on empowerment and self-realization, as well as functional to the knowledge management objectives of the company.
Each design approach corresponds to specific methods of interaction and operational collaboration between Quodigi and the Client, from the most structured and binding to the most open and creative.
Managing uncertainty and complexity
The design approach to be adopted is defined on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the Client's history, characteristics and preferences, as well as the level of uncertainty of the competitive environment and the level of complexity of the objectives to be achieved.
Once defined and shared, the Digital Project is developed according to the specific operating procedures shared with the Customer and formalized in the contractual agreement, which also establishes precise moments of verification of the progress of the work
In relation to the type of digital project Quodigi applies specific team building and working group management techniques, both to support the motivation of those directly involved and to maximize their effectiveness. For the same reasons we always recommend a strong and explicit commitment on the part of top management.
Any training activity is carried out by minimising the impact on current company activities and favouring, where possible, on-the-job training.
A collaboration model for Digital Project success and business growth
All projects entrusted to Quodigi can be integrated with the training of personnel or company management, with the aim of contributing to the development of digital skills and culture.
Both digital projects and related training can be conceived and implemented by Quodigi in such a way as to enable the customer to acquire all the facilities and public funding available, both interest and non-refundable.
We pay the utmost attention to the enhancement and optimization of the resources employed (economic, but not only), in the broader corporate interest and not only in the service of the Digital Project entrusted to us.
For its services, Quodigi is always willing to evaluate forms of remuneration linked to the success and tangible results of the digital project developed for the customer ("success fee" agreements).
Each digital project developed in true partnership with the customer represents, for Quodigi, an opportunity for cultural exchange and human and professional growth.
