Why Gecko Company?
Our philosophy.
We believe in Lean, Agile, data-driven software development, based on timeless principles, made by internationally sourced, centrally managed Development teams. This formula delivers quality IT Solutions at a reduced investment, which contributes to a significantly higher return on investment.
To develop your business successfully in the modern world, you need to be able to respond to market trends and changing circumstances, faster than your competition. You need to offer a product or service that is appealing to the latest (sometimes even latent) needs of your end customer.
To achieve this, 3 proven integrations into your business are key:
1) Lean Six Sigma: the worldwide proven-successful ideology for process optimization & project management - to identify and eliminate all types of 'inefficiencies' in all your processes; to increase quality and lower total cost.
2) Agile: the worldwide proven-successful Software and Product Development & Project Management - to improve time-to-market and embrace a continuous change of circumstances, and even use them to your strategical competitive advantage.
3) DevOps: the worldwide proven-successful ideology for optimizing the balance between Software Engineering and Hardware Engineering.
4) Cultivate timeless principles in your company - such as sincerity, honesty, being and acting reasonably, listening carefully before speaking, protecting your team, creating a safe work environment, where brilliant minds can bloom, and many more...
This establishes an excellent reputation and goodwill, which is an essential and unexpendable asset.
The key elements to continuously keeping the competitive edge:
Agile.
The way to stay ahead of competition.
What is Agile?
Agile is an iterative approach to project management and product development that helps teams deliver value to their customers faster and with fewer headaches. Instead of betting everything on a "big bang" launch, an agile team delivers work in small, but consumable, increments. Requirements, plans, and results are evaluated continuously so teams have a natural mechanism for responding to change quickly.
transcription from Martin Suntinger | atlassian.com
Process optimization from both the current and the future perspective.
Lean Six Sigma is a synergized managerial concept of Lean and Six Sigma. Lean traditionally focuses on eliminating the eight kinds of waste ("Muda"), and Six Sigma focuses on improving process output quality by identifying and removing the causes of defects (errors) and minimizing variability in (manufacturing and business) processes.
Lean Six Sigma uses the DMAIC phases (see below) similar to that of Six Sigma. The five phases used in Lean Six Sigma aim to identify the root cause of inefficiencies and work with any process, product, or service that has a large amount of data or measurable characteristics available.
Our divisions.
Gecko | Software Development
Most strategic business improvements are "wheel barreled" by a mix of standardized and tailor-made IT Solutions.
Gecko Company sources Developers internationally, each with their own specialism, while managing project teams centrally from Gecko HQ, which results in affordable, quality IT Solutions.
We are at an incredible summit of technology. IT has taken the number one place in most of our lives. Therefore many companies are offering either standardized software packages for a range of business related work and/or tailor made software.
What differentiates Gecko Company from the "grey mass" is that we think through everything from the beginning, and we work with strong, worldwide-successful
Agile Scrum & DevOps ideologies and methodologies,
so you will get a "future proof" and low-maintenance platform to your command, that does exactly what you expect it to do. Not more, not less (in Agile terminology: the Minimum Viable Product). That way it adds maximum value to your organization at minimum cost.
Our philosophy from a DevOps point of view is, that long before we start coding, we determine the most, suitable way of data architecture. For example: will it be a so-called "Monolith" piece of software (suitable for relatively simple straightforward apps), or are we going to apply the MicroServices concept, using Kubernetes methodologies (suitable for more complex, multi-service apps, intended to be used and maintained over a longer term)?
Also from a DevOps point of view, we need to address hardware resources for the software code and functionalities upfront.
For example: will your organization use their in-house server architecture? Or are we going to deploy outsourced Scalable Cloud Server solutions? Or a mix?
Our Consultants and Interim Managers are experienced in these fields and can provide you with the best, tailor-made proposals.
Gecko | Data Research & Analysis
The solid foundation of any fruitful strategy.
Next to relevant data your company possesses already, we have subscriptions and on-demand access to many worldwide databases in countless industries. These databases are filled and kept up-to-date by data researchers all over the world.
In the analysis phase, we mainly use Lean Six Sigma methodologies to identify root causes of inefficiencies and thereby optimize your processes.
Also in some cases, data sets & analysis can be simply copy-pasted from one business to another, which saves you enormously in cost, but also time spent by your employees. They will bring in more revenue by focusing on their priority and expertise, with the data tools, that make them more effective and efficient.
