Custom Technology Solutions

A customized technology solution can be created to address your specific business objectives. This is often the best approach for a company to achieve a positive ROI on software and allows the solution to fit perfectly into established business processes. An off-the- shelf solution may seem like the right choice in the short term, but there can be significant costs associated with the need to change your business processes to work with a generic software product. Efficiency Lab works closely with clients to identify the key metrics needed to ensure a technology project is a success. Our goal is to create solutions that improve efficiencies, reduces costs, and ultimately pay for themselves.

Augmented Reality

This cutting-edge technology is changing the way businesses and utilities manage the many tasks that are critical to their success. Augmented Reality (AR) systems are rapidly growing in popularity due to their ability to place important information onto real world objects. There are limitless possibilities with this rapidly evolving technology. Efficiency Lab can work with your requirements to created detailed training programs, hands-free inspection tools, and AR presentation materials that will amaze your audience. Contact Efficiency Lab today to schedule a demo and conversation on this incredible technology.

Process Automation

There are many business processes that can and should be automated so that the people performing those tasks can be freed up to focus on more important work. Over time, long and detailed processes tend to emerge within a company that can often be reduced to fewer and simpler steps with the help of custom software. Efficiency Lab looks for processes that can be automated and designs the tools to handle the work and verify the results.

APIs

Many people think of software as the screens we see, the buttons we press, and the reports that are produced. This is all correct, but there are many other ways that software and systems can communicate and process information. Software is much faster at providing and exchanging information when web services or API’s (Application Programming Interface) are involved in the process. Efficiency Lab will identify areas where a web service may provide faster access to information, or many times it is possible to build a web service that removes the person from the equation entirely. How much time could be saved if your critical business data was available to other systems through an API instead of someone having to go and physically run that report each time it is needed? Contact Efficiency Lab today to see where APIs and web services can improve your performance.

Integrate Enterprise Systems

Many companies are dependent on multiple enterprise systems, but these systems may not speak to each other which can result in too much time spent formatting and migrating data. If anyone in your organization is responsible for entering the same data into multiple systems, then you need a custom integration. Efficiency Lab will perform an analysis of your enterprise systems and make recommendations based on their capabilities. Let’s make sure your critical systems are communicating as efficiently as possible.

Replace Legacy Systems

Many companies rely on systems that are outdated but are still being used because they are critical to daily operations. These legacy systems are often known to waste time and resources but tend to live on because no one is sure exactly how it works or how to replace it. Efficiency Lab works with its customers to understand how these legacy systems are used and designs improvements or total replacements. Don’t let old technology define your business operations. Create a modern solution that improves efficiency and workflow instead of continuing to pour time into outdated software.

Data Management and Analytics

Making decisions in today’s business world requires data, but there’s much more to it than that. The amount of data available to companies is constantly increasing and it is critical to have a data management plan so that your company can leverage this valuable resource. Efficiency Lab will design a system that will scale as your data grows. Intuitive data dashboards and analytics are important tools for understanding your data and making the right business decisions.

Workflow Improvements

It’s easy for a workflow to get too complicated over time. New steps are added to a process for a legitimate business need, but old steps never seem to be reviewed or retired. Efficiency Lab works with clients to analyze existing workflows and find areas to simplify. Some steps may be automated with software while others may no longer be needed at all. A workflow with unnecessary steps is a common way that companies can waste valuable time and resources. Let’s make sure your workflows are focused on the critical path and that the correct software solution is in place to ensure your business success.
