Technical Discovery

Technical Discovery is a critical process designed to mitigate risks and enhance efficiency in complex digital projects. By addressing potential technical issues upfront, a good Technical Discovery establishes a rock-solid foundation for creating innovative digital products.

Building Seamless Digital Foundations

At Toru Digital, we dive deep into your existing systems, processes, and team structures to help you understand your current infrastructure, identify potential integration challenges, and map out a clear path to a seamless, high-performing digital solution. This approach is evident in the Diversey SDS Case Study, where a tailored technical discovery process ensured seamless integration with existing infrastructure.

By thoroughly analysing your current setup and project requirements, we can make informed decisions that optimise your development process. Our work on the Wiggin Case Study demonstrates how meticulous technical planning can lead to innovative compliance solutions built on robust technical foundations.

As digital ecosystems become more complex, innovative approaches such as AI-powered technology assessments, interactive stakeholder workshops, and advanced system mapping techniques enhance the discovery process. For further insight, The Benefits of Building a Custom DAM System highlights the value of technical discovery in delivering scalable, efficient solutions tailored to unique organisational needs.

This approach not only minimises risks but also ensures that your project is built on a solid foundation, paving the way for successful implementation and long-term scalability.

Laying the Groundwork for Scalable Solutions

Design:

We begin by thoroughly understanding the project goals and mapping out technical requirements. This is followed by a series of remote meetings with the client's development, IT, and infrastructure teams to gather information about existing systems, API documentation, and vendor requirements.

Build:

Based on the gathered information, we construct a comprehensive map of potential technologies and develop a rough blueprint of the proposed system. We then present this blueprint to the client's IT and infrastructure teams, addressing any questions or issues that arise during the collaborative discussion.

Optimise:

Through iterative collaboration, we refine the proposed system until we reach a solution that satisfies both our standards and the client's needs. Once we've achieved consensus on a workable system, we can then move the project into production.

The Benefits of Technical Discovery

  • Risk Reduction: Minimises the chance of creating solutions incompatible with existing infrastructure or company structure.
  • Resource Efficiency: Leverages existing resources instead of building everything from scratch.
  • Innovation: Establishes a strong technical base, allowing for more creative and collaborative development.
  • Improved Delivery: Addresses potential issues early, leading to smoother project execution and accurate timeframes and costs.
  • Aligned Understanding: Ensures all stakeholders are on the same page regarding project goals and technical requirements.
