Cadent can use the extensive backgrounds of its consultants (both in-house and third party) to assist new and growing high tech companies to craft architectures which achieve your desired requirements for both now, and for the future.
We can do extensive research for you:
- Research all avenues of a prosposed technology or product.
- Farm the internet for open source building blocks and tools to compliment a desired direction.
- Do a competitive technical analysis.
We can analyze your ideas and architecture and recommend possible future avenues. This includes outlining what tools and building blocks you need to incorporate now so these avenues remain open to you at minimal effort/cost in the future.
We can audit your existing architecture to find areas of possible optimization. We can:
- Recommend better use of tools/techniques.
- Recommend skillset lists to assist HR hiring processes.
- Recommend hardware/Software upgrades.
- Isolate areas to give the biggest improvement for a given amount of effort.
- Recommend performance enhancements.
- Recommend partnerships and liaisons.
For investors (Venture Capitalists and Angels), we can:
- Do a technical due-diligence analysis to determine if a technology has been properly thought out and planned for (i.e. is not just a marketing plan).
- Work with Intellectual Property (IP) lawyers (ours or yours) to do an analysis of what can, and what cannot, be patented and to help ensure the proper use of open source software/tools.
- Do a technical background check on entrepreneurs: 20 years of collective experience is not that impressive if it is spread over 5 people and includes time in university Co-op programs. We can get to the bottom of technical competence claims.
