Engagement

We start our project together by identifying the key stakeholders and composing the ideal team to work on your project.

Project Definition

We work with you to define, in clear terms, what your business goals are. What quantifiably defines success for your project? Who are you trying to reach? What does your system need to do? What problems are we trying to solve? What deliverables best detail an appropriate solution?

Research & Development

Our team of experts will collect the information necessary to provide informed recommendations regarding technology, architecture, functionality, and project scope.

Hands-on walkthrough

Oftentimes, both parties benefit from a walkthrough of your current business processes with the individuals responsible for conducting them. Frequently, we can provide insight into potential new efficiencies as a part of this process.

Proof-of-concept

Depending on your needs, we may produce a technical proof-of-concept. This helps us to retire risk early in the process by ensuring that a solution is possible, even when innovative, novel concepts are involved.

Project Engineering

Based on the results of the previous steps, our engineering team will write a specification for the subsequent development of the proposed solution, including the recommended technology stack, budgetary information, and timeline.

“Working with Lanex has been a true partnership. They helped the Milwaukee Press Club strengthen our website and events and membership module in a way that reflects both our mission and the realities of how our organization operates. The team is thoughtful and solution-oriented, understanding when a custom solution is worth the investment and when a standard option will serve us just as well. They are also consistently available when we need them, with an ability to quickly triage the most important need and help us move forward with clarity.”

— Lexie DeBlitz, President, Milwaukee Press Club
