Absence of sufficient technical resources internally
The absence of sufficient technical resources internally poses a significant challenge for organizations, especially in the rapidly evolving landscape of technology adoption. Gartner's 2022 global report found that talent shortage was the most significant barrier to the adoption of 64% of emerging technologies. This shortage impedes not just the implementation of new technologies but also innovation and growth. Without adequate technical resources, companies may struggle to keep pace with industry advancements, leading to missed opportunities and decreased competitiveness.
At TYMIQ, we understand the importance of having sufficient technical resources for successful project implementation. That's why we offer comprehensive solutions to address this issue.

Challenges of starting new projects
Even with clearly articulated and aligned objectives, project initiation can be daunting given the degree of complexity.
TYMIQ’s approach involves evaluating key complexity factors such as team size, domain and technical complexity, compliance, organizational distribution, and geographic factors (look at the scheme below). As these factors increase in complexity, they influence our team's way of working, allowing us to tailor our approach for optimal outcomes.

- Our project manager is involved in every stage of the project.
- We identify the right project methodology through a structured approach.
- We guarantee high responsibility and proactivity, providing support to your project even beyond the agreed scope.

The IT department or the technology aspect of the organization has become stagnant or inactive
At TYMIQ, we apply a personalized approach to each client, supporting them at every stage. Our goal is to enable stakeholders to focus on their core business activities without worrying about IT inefficiencies. We manage technology projects, ensuring gaps are closed and delivering successful outcomes. With expertise in proprietary frameworks, software support, reengineering, and legacy technologies like Delphi, MS Access, and VBA, we provide comprehensive solutions tailored to your needs.
Spending more time on maintenance and governance rather than focusing on innovation
Administering software patches and updates, along with overseeing ongoing technical projects, consumes valuable resources. Over time, this focus on maintenance can lead to stagnation, making it hard for the company to keep up with industry trends and competitors. Constant prioritizing immediate technical needs over long-term innovation can ultimately affect the company's market position and growth potential.
TYMIQ conducts thorough audits of your software to identify opportunities for transformation, making support and expansion more efficient. We immerse ourselves in your business to understand its unique needs, providing recommendations on what to remove, add, or modify. Our goal is to streamline your technology, enabling you to focus more on innovation and less on maintenance.
The issue of technical debt
Technical debt occurs when short-term solutions are implemented to address immediate issues or meet deadlines, without considering long-term consequences. This accumulation of temporary fixes leads to complexity, reduced system stability, and higher maintenance and development costs. While not exclusive to small companies, they can find it especially challenging when projects struggle to handle increased loads or require rapid feature implementation.
Technical debt accumulates as temporary solutions pile up, leading to increased complexity, decreased system stability, and higher maintenance and development costs. This problem is not unique to small companies but can be particularly challenging for them when their projects can no longer cope with increased loads or the need for rapid feature implementation.For small companies, this often means transitioning from a project to a product or adapting a successful business model that outgrows its technical solutions. TYMIQ specializes in these critiсal tasks. We offer comprehensive modernization, refactoring, and architectural complexity solutions to ensure your systems can handle scalability and long-term demands.

Book consultationFAQ in small business software development
Traditionally, companies were classified based on employee count and data storage capacity. However, with the rapid growth of organizations and the exponential increase in data management, our approach to categorizing companies has evolved accordingly.
1. Today, small-to-medium business (SMBs) typically rely on part-time staff to handle their data and IT needs. These individuals juggle various tasks, including managing backups, databases, networks, and technology purchases. With limited time—often less than 20 hours per month—outsourcing to third-party providers is a common solution for these organizations.
2. In small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SME), there are more full-time employees to manage data and IT infrastructure, however, these individuals typically have less expertise than IT gurus. The typical titles of these people are system administrator, network administrator, or IT manager.
3. In large enterprises, due to the complexity of their business model, there is typically a dedicated full-time IT staff with specialized expertise to manage specific applications or components of the IT infrastructure. This level of mastery is crucial for effective operations within a large enterprise.

Early in the planning stages, our team conducts a thorough needs analysis and defines business objectives. For that, we involve key stakeholders in the discussions and jointly efine the main goals, followed by detailed documentation of the required features and functionalities, which are then approved.
We define a clear scope, which is approved during the planning stage of a project and fixed in the contract, and then continuously monitored. In the event of potential development complexities or changes to requirements, the updated scope is discussed with the customer and revised through open communication for joint decision-making.
We manage changes through a formal change management process established at TYMIQ. This process includes impact analysis, stakeholders' approval, and updating project plans and timelines accordingly. Furthermore, following agile methodologies helps us manage changes more effectively.
In the event of conflicts, we resolve them through open communication, mediation by project managers, and, if necessary, escalation to higher management for resolution. At TYMIQ, we typically outline a predefined conflict resolution process in the contract.
At TYMIQ, we use NDAs, secure development practices, clear IP ownership agreements, and robust data protection measures to secure client’s proprietary information. All the security measures are clearly negotiated during the planning stage of a project and firmly outlined in the contract.
