Our philosophy is
simple.
We are committing to building organizational value. This requires a
long-term, strategic commitment to every company we acquire, invest in
or support with management consulting services. In practice, this has a
number of key dimensions.
Investing
in People
Although we
often provide direct management and operational support to the
companies we invest in or acquire, our goal is always to help these
companies become independent and self-sustaining as soon as possible.
This means investing in our employees’ professional
development, promoting from within and building human capacity within
the organization as a whole.
We also
strive to build an organizational culture that rewards excellence and
shared success. That means creating compensation plans that include
stock options, profit sharing and other incentives that convert
employees into highly motivated business owners.
Investing
in Systems
Thanks to our
domain expertise, business intelligence focus and software development
experience, we are experts in the operational systems and processes
used by companies in the Telecom and Banking. This enables us to
rapidly identify and implement process improvements to every facet of a
company’s operations, including its accounting, financial,
HR, network operations, communications, inventory, purchasing, sales
force automation, call center and enterprise resource planning systems.
Investing
in Distribution Channels
No company
can go it alone. At FunctionIT, we develop productive partnerships that
extend the reach and effectiveness of every company we serve, drawing
on decades of experiences forging distribution and technology-licensing
agreements with Fortune 500 companies across the globe.
In addition
to the US, we have particular expertise in Latin America. EMEA and the
Asia/Pacific regions, where we have worked closely with local
affiliates of large corporations as well as home-grown firms that offer
unique access to regional customers.
Investing
in Technology
At
FunctionIT, we are constantly evaluating new technologies that provide
the foundation for new industries and the future prospect of business
transformation. As software development professionals ourselves, we
understand the challenges of turning a vision into something that
provides tangible business value.
Consequently,
we work closely with each client company to instill sound product
management practices and the development systems and quality assurance
processes that produce products and services that consistently surprise
and delight customers.
