Frequently asked questions

How do you handle project timelines and deadlines?

At the start of the project, we establish an overarching timeline with key milestones. Regular sprint planning and review meetings ensure that we are consistently aligned with these milestones. During these meetings, we assess progress, address any challenges, and adjust our plan as needed to meet the deadlines.

What is your approach to a development project?

We use agile methodologies in our development projects and our approach is centred around flexibility and collaboration.

We begin with a comprehensive discovery phase, where we work closely with you to understand your goals, target audience, and functional requirements. This phase sets the foundation for the project.

Following this, we break down the project into smaller, manageable iterations or 'sprints.' Each sprint focuses on a specific set of features or functionalities, allowing for rapid development.

What is your process for developing a technical strategy?

Developing a technical strategy involves assessing current technology systems, understanding business objectives, identifying gaps or inefficiencies in current technology use, and creating a plan for technology development and integration that supports business goals.

What types of organizations can benefit from technical strategy services?

Any organization that relies on technology for its operations can benefit, regardless of its size or industry. This includes startups, small and medium enterprises, large corporations, non-profits, and government agencies.

How long does it take to develop and implement a technical strategy?

The timeframe varies based on the organization's size, complexity, and specific needs. It can range from a few weeks to several months for the initial strategy development, with ongoing adjustments and implementations over time.

What are the key areas of focus in a digital transformation programme?

We begin with an initial diagnostic of your business, which helps identify the key areas.

Typically, our focus is on key areas including:

  • Customer / user / stakeholder experience
  • Culture
  • Integrations and automation
  • Scalability, security and resilience
  • Cloud adoption
  • Data analytics and analysis
How does Distinction ensure the security and privacy of AI implementations?

Security and privacy are paramount in all our work, not just that involving AI.

We adhere to industry best practices and comply with relevant regulations like GDPR to ensure data protection.

Our solutions are designed with robust security measures, including data encryption, secure data storage, and regular security audits. We also implement strict access controls and data governance policies to safeguard your information and ensure that privacy is maintained throughout the AI implementation process.

Can AI be integrated into my existing business processes?

Sometimes.

We begin with an assessment of your current systems to identify integration points and opportunities.

Our team then designs a customised AI solution that aligns with your business objectives and integrates seamlessly with your existing infrastructure. We focus on minimal disruption, ensuring a smooth transition with training and support for your team to adapt to the new AI-enhanced processes.

What specific technologies and frameworks do you use?

We're agnostic. We use a range of modern technologies tailored to the project's needs, including:

  • Modern front-end technologies such as React, Vue, NextJS and Tailwind CSS
  • Leading backend technologies including .NET, Java and PHP
  • Native mobile development using Swift, React Native, Kotlin and Flutter
  • Scalable database services including Azure SQL, CosmosDB, MongoDB and others
  • Composable CMS platforms such as Kontent.ai, Sanity, Prismic and Payload CMS
  • Best of need DXP systems such as Umbraco, Kentico and WordPress
  • Codeless prototyping solutions such as Webflow and Retool

This enables us to choose the right technology stack that aligns with the project's goals and the long-term vision.
