Our Commitment

I.T. Solutions that Minimise Your Exposure to Risk

Choosing the wrong I.T. solution could be the most costly mistake you make this year…

I.T. can involve expensive skill-sets, even more expensive hardware and considerable long-term commitments. Choosing the wrong solution or a provider who can't deliver on their promises could cost you far more than you realise. That's why kilobytes per second or lines of code do not measure our most important technology measures. We measure our projects on deliverables. Our methodology is firmly focused on the same measures you use to evaluate projects ROI, EBIT and others. At the end of the day, our goal is simple - to make sure that your I.T. investment succeeds in making your business more profitable and productive. We do that by using proven processes, hard won experience and project management skills to deliver projects on time and on budget. At the completion of every project, Rubicon undertakes an honest assessment of our work in order to continually develop the quality and range of services offered to clients. It's what separates us from many other companies in the I.T. field.

Before we invest a dollar of your money into technology we do our own cost benefit analysis. Businesses aren't there for us to pioneer unproven technologies. To us; "it's not a $50,000 piece of software to play with… It's a million dollars in sales the business has to get, to buy it in the first place". We are not I.T. managers - we are a company that delivers profitable and cost effective commercial solutions to our clients. We are in the business of building bridges that connect you better with your customers, stakeholders and suppliers. Building something that succeeds only in getting halfway across the river isn't a bridge; it's just an expensive pier.

Fully integrated business solutions

Rubicon believes in the smarter use of your resources by creating solutions that connect and integrate business processes, information and people.

• Solutions that are built using your existing infrastructure so that you have the ability to add new functions quickly without completely overhauling your existing assets.
• Solutions that can support new devices and information that taps into your core business and strategies.
• Solutions that can grow as your business grows. Systems and solutions that can evolve.
• Solutions those are fully scaleable to support a growing population of users.
• Systems that can handle frequent changes.
• Solutions those are dedicated, robust, reliable, secure and manageable.
• Systems that let you concentrate on your core business, not distracting I.T. issues.

A word about emerging technologies

Too often the I.T. community is swept up in the hype of some new technology. Investment in technology necessarily involves risk and cost. In the average I.T. project, up to 50% of your efforts can be wasted. The trouble is that many businesses don't know which 50% it is. Inefficiencies like this only add to overheads and reduced performance. Because of this, Rubicon applies fundamental business analysis to evaluate emerging technologies and their fit to your business and overall business strategy. Our approach is to identify those technologies that genuinely enable you to leverage and enhance your business systems and create new revenue potentials and more cost-effective ways of doing business.

Why Rubicon are not aligned to any one technology or supplier

Rubicon operates across technology groups to ensure we leverage existing systems. We pick the best available technology for you to suit your circumstances. Rubicon work with top tier I.T. suppliers and Telco's to develop superior solutions. Rubicon's philosophy is grounded by the belief that no one technology or solution provider can supply a complete answer to your technical I.T. requirements. For this reason we always choose the application, which we regard as the "best of breed" for your business - it means that trying to stretch an application into areas it was never intended doesn't hamper us. Our single-minded focus is that if it doesn't suit your business it doesn't get included in the spec.
