Testimonials

We have been delighted to find SSTC to be able to give counsel and advice on many aspects of our application as well as the applications with which we interact.  Nigel's knowledge of the core processes we represent and how they are managed has proved invaluable. 

We engaged SSTC to head up our analytics transformation. We have many analytics teams in different areas of the business, each with their own expertise and heritage. We now have some common identity as a group, and are pooling expertise against the very real challenges we face as a National Health Service. 

We now have a better understanding of the analytics technologies we have, and an understanding of the path forward. 

SSTC has helped solve some real analytics challenges, demonstrating how data science can be brought to bear for evidence based decision making and prioritizing daily work. SSTC has connected us with centers of expertise in academia, industry and other national institutions to ensure that we can see the best of what is beyond our walls. 

SSTC has demonstrated not only a knowledge of executive decision making and the analytics needed to support it, but the broad set of business systems and architecture that lie underneath.  We feel we have both counsel for our architectural decisions and a comrade in arms at the front line of deployment. 

"I engaged SSTC to help me evaluate a company in the cyber security space. Within a very short call, we had uncovered the core of what the business did, how it operated, understood some of its competitive landscape and even some adjacent markets that had not yet been considered.  Nigel was able to seamlessly move between the technical and the commercial, giving me a much better understanding of the risks and potential of the company". 

"We engaged SSTC to help us improve our information security posture.  Nigel was able to give perspectives of a Chief Information Security  Officer and specifically the Education Technology industry.  He also brought expertise and insight of frameworks designed for small businesses.  It helped us move through the process quickly but still examining everything thoroughly as we moved.  We have ended the process better prepared for the world we find ourselves operating in.". 

We engaged Nigel to help us rethink our service delivery. As a company, we had reoriented ourselves toward Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL).  We are trying to make the comfort, safety and convenience of residents a service. We aimed to make the reliability and availability of our services on par with the best software providers. To this end, we engaged someone who came with deep knowledge of that industry, although they very quickly demonstrated an understanding of our business and what our objectives are. Nigel ran us through strategy development, process development, transition and monitoring in a repeatable process that we have the confidence to repeat whenever we need. We also got to see the business through fresh eyes and with a fresh perspective that has helped us see what we already do very well. 

Complex problem solving requires expertise from a wide variety of specialist areas. To be able to call on the help of Nigel King with 25 years' experience as a Tech Executive in Silicon Valley … has been invaluable to keep driving the business forward and future-proofing ourselves. It's vital to be able to surround yourself with experts who are able to dissect the challenge quicky and not only understand the technical challenge, but also the business goal,and the team have been incredible from taking a concept to delivery.”

We engaged Nigel from SSTC to work on a website redesign issue, but it became clear that the skills at hand extended right from psychometric testing of the user journey right the way into automating the code inspection at the other end; done with lightning speed so that you can see results and rev ideas without it burning through months in deliberation.

Working with Nigel and the team allowed us to frame our problem better.  The team could bring expertise from aligned industries that allowed us to ask tougher, more appropriate questions. 

"SSTC could see the problems and bottlenecks of the existing process.  The proposals for changes in process to take advantage of the information we were already capturing, removed pressure from key resources , and reduced the risk of human error."

"Analysis from SSTC went from casual conversation to a Team Management Application very quickly. It helped me better understand the application that I was asking for."
