Picture
9 Knots has been selected as the technology partner for a unique service for the SME market in both the Netherlands and the UK.

HR-Serious is a online Human Resources platform for owners of small business that have no in-house HR expertise. They can maintain their own employee files and manage their HR activities (such as absence, holidays, training and appraisals). Advanced business rules will alert the user of employee files that require attention.
Users have direct access to a pool of HR Experts that can advise them on all HR legal matters. ​Additional features are a feed of relevant HR news and offers of HR related services (such as payroll, insurances).

​This unique service is scheduled for launch in the Netherlands in March 2017.



9 Knots and the Olympic Games In Numbers

8/8/2016

​After the 2016 Summer Olympics were officially opened in Rio de Janeiro on Friday, competitors from around the world will be spending the next two weeks in Brazil attempting to turn their years of training into a highly coveted Olympic medal.
 
With our CaseMaster® systems used throughout the world, it got us thinking about how “the greatest show on Earth” compares to the specialist CRM solutions we currently provide for our clients…

  • One of our smallest and newest systems currently runs 270 customer accounts—roughly the same number of athletes competing for Russia over the next fortnight (287).
  • On the other hand, one of our largest systems, used by a market leader in the welfare-to-work industry, has over 21 times as many customer accounts (242,000+) as the total number of athletes competing in Rio (11,491).
  • More nations than ever before will be represented at this year’s Olympic Games (208) and our systems are currently used in many of them: some of our systems have a global user-base whilst we have also provided solutions for clients not only here in Great Britain but everywhere from India and Ireland to Saudi Arabia and the Netherlands.
 
The flexibility of our systems is all thanks to the innovative CaseMaster® platform on which they are developed, allowing our CRM solutions to be almost as diverse as the Olympics themselves!
 
We are sure that, like us, you will enjoy watching the 2016 Olympic Games and we wish the best of luck to all athletes competing in Rio.

Fixed-price / scope-tolerant - Why is this important?

17/2/2016

 
'Scope creep' is an IT term to describe changes in requirements after the development of software has started.

Scope creep is very common and happens in almost every project. It is a result of new insights, latest market developments and the fact that software is rather abstract until the development is completed. Scope creep frustrates client and IT supplier alike.

Most fixed-price projects are also fixed-scope projects: the clients ends up with the software which was agreed at the time; not the software that is needed now!
Picture
In time-materials projects each change in scope will result in higher costs. Soon the client will stop raising changes (and thus not get the software that is needed now) or the increase in costs will blow the business case out of the water.

​At 9 Knots we take a unique approach to software. We call it 'fixed-price / scope-tolerant'. Instead of fighting scope creep tooth and nail, we have developed a methodology to absorb changes in scope without breaking our fixed-price promise. Fixed-price / scope-tolerant. Now you know why this is so important.
