In his book “Thank you for being late – The Optimist Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations”, Thomas Friedman explains a concept that is so obvious but I have never really contemplated or related it to how we interact with our clients. That is, technology business applications are often about removing complexity, or making complexity invisible. Take UBER or Lyft or Amazon’s one click check out as examples. Finding a cab versus getting an Uber is like night and day simpler for the user – all the complexities are behind the scenes. Buying this book on Amazon in one click and getting it tomorrow is amazingly simple. How much easier are we making our interactions with clients? How can we remove some of the complexity for our clients? Something to think about.

Client Interractions, Client Relationships

Ann Banning - Wright

CLIENT:	Large Engineering Firm
CHALLENGE:	Extend and secure new contracts in the area of Data Centers for telecommunication, finance and media industries.
RESEARCH:	Designed face-to-face interviews that reveal the challenges and the breakdowns that cause the most pain in data centers.
DISCOVERY OF UNTAPPED POTENTIAL:	Identified “downtime” as the most critical concern evidenced by a financial institution losing $260 million dollars a minute when their check processing centers went off line. A variety of well- intentioned vendors, designers, departments and process operators were responsible for getting back online but we discovered they were often working independently in silo’s – a cumbersome and inefficient response to an expensive problem.
HARNESS POTENTIAL:	Plucked individuals from across departments and disciplines to assemble a team dedicated to “Collaborative Design and Operations for Data Center Uptime. Newly formed team collaboratively built and marketed a unique practice promising result. Data Center Uptime Named the Offer > OnlinEnivronments. Specified all the moving parts of the OnlineEnvironments Design Solution and the cost benefit. Geography of Facility – Architecture and Engineering of Facility – IT Infrastructure and Facilities Management – Process Design and Outage Prevention Management
RESULTS:	Out-of-the-gate this untapped potential accelerated growth and generated 14million dollars of new revenue. This success demonstrates how a distinctive solution accelerates a company’s capacity to become market leaders, to choose their clients and to charge more for it. The optimum result of working with Bright Operations is the creation of a structural and operational eco-system that is sustainable over time, producing preferred transactions and smart market extensions over and over again. In other words, “Wow, we’ve done it again!”
