Information Technology solutions are per definition complex:

• Translation of real-world concepts into IT objects
• Fulfillment of insititutional requirements
• Interaction with people
• Continuous change

History has shown that it is possible to manage this complexity by:

• Applying a good development process
  
  • Incremental development
    
  • Rapid prototyping
  • Reuse of solutions
    
  • Applying domain expertise
• Creating a great design
  • Creating coherent structural and behavioral views
  • Applying a design process
  • Being creative
    

It is still astonishingly rare to find well-designed IT solutions:

• More than half of IT projects fail
  
• IT projects are 20 times more likely to run out of control compared to other business projects
  
• This trend has increased over recent years

This is mainly due to:

• Lack of understanding the essential IT complexity
  
• No proper development process is applied
  
• Insufficient focus is put on design
  
• Great designers are rare
  

Designed-IT aims to address this gap within the market; we aim to provide Information Technology solutions and intend to distinguish ourselves by focusing on the solution’s design – as the company name itself indicates.
