Digital transformation made simple

We’re the world’s first tech special ops team. We don’t run projects, we run Bootcamps. These are fast, inter-disciplinary and focused on results. Which we then improve in a new Bootcamp.

Continuously improving your organisation will transform it.

So if you want a long-winded transformation strategy from a brand name consultancy look elsewhere. If you like your tech from IT men in grey suits that's not us. And we’re not creative glory-seekers selling you whizz bangs. We're “The A Team of Tech”.

What’s a Techdept Bootcamp?

A Bootcamp is a 6 stage checklist which starts with “why” and ends with a 1-page scorecard to measure improvement.

Each Bootcamp is made of a combination of:

  • Strategic Consultancy
  • User Experience & Interface Design
  • Custom Technology

This can be applied in infinite ways. For example, we create data driven organisations, prototype and scale digital products and boost the performance of web sites. 

What’s special about Techdept?

You know how techies are hard to work with? And consultants don't do the details? That's what we fix. We consult and we code. Hands-on, multi-skilled and focused on results.

We've made software since 2004. Our pet hate is all the BS you get in our industry. Get past the long buzzwords and you'll find a straightforward way to grow.

Improve. Based on what works. Get on a Techdept Bootcamp.

OUR WORK

Premier League: Digital service development
We helped clubs in the world's greatest football league better understand how to approach new tech. We're trialling a new digital platform to help excite and engage match day stewards.

BBC Children in Need: ‘How to run your charity like a Silicon Valley startup’
This was the name of our lean digital transformation strategy (written over 3 years ago) for the BBC's flagship charity. We built a fundraiser engagement platform, refined based on actionable metrics and data driven design. Visit the site 

Tidybrand: Keeping a global brand ‘Tidy’
We've made custom digital asset management platforms since 2004. Our product Tidybrand has this experience invested into it. Simplify how you manage your brand assets (because the world's biggest games publisher has).

World Wildlife Fund: Performance driven design
Using a Lean UX approach we worked with WWF UK to create their new website, employing a Scorecard to focus improvements in key areas. We created a living style guide for their internal teams and agencies, ensuring a consistent look and feel across all new WWF sites. Visit the site 

ICAP: Streamlining workflows
The ability to raise over £12m for charity on a single day means ICAP Charity Day attracts royalty and A-list celebrities across the globe. We created systems allowing charities to apply, right through to their selection and funding. We also designed the global comms campaign. Watch the video 

John Lewis: ‘Monty's Magical Toy Machine’
We made kids toys come to life as part of John Lewis's iconic Christmas campaign. This completely new AR experience was custom built using satellite imaging technology. Its impact was pure emotion (a lot of grown-ups had 'something in their eye'!). Watch the video
