Ideation

Our business model workshops and working sessions provide a structured approach and common language for evaluating new ideas.

Design

We partner with you to test and validate product concepts using rapid prototyping and other lean product development principles.

Implementation

We use an agile and user centric approach to development, ensuring not only a well built system, but one users will actually adopt!


LeanCog is a strategy and technology consulting firm that helps firms innovate faster and reduce the risk around
building new products and technology solutions. We use an iterative, hypothesis driven approach to test key risks early and partner with you to identify and build the right solution. Whether developing a customer facing product or internal enterprise system, we offer a suite of services that help guide you from concept to implementation.

"LeanCog invigorated our product development process with its feedback-driven, test-based methodology... Their blend of strategic knowledge and technical expertise helped us seamlessly transition from product concept to workable solution. Their work has permeated into other areas of the organization and helped us win new business. This was the best money I've spent on rapidly prototyping a new product concept."
Daniel RichVice President / Sr. Business Leader, Strategy & New Product Development, MasterCard
“LeanCog did an excellent job at understanding the comprehensive needs of the finished platform, before starting the project. They kept track of so many small details during the development which allowed us to stay in production while our new Salesforce platform was being rolled out in phases.”
Chris SattlerPresident, Plant. Smart Energy Solutions

CASE STUDIES

Customer Discovery to Save the Planet

Our expertise is in conservation science and planning and as such we did not have a good method for evaluating opportunities and defining market strategy. We hired LeanCog to help.

Partner Centric Design Puts Solar on Rooftops

BrightGrid's core competency is solar and lease finance, not enterprise software strategy and architecture.  LeanCog's methodology provided end to end solution which kept our users' needs in focus.
