API

API programming

Most large social channels have an application programming interface, or API, that allows developers to interact with the data contained in them.  This applies to Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Youtube and many more.

The same applies to mapping systems.  Google maps and Bing both have very advanced APIs that can be implemented to create amazing bespoke applications that integrate various technologies.

UKDK2 have created their own applications that integrate with these APIs, both social channels and geospatial mapping tools.

We are currently working on two applications that will be publicly  for social and geospatial customers.

Project management

Project management of offshore teams

The idea of dealing with teams in different countries may seem exciting at first, but a project can soon get bogged down with complications in understanding and getting a solution that complies with the requirement.

We accelerate the process by creating requirements specifications, and tracking resource, time, tasks and money using project plans.

The  preferred method of UKDK2  is to create a relatively complete requirements document at the beginning of the project, and then work in an agile, iterative manner with the suppliers and the customers to fulfil the requirement.  Our deep technological background and business skills allow us to talk to all parties in a language that they understand.

CMS - Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal

Content management systems

No single technology fits with all businesses.  It depends if databases are required, or online payments need to be taken, but generally, content management systems, or CMS, are a good match for most companies.

They allow business users to take more control of their own content and it means that every change to the website, for example, doesn’t require contacting a technical person.

UKDK2 can advise you on the best technology and system to use.  We can help draw the line between technical and business requirements and we can help optimize the content for search engines, and even more importantly, the viewing audience.

Software and IT consulting

IT and software consulting

Solution architecture is vital for a modern business.  This means that although an individual tool or application may solve an individual need or requirement, it is vital that alll the pieces in your technological jigsaw fit together as best as is possible.

UKDK2 can advise on technologies, provide audits on your applications and technologies, and provide presentations that are meaningful to business and technical audiences.

When we provide any of our services, we always make sure that technology is considered and we can advise the customer with any questions concerning software.
