Database Optimisation to Reduce Costs
ClickMasters delivers database optimisation with the commercial outcome as the design constraint: the cost reduction target is quantified, the payback period calculated, and the savings measured from day one not estimated in the final report.
Approach
The ClickMasters Approach
The ClickMasters Approach
Database Optimisation with a cost reduction goal requires identifying the specific costs that the investment will address, quantifying those costs accurately, and designing the solution to maximise the cost reduction per dollar invested. ClickMasters approaches cost-reduction database optimisation engagements with a rigorous ROI framework the cost reduction target is defined and quantified before the project begins, and the actual cost reduction is measured after launch. Most software development engagements are scoped around features and timelines, not commercial outcomes. The question 'when will this be delivered?' is asked more often than 'what revenue or cost impact will this produce?' ClickMasters inverts this: the commercial outcome is defined and quantified first, the technical scope is derived second, and the analytics to measure the outcome are instrumented before the first feature is released. This is not how most agencies work it is how ClickMasters works.
How Software Reduces Costs The Four Cost Reduction Mechanisms
Software reduces costs through four mechanisms: process automation (replacing manual, repetitive work with automated processes the most common and fastest-payback software cost reduction), infrastructure optimisation (replacing over-provisioned or inefficiently architected IT infrastructure with right-sized, auto-scaling cloud infrastructure reduces monthly infrastructure cost by 20-60%), headcount efficiency (software that enables a team to do more with the same headcount the revenue scalability that is the true source of margin expansion for software businesses), and error and rework reduction (software that eliminates the class of errors that produce costly rework production bugs, data entry errors, miscommunicated requirements reduces the operational cost of quality). ClickMasters models the cost reduction ROI before every cost-focused engagement and measures actual savings against projections.
