Philosophy



Philosophy - no-nonsense professionalism...

To provide world-class open source data management solutions.

We will do this through long-term customer partnerships, investment in our people, no-nonsense professionalism, dedication to quality and technical excellence.

And what does that 'mission mouthful' really mean in practical terms?

  • A genuine passion for providing genuine solutions to our customers
  • Good people - rigorous recruitment, induction and training
  • Flexibility in roles and resourcing
  • A culture of real commitment to quality
  • Open estimating, open pricing
  • Long term customer relationships
  • Team support

"Trust me, I’m an IT expert…"

Remember the Y2K debacle? The dot-com boom and bust? Failed business process re-engineering projects? --- all have contributed to a distrust of IT and its early claims of panacea. The days of the annual green field rewrite are over, and 'big bang' enterprise-wide ERP implementations have a patchy track record.

"The answer is (always) in the next release..."

The current global economic climate and the subsequent budget lockdown has meant that industry is being extremely cautious in its IT spend, choosing either to hang on to inadequate systems or to rejuvenate old systems, 'cooking with leftovers' to provide essential functional enhancements. Yet the demands on IT to deliver more for less are relentless...

Nowadays, BigCo Plc is a mature purchaser of information technology and related services. It recognises the value of open source in the data centre, knows better what is possible and what it needs from information technology, and it recognises quality service providers. To maintain a competitive advantage in today's markets, business needs rapid, low-risk return on investment (ROI) from historic and future IT spend.

The Luminary approach? – no-nonsense professionalism.
