3. POC - Proof of Concept Assessment

part of MondoWAYS Assessment

Our POC (Proof of Concept) evaluation is a key component of the Mondo Assessment process, designed to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of proposed solutions before full-scale implementation. This crucial step helps ensure that your projects align with business objectives and deliver the expected outcomes, minimizing risks and optimizing resources.

01/

Define Clear Goals and your acceptance criteria

  • Set Clear Goals: Define acceptance criteria and track progress.

  • Measure Results: Ensure effectiveness within budget and deadlines.

  • Plan Next Steps: Evaluate success and plan future actions.

03/

POC Scoping

  • Avoid Scope Creep: Focus on the POC, not the final product.

  • Set Expectations: Build stakeholder confidence in the new idea.

  • Define Objectives: Clarify what you want to learn and achieve.

  • Establish Success Criteria: Set clear benchmarks for success.

  • Identify Scenarios: Determine the scenarios to cover.

  • Allocate Resources: Ensure necessary resources are available.

  • Define the Team: Include potential customers, internal team, and stakeholders.

  • Set Timeframe: Define a timeboxed duration for the POC.

  • Plan Resource Use: Decide how to utilize resources during the POC.

  • Listen and Address Needs: Pay attention to customer needs.

  • Build Decision Matrix: Incorporate customer needs into the product.

  • Test Continuously: Adapt and iterate based on feedback.

  • Engage Customers: By launch, ensure customers are on board.

05/

Build the POC Development Team

  • Identify Essential Team: Select committed experts for the POC.

  • Keep Team Minimal: Align team size with POC scope (1-2 people for simple scopes, larger for complex ones).

  • Rely on Mondo: We can assemble the technical team you need.

07/

Evaluate POC

  • Evaluate POC: Assess and document findings.

  • Successful POC: Present results to stakeholders and explore their full potential.

  • Articulate Findings: Collaborate with Mondo Technologies to refine your insights.

  • If POC Fails:

  1. Retry: Redefine goals, timeline, and scope.

  2. Shut Down: Conduct a post-mortem review and document lessons learned.

02/

Setting deadlines and work with preset budget

  • Timebox POC: Complete in 2-4 weeks.

  • Scope Fit: Ensure POC scope matches the timeline.

  • Align Stakeholders: Sync key people with the timeline and budget.
    Early Adjustments: Modify scope or use cases as needed.

04/

Grob IT Architecture Landscape

  • Outline Architecture: Involve experienced architects for high-level design.

  • Prioritize Components: Identify essential and non-essential parts of the POC.

  • Select Environment: Choose the right platform (e.g., cloud) for development, testing, and deployment.

  • Avoid Perfectionism: Focus on iterative improvements rather than perfecting from day one.

  • Demonstrate Use-Cases: Prove your ability to develop well-defined use-cases for the POC.

06/

Implementation & Testing

  • Set Up Dev Environment: Utilize Mondo Technologies for setup.

  • Agile Methodologies: Implement iterative development practices.

  • Modern IT Tools: Use current tools for efficiency.

  • User-Friendly Front Ends: Develop intuitive interfaces for clients.

  • Code Repository: Choose (e.g., GitHub) and establish automated DevOps pipelines for CI/CD.

  • Testing & Acceptance: Define testing methods and acceptance criteria.

  • Fast Feedback: Test, iterate, and quickly relay feedback to the development team.
