Partner Review
Sharad conducted a short focused review of the Central Market Operating System for the non household water market to improve confidence in delivery and the market opening on time. I was highly impressed with the quality of the insight and recommendations given the complexity and timescales involved. I found Sharad to be very professional in his approach and look forward to working with him again in the future. I fully endorse his work and would highly recommend his counsel to anyone with a mission critical programme looking to improve confidence in delivery or in need of a fresh perspective.

He worked well with both our business colleagues and our tech teams to gather functional and non-functional requirements, analysing and summarising them into a format suitable for RFP documents. It was really beneficial to us to have someone with technical expertise and business analysis skills who could provide this support on a part-time and varying basis over a number of months, and he was always flexible to help us meet our deadlines.
