We wish we could hire Roy and ThirdWave to be on staff with our City permanently. Since the original engagement we have brought ThirdWave back to conduct additional Rapid Workflow sessions and help our customers define their requirements before acquiring technology solutions.
Phillip Leclair, Chief Information Officer
City of Pasadena
ThirdWave is a highly qualified firm with an extraordinary track record of accomplishment.
The Rapid Work methodology used by ThirdWave is an enormously effective and industry accepted methodology that our City staff experienced as very logical in drawing out needs, exploring requirements, and identifying constraints.
This structured approach sounds good on paper, but when matched with the deft execution exhibited by the ThirdWave team, and Roy in particular, wonderfully achieved the goals of being responsive to the City’s specific needs and facilitating the participatory process we strived to create.
