Intertech Is Different Than Other Firms
Why? Because we ask unexpected questions and listen. In our 30 years of software development, typically, what you think you need is different than what you should create.
No matter the size of your project, Intertech’s software consulting services bring together the experience and soft skills you need in a single turn-key package, whether you need one person or an entire team. Our scalable resources are built from a base of trusted Intertech full-time employees and can help you from the beginning of your project or mid-steam to add that extra boost of experience you may need.
We Begin With Everything Necessary To Ensure The Project Team Is Complete
The discovery stage is crucial when setting up the correct team to deliver your project successfully. At times this has been completed before our introduction to the project. In these cases, you may have determined that you only need specific roles added to your project teams, and that is just one way we can help augment your team. Other times clients ask us to take on this role to get an expert outside perspective. Either way, this phase is essential and must be considered to be confident that you have the right talent in place and that what you are building or modifying integrates with your existing system.
Tools & Techniques We Employee:
- Scope Detailing
- Analysis
- Technical Evaluation
- Initial Requirements Defined
- Define Delivery Strategy and Roadmap
- Leveling Workshops (For Your FTE Team-Members – As Needed)
Building A Strong Foundation Is The Key To Success
Converting your vision into reality requires a clear picture of requirements and the experience necessary to set a strong foundation for your new reality.

So, using what we learned in stage one and how stage two comes together, we define your team and estimate the timeline, making sure to keep you updated every step, so there are no surprises.
Areas Considered In The Build Phase:

Director of Operations
Tom Helvick
Experience and success typically go together. Add in curiosity, commitment to excellence, and a genuine concern for clients, and you’ll understand why Tom Helvick excels as Director of Operations at Intertech. Tom brings years of top-tier experience—and results—to his role leading our operational team. After years spent working for Deloitte as a Practitioner Support consultant (Tom was dispatched around the world to help correct distressed projects), creating a framework called ITASCA that is still in use today, and serving on the primary Microsoft team that vetted C# during the “C” development process, Tom moved to Intertech. He makes sure every project is matched with the most appropriate Intertech talent, so your project team is the right team.
“We are recognized and respected for how we use technology to build solutions for our clients. But at the heart of it, we are in a relationship business. Success isn’t just writing code. Success is understanding and caring about our clients’ business needs and delivering solutions that help them succeed.”
Why Did You Choose Consulting And Operations?
Consulting allows you to move outside your comfort zone and forge new relationships. I enjoy being in an almost continuous discovery phase where I’m learning about new clients and asking lots of questions. I quickly learn so much about people and companies, which ensures that I can connect the right Intertech team members to every client project.
