About Us

When the founding partners of LeanWorks Consulting came together in the fall of 2011, they decided it was time to redefine what software consulting had become to so many businesses, a bloated and expensive necessity that everyone dreaded. We set out to provide a different software consulting experience for their clients.

Our Approach

We solve business problems by deploying dynamic and agile teams of experienced consultants that build custom solutions to match the strategic needs of our clients. Our business model allows clients to enjoy cost efficiencies that high-overhead firms simply can’t match. This approach alone could be considered quite different within the industry, but when you add a relationship-driven philosophy towards doing business and the experience to solve real problems, you’ll find working with LeanWorks to be a refreshing change to what you may have encountered in the past.

Our Work

We designed an event driven architecture to provide continuous intelligence for monitoring assets in transport. This included GPS location, transport sensory measures, severe weather information, and homeland security alerts. The recommended architecture was prototyped successfully and moved into the implementation phase.

Health Diagnostic Laboratory has brought LeanWorks to their fast paced lab in Richmond, VA to meet the demands of its rapidly growing enterprise. We are deploying cutting edge technologies, real time systems and a service layer to integrate disparate applications and datasources. Additionally, LeanWorks is providing mentoring services to bolster HDL's internal development staff and has been working with their Marketing team to unify their web, social and sales presence under a consistent brand.

We worked with Genworth to conceive and develop an agent portal, optimized for tablets, that managed sales leads throughout the United States. The new and improved user experience allowed the agents to perform their daily work much more efficiently and facilitated the sales process. The system cleanly integrated with SalesForce to leverage existing data and utilized a leads distribution engine to assign leads to agents in the field.

Dominion Power has retained LeanWorks' services to provide automated, mathematical validations on sensitive data to comply with legislative regulations. We have partnered with PhD resources from University of California San Diego to ensure the highest quality of execution throughout the engagement.

We helped a rapidly growing Richmond start-up design and implement various key components of a self-service, industry-agnostic application to handle the everyday marketing and promotional needs of small business owners. One of the key features of the platform was the ability to publish discounted deals which allowed clients to drive sales of specific inventory. The system had multiple customer-facing portals that streamlined daily tasks and facilitated client communications. The cloud-based technology stack was chosen with performance and scalability in mind.

profile for Nix at Stack Overflow, Q&A for professional and enthusiast programmers LeanWorks believes that the best way to move the technology industry forward is by fostering a community that encourages knowledge sharing and learning. We love cutting edge technologies, and like to encourage people to try new technologies. The initial knowledge hurdle is generally finding a quality forum to ask for help. In our field the first place to check for answers is online, and one of the most popular sites in our field is Stackoverflow. Stackoverflow describes itself as a site "for professional and enthusiast programmers, people who write code because they love it." That is where you can see many of the contributions from one of our founders, Nick Capito.
