Bureaucracy: The last performance bottleneck

Speed matters.

Because given enough time, you’ll be forced to make hard choices — or they will be chosen for you.

Nowhere is this more apparent than in enterprise business.

If a project requires multiple levels of bureaucratic approval, meaningful decisions can take weeks, if not months.

And new decisions that need to be executed quickly?

Forget about it! 🙅‍♂️

Meanwhile, technology continues to advance at a relentless pace, with no committee necessary.

LLMs can read and comprehend data billions of times faster than a human, and neural networks can execute operations at unfathomable speeds.

It’s only a matter of time before this computing power is used to help leaders make faster, smarter business decisions.

But for now, human decision-making is still (more often than not) slow.

Sometimes, we’re able to build a product in just a few weeks.

But there’s always a chance that the bureaucratic hydra could rear its ugly head, where that project takes months to be approved internally by the client!

By then, the available time is exhausted, their need is moot... and all parties promise to try again the next month, quarter, or year.

The lesson we’ve learned?

In the tech industry, more than anywhere else, economic value is generated through speed.

Technology is advancing faster than ever.

Opportunities emerge and pass by in the blink of an eye.

And the time frame to gain ground over the competition keeps on narrowing.

Which is why at AE Studio, we condition ourselves to work at the pace of technological development.

That means when we work on a project, we move fast.

(Understatement of the century — we often conceptualize, develop, and deliver a new software product in a single day!)

If you’re a founder, executive, or visionary with a tough technical challenge on your hands...

And you need a flexible team that can get the job done quickly, with deep, specialized tech expertise spanning nearly every industry...

Book a call with us here, and let’s talk about it.

No matter how tough the challenge, we’ll help guide your project every step of the way — from brainstorming, to concept, to launch, and beyond.

We’ll be back with more AE Studio Bytes every Tuesday and Thursday.

Until then! 👋
