DHI has over 50-year’s of experience in developing and implementing solutions that meet real-life challenges in water environments world over. Their existing advisory business is supported by an extensive and proven software portfolio called MIKE that typically drives the software product development.

Approach
To secure a product and market fit for a new market segment. Several verticals were assessed and the most fitted was investigated in details based on market intelligence and actual potential and existing customer interviews. Together we created a comprehensive fact-book with market information covering the market needs before establishing business model development options, together with a strong voice of customers with a advisory board. This led to identifying key jobs to be done, and the value proposition for a product and market fit together with required sales and marketing efforts.
