SOFTWARE THAT MEANS BUSINESS
ENERGIZED WORK

2. Energized Work is a software development
lab in London.
We do things differently because we’re fed
up of seeing companies let down by
traditional software development.
We make software that’s actually useful,
feels good, and lets people do things the
way they want without technology getting in
the way.
We’re taking a stand against bad software
and poor delivery.
ENERGIZED WORK’S APPROACH
TO RAPIDLY PRODUCING QUALITY
SOFTWARE IS THE BEST I'VE SEEN
IN THE LAST 20 YEARS.

3. We don’t just create software.
We keep a laser focus on your business
drivers and work with you to create the
solutions you need that deliver the
results you want.
We believe this works best when someone
from your business is in the driver’s
seat, working with us in our lab.
ENERGIZED WORK REFUSED TO TAKE
ON THE PROJECT UNTIL I PLACED A
BUSINESS GUY IN THEIR TEAM. THESE
ARE BUSINESS PEOPLES’ TECHIES.
BRINGING BUSINESS AND TECH
TOGETHER DELIVERED A GREAT RESULT.

WITH PREVIOUS PROJECTS, I WAS
FRUSTRATED WITH WEEKS OF
SPECIFICATION AND WAITING MONTHS
FOR A FIRST GLIMPSE AT THE SOLUTION.
ENERGIZED WORK WERE DEVELOPING
AFTER ONE WEEK AND WE WERE PLAYING
WITH A FIRST RELEASE AFTER JUST TWO.
We start delivering straight away so your
business benefits sooner.
We release working features every week
so you can test ideas with users to confirm
what’s useful and make decisions based on
their feedback. This way you only spend
money on what’s really needed.
Invest your budget a bit at a time so you
can respond to change and jump at
opportunities.
– Editorial Director at BSkyB

5. We move fast and keep the cost of
change low because we bake quality into
our software using test-driven development
and continuous integration.
We hate waste. Our approach is rigorous
and without ceremony. If something isn’t
going to deliver value to your business we
don’t waste time on it.
We give you an unfair advantage over
your competitors.
ENERGIZED WORK HAVE TECHNICAL
HORSEPOWER, COMMERCIAL
EXPERIENCE, AND THE CONFIDENCE
TO GET ON WITH THE JOB, TO START
DELIVERING FAST WITHOUT THE FUSS
OF A FULL FAT I.T. APPROACH.

6. Our software works. We build it fast. We
build it to last. And we stand behind it.
We use automated tests to create the
system end to end – not just the software
but also deployment and data migration,
backup, failover and monitoring.
We deliver solutions that run in the real
world without any hassle. They scale
from day one, they’re easy to use, and
they’re cheap to maintain.
AT FIRST I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE
GENIUS OF EXECUTABLE
REQUIREMENTS AND CODING IN PAIRS,
BUT THEN I RECEIVED A PLATFORM
THAT WORKED FIRST TIME. AND KEPT
ON WORKING. NOW I'M A CONVERT.

7. Our small teams get the job done. They’re
quick thinking and light on their feet, so when
you change your mind they respond quickly.
While everyone else is still trying to figure
things out we’re already cutting code.
You can leave all the tech stuff to us. If you
don’t want us to look after hosting and
support, we’ll ask for a couple of your techies
to work in our team from the start so they
can take over easily when the time comes.

I WAS AMAZED AT HOW MUCH ENERGIZED
WORK DELIVERED IN SUCH A SHORT TIME.
IT WAS REFRESHING TO WORK WITH SUCH
A FOCUSED TEAM AND SEE MY PRODUCT
COME TO LIFE.
– Head of Proposition Development at AOL

8. We make software for some big brands,
and some small ones, too.
We work with companies who are ready to
try something different to get better
business results from software
development.
Our clients stay with us because we care
and we deliver!
ENERGIZED WORK HAD A LASTING
INFLUENCE ON OUR COMPANY. THEIR
WAY OF WORKING INSPIRED MY TEAMS
TO CHANGE.

9. Sky wanted to be the #1 place on the Web
for celebrity gossip and showbiz news,
deliver an exciting interactive experience
around what’s on TV and complement on-air
movie channels with digital media.
From a standing start we built a bespoke
publishing system that saw Sky Living go
live in 9 weeks and officially launched after
just 21 weeks. Sky TV launched 7 weeks
later and Sky Movies 7 weeks after that.
AN AMBITIOUS PROJECT DELIVERED
EARLY THAT EXCEEDED BUSINESS
GOALS BY A MILE. 4 YEARS ON, WE’RE
STILL BUILDING ON THE PLATFORM
EVERY WEEK.

10. City Index asked us to assess their software
delivery capability given challenges they
faced and to explore solutions to key business
goals.
We delivered a trading system in 12 weeks
that demonstrated a rigorous, real-time
accounting model. It showed cash flows at the
point of trade together with core risk
management, which provided a clear
understanding of exposure and risk.
Our work clarified a number of critical
operational factors for City Index that were
successfully addressed in a 90-day
improvement plan.
ENERGIZED WORK ARE MASTER
PROBLEM SOLVERS. THEY HELPED US
FIGURE OUT SCALABLE SOLUTIONS TO
COMPLEX BUSINESS RULES.

11. AOL wanted a way to break into new
geographies quickly as their European
plans broadened.
We created a new lightweight,
internationalized portal powered by a feeds
engine that served content automatically,
and a publishing system that allowed editors
to touch up content in-situ.
ENERGIZED WORK ARE ON A MISSION
TO CHANGE THE WAY SOFTWARE
DELIVERS BUSINESS VALUE – THEY
ACHIEVED IT AT AOL
