IT MARKET CHANGES
HR has not only crept into the life of IT companies, but has taken root. Exposure to the labour market has a direct impact on the development of companies, and at those companies where the work environment and projects are not “trendy” enough, owners and managers certainly face serious challenges. But it must be acknowledged that companies that have coped with this HR challenge one way or another have been able to make huge profits.
Owing to these shifts, more and more companies are content with the easy revenue that comes with sending their current IT people directly to customers, although this practise can be difficult to plan and generates little value and profit. Product development has stalled in many places and this has made it impossible for IT companies to truly develop. It is easy to see why: this business practise has a finite capacity and does allow one to dream or make great strides. Moreover, the era of boxed products is also over because modern businesses prefer customised solutions. This has created one of the most pressing challenges in the IT market, as a basic tool for organisational development is the development of the IT background, but fully custom IT solutions necessitate heavy investment in terms of time and money that most startups do not have. In other words, fewer companies are choosing a completely custom development, in which the customer needs to work intensively with an IT team for almost a year to get something started.

THE ERA OF UNENGRAVED PRODUCTS
We are starting a new chapter in the field of IT development projects. IT companies have to find a happy medium when serving clients, who do not want boxed products, but they also do not want to start a project from scratch. Smarter IT companies try to turn their knowledge into a product, but an unfinished one. They consolidate their experience gained from several development projects in a given sector, and then offer this consolidated experience to companies in the same sector. Given the very similar IT challenges arising from the similar business models, a development project does not start from zero, but instead from a very advanced state, up to 70-80% readiness.
Then, the IT company tailors its concrete development to the specific, unique needs of the customer. In this case, there is a licensing fee, but it is nowhere near as costly as bringing a new development up to 70-80% completion. Neuron, a key player in the Hungarian IT sector, defines such projects as “unengraved products”, where only the final “engraving” has to be completed for the new customer.

WE IT LEAGUE
WE IT LEAGUE is a new player in the international and domestic IT market. The association unites several domestic IT companies with centralised professional training, business development, and a sales and communication interface. The American-Hungarian holding company brings together those players in the IT market who have special professional knowledge and internationally unique solutions. These companies usually operate in the form of “boutique companies”, which struggle to fulfill larger orders with the right dynamics.
From these smaller, professionally strong units, WE IT League creates a large corporate environment that can meet the demands of large-scale international projects. Thus, the League can effectively carry out bigger developments, but it is also suitable for carrying out individual projects that require more specialised knowledge.

PARTNERSHIP
WE IT League consists of smaller stand-alone units, but can also act as a consolidated organisation. The League is constantly expanding to include businesses that have gone through a rigorous selection process. After joining, companies undergo business development, reorganisation, product concept, and strategic processes, all of which will ensure that their products and services meet international standards. The WE IT League certification process is based on two parts: professional and international business development compliance. The professional certification is carried out by WE IT’s centralised senior team under the leadership of Neuron; the business development certification of the company’s products and services is carried out by Mentors & Partners Group. That is, being a member of WE IT League is not an formality, but a recognition of an impressive professional and business background.
In this way, WE IT League’s partners are assured that the cooperation will provide stable, reliable solutions supported by high-quality, premium service. Another advantage of WE IT League is the cost efficiency resulting from the larger size, which is clearly reflected in our pricing. In a typical order in the current IT setting, the customer finances not only the knowledge of the specialist, but also the company costs of the given specialist. In the case of WE IT, these costs are not significant due to the efficiencies gained by size.
