Tools & Frameworks

Don't use a spoon when you need a pickaxe.

At MIDIOR, we are all about choosing the right tool for the job. Sometimes our clients simply need wise counsel that can only be found in the experience of our consultants. Often, however, a particular framework, methodology, check list or other handy tool can be useful in diagnosing a problem, developing a deeper understanding of the current state and then coming up with a solution.



We are both students of industry best practices and developers of our own unique and distinctly relevant tool kit. Whether you are planning your product portfolio, developing a technology roadmap, tuning your organization model, or gaining a detailed understanding of your customer requirements, our tools and frameworks will facilitate your thinking.
