LAND BIG CHANGE

You've one shot at go-live. We make sure you don't miss.

With major platform launches or replatforming, complexity is real, suppliers are many, and accountability is blurred. Spike provides independent QA leadership across your programme, making risk visible early and ensuring honesty on quality right through to go-live. 
YOUR SITUATION

Complex, multi-supplier programmes

Retailers managing multiple vendors with nobody owning end-to-end quality. Integration points fail. Accountability disappears in the gaps.
WHAT SPIKE DOES

Quality leadership and assurance

We sit across the whole programme - not inside any single workstream. We set the quality standard, own the end-to-end strategy, and surface risk in time to act on it.
YOUR SITUATION

Go-live confidence feels low, stress-levels high

The team knows it isn't ready. UAT is overrunning. Defects are coming in late. Senior stakeholders need something more than hope.
WHAT SPIKE DOES

Readiness through evidence, not opinion

Go-live decisions backed by risk-based evidence. Execs and programme leaders get clarity, not comfort. We've done this for NetSuite, Salesforce, Oracle Retail, MACH amongst other retail platforms.
