The Nexus Innovations Approach
Change is a constant in the information age, and choosing the right management and technology solutions can give your business a competitive advantage over the competition. Technology in the right hands, with the right support, can be a strategic asset. You may not be quite certain which course to take and you know there may be some unforeseen challenges along the way. Choosing the right partner to work alongside and guide you in the process is tantamount to bringing about success.
At Nexus Innovations, we are committed to developing and delivering innovative and practical solutions to ensure your technology projects will produce strategic results and the process will be rewarding. Each member of the Nexus team is steeped in learning and leadership; and driven by a culture of service as you entrust us to lead the way. Founded in 2000, we’ve carefully grown our firm through strategic, results-driven projects that deliver great customer experiences and earn long-term client loyalty.
When doing business with Nexus Innovations you can expect: Integrity Simply said, we say what we mean, and do what we say. Our clients should expect nothing less. Discovery We value the process of learning about our clients and their requirements. Understanding equips us for success. Innovation Our solutions will be innovative, practical, and deliver exceptional value to our clients. Excellence Quality is far less costly than re-work. Teamwork Collaboration fosters better ideas, enables change, and delivers solutions that are accepted by all stakeholders. Responsiveness We are committed to our clients and respond to them with an acknowledgement of that fact.
- Successful technology projects are cultural, not just technical. Implemented correctly, successful IT projects have a positive impact on information management, communication, and collaboration throughout the entire organization — a true impact on how an organization works. Our approach recognizes this cultural impact from Day One, and it is reflected in the amount of effort dedicated to planning and change management.
- Plan for Success. Projects that have such a broad impact on an organization require a focused deliberate planning cycle in order to ensure success. Having a solid Communications Plan, Training Plan, and Support Plan are critical to positive user adoption and successful cultural change. We believe that project teams need to not only plan for a successful project, but also need to plan for what happens when the project is successful. New systems empower users to directly manage information for which they are responsible, and can enable them to develop their own solutions to their business issues.
- Crawl, Walk, Run. A multi-generational, evolutionary project approach is essential to meeting timelines, controlling scope, and managing expectations, while still providing a framework to capture visionary ideas for implementation.
- “Don’t Be a Hammer in Search of Nails.” We have fantastic tools available to us that can be the basis for many business solutions. However, it may not be the best solution for every business problem. We approach business requirements with a fresh, balanced view, and work with our clients to devise the best solution, regardless of the technology used to implement that solution. In short, knowing when not to use new systems is as important as knowing when to use them.

The Nexus Innovations Story
In 2000, two people had a dream of creating a high level strategic consulting company in the Roughrider state of North Dakota in order to serve clients in the Great Plains Region.
Their dream consisted of building the type of business they would want to do business with…and work for. A business that had a purpose and strategic mission reaching beyond just “doing business” and would provide services that genuinely helped organizations be more successful and reach the next level. They wanted to be known as the “go to” firm that delivers practical and innovative solutions with effective results. To achieve this dream, it would be essential to hire people with the same vision to provide leadership and deliver success, while developing a culture of trust and open communication.
Knowing hard work, persistence and creative vision would be needed to make it all come together, Bob and Lorie Pope were convinced that with God’s guidance it would become reality. They worked to develop a culture that had the special touch of friendship and fun, in which employees and clients knew they were working with people who truly cared, and would make a difference for their organization.
The dream took hold. In 2000, Nexus Innovations opened its first office in Bismarck, North Dakota and others with the same dream joined them. People took notice that they could trust Nexus Innovations to deliver the highest quality IT consulting and services. In 2008, another office was opened in Fargo, North Dakota to better serve clients in the eastern region. In time, Nexus Innovations grew its staff to be able to handle the needs of the largest firms in the region.
The core purpose of Nexus Innovations is to empower clients for success through strategic solutions. We listen and ask questions to determine a client’s needs, and then decide if we have the right resources to help the organization succeed. We realize that we are not the right fit for everyone. If we don’t believe we are the best fit, we tell you. If we believe we can help you accomplish your goals, then we offer our services. We want to create a long-term, trust relationship with clients that have that same desire.
Nexus Innovations has emerged as one of the leading strategic IT consulting firms in the region. That reason goes beyond delivering an outstanding product – the difference is our people, and the trust we build with clients. So give us a call, or better yet, stop in for a cup of coffee and see how we can help empower your company for greater success.
And so the dream became reality.
