Falco Peregrinus Technologies: Introducing Robust Ways To Simplify Technologies

Separator
We can learn a massive deal from nature. Nature gives some of the best lessons in all aspects of life.

The peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus), also known as the peregrine, is a ubiquitous bird of prey (raptor) in the family Falconidae. The peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 320 km/h (200 mph) during its characteristic hunting stoop (high-speed dive), making it the fastest bird in the world, as well as the fastest member of the animal kingdom. According to one study, it has the fastest visual processing speed of any animal tested so far, and can register discrete changes up to 129 Hz or cycles per second. Its bird eye view to triangulate its prey from soaring heights, and then its ability to race down to meet its target is transcendent. The discipline, precision, and sheer will to make any challenging leap is something to ponder upon and learn from.

So why are we talking about a species of bird? Much like the decision making capabilities and laser-sharp prowess of this bird, Falco Peregrinus Technologies Private Limited has been catering to a diverse set of business problems with utmost rigor. What this means is that Falco too takes a vantage point view of businesses, and the moment a problem surfaces, the company leaps-in, resolves the issue and takes its position back to continue its watch.

Technology agnostic is a term that the organisation uses in the business that simply means that the company is unbiased towards the use of different technology tools to solve different problems.

Of late, an AI & analytical company wanted to transform its HR Department. The company wanted to merge HR function and analytics with a couple of other people functions, and create a product. Falco Peregrinus Technologies took the wheel in April 2019 by delving deep into the client's requirements, followed by immense brainstorming and meticulous research, and provided the client with the first set of codes in July 2019. The first and second versions of the product came-out in November 2019 and January 2020 respectively. The release of the third version was scheduled for May 2020.
