Studio

An individually led studio diagnosis before code.

HME84 works from Mexico City and remotely. Its focus is understanding operational problems, reviewing systems and building digital tools for a defined use. We do not sell generic “digital transformation”: we listen, map what exists and tell you whether to build, adjust or leave things alone for now.

Approach

A direct working relationship.

HME84 was founded by Erik Garcés and is led by one person. There is no fixed team behind it: when a project needs another specialty, project-specific collaboration is brought in, and the scope sets out who participates, their responsibilities and what each party needs to provide.

You do not need to arrive with a perfect brief. We work remotely, through video sessions. Closeness is not in the postal code; it is in the honesty of the diagnosis.

The evolution of the HME84 mark: four versions of the emblem, from a simple outline to the current one, with the motto “Raíces fuertes antes de crecer” (strong roots before growing).
From a review to a decision

Log & Logic

Work starts with the problem and the information available. It may lead to an assessment, a review of costs and tools or a development proposal.
A useful recommendation explains what was observed, what is proposed and what remains to be verified.
The most valuable diagnosis is not the one that sells. It is the one that tells the truth.

The full principles are in Foundations and the Manifesto.

Framework

Three phases, one way of judging.

We use the Loop84 / Root84 / Glow84 framework as a shared language: first understand what exists, then consolidate it and, only if the scope calls for it, build. Each proposal defines which phases are contracted.

01
Loop84

Assessment

Listening, mapping what is real, and separating real urgency from fashionable noise.

02
Root84

Consolidation

Organizing tools, costs and processes so what already exists can work better.

03
Glow84

Preparation for operation

When the scope calls for it: a lightweight, transferable build that can be used and maintained in its context.

Our own projects

Apps born from a concrete, real need.

The studio also builds its own apps and tools. They help test uses, learn and define possibilities. Each one states what kind of work it is and where it stands.

The studio also runs on internal tools (CodeH5, Agents84, WTL and the Forja program) that are not offered as products. See internal tools.
