Process Specific Management Systems Assessment

BUSINESS CHALLENGE
Some processes, such as change control or inventory control/release can be highly complex, involving multiple departments, systems, and/or processes. As an enterprise grows, these complexities scale even faster than the rate of growth. When facing significant workload increases, I.T. managers may not have the time, point-of-view, or experience to put an industry-standard, best-of-breed solution into place. In this case, many companies end up simply trying to scale their existing, inadequate departmental systems, or attempting to quickly implement a new system based on perceived requirements. Both of these situations can be costly in both time and money, and result in manual-based process flows that only lead to more intensive work with lost or confused data.

COVESTIC'S SOLUTION
Complex issues require deep knowledge and experience to solve. Using a strong focus on understanding the affected management systems, Covestic fully documents all requirements for each affected department, person, and system. We then use the existing system as a baseline to determine where inefficiencies or gaps exist, as well as the true cost of ownership for these systems. This discovery-and-analysis exercise is critical to the success of the next phase of Covestic's process: developing the new solution. Once the new solution has been selected, Covestic presents information on why the solution was selected, its total cost of ownership and return on investment, and how it will meet the specified requirements. The final deliverable from Covestic is a detailed implementation plan and schedule for the proposed solution.

COVESTIC ADVANTAGE
Covestic understands that resolving complex technological issues requires more than a generic solution or junior-level staff. To address this need, we employ an experienced and uniquely talented team who will dig deep to understand the areas that are of primary concern. With years of experience working to implement best-of-breed I.T. solutions, Covestic helps drive your requirements and cost data to ensure that you have a fully documented, current-state report. We then work with the I.T. department and take a holistic approach to the solution design processes. The result is to deliver an accurate and prioritized roadmap of paths, products, and costs that will drive future projects. Covestic also has the expertise to back that solution up with complete project implementation support.
