Implementation Servicesservices_turq.png

The guiding principle of our OneOffice implementation methodology is simple – reduce complexity, activity and risk through extensive use of proven solution templates.  Starting with a pre-configured solution, our OneOffice project plan focuses on activities that refine this and thus deliver a finished implementation faster, and at a lower cost (and risk) compared to the more traditional 'build from scratch' approach.

The implementation project is run very much on a team basis with both Strategix and customer personnel being assigned clear roles and tasks.

Within this team Strategix implementation services will include:

Project Management

The responsibilities of our project manager are to ensure there is:

  • Simplicity and clarity - clear, shared goals ensures the project team stay focussed on the key deliverables and time table
  • Communication - ensuring that issues are communicated to the right people, so they can be dealt with promptly
  • Responsibility - making sure that all activities have owners
  • Reporting -keeping minutes of meetings and regular updates to the project plan
  • Escalation - where variance or change control is required

Business Consultancy

It is the natural inclination of people to stick with what they know and if your business processes are already fully optimised, then this is a valid response. However much of the potential benefit of a new OneOffice system lies in taking advantage of the business best practise it supports.  Our Business Consultants can therefore add significant value by applying their broad industry experience and their deep OneOffice knowledge to a project. Their role is to:

  • Give impetus to the change process
  • Guide your team and help establish requirements
  • Probe, question and understand then recommend the most effective solution for your business
  • Have authority and show leadership
  • Ensure OneOffice delivers as many benefits as possible
