Foresight can partner with you in various consulting engagements to help in every phase
of system implementation and beyond. Additionally, our
Technical Services can provide virtually any level of installation, data,
and customization services you may require. Some sample
consulting engagements include:
Pre-sales audits and reviews
Several audits and reviews allow us to understand your operation and
determine the best way to implement your chosen solution. (Note that
depending on the specifics, multiple audits and reviews may be combined.)
Business Audit
Foresight Software’s pre-sales consultants provide a bridge between your
business process and our application to ensure a correct fit, including potential process improvement
opportunities. This audit
includes process mapping of your business processes and an overlay of our
application.
Modification Review
An additional service pre-sales consultants provide is a needs analysis
for additional product modifications in response to defined
requirement.
System Audit
This audit includes a review of the current environment including
hardware, software, and networking configurations, plus provides a gap
analysis outlining all system requirements.
Interface Audit
Another pre-sales audit is the interface audit, which includes a review of
the current software interface environment covering existing interfaces
between applications and third-party software.
Project Planning and Organization
Foresight Software’s project managers facilitate and apply project
methodology and management throughout the project life cycle. The project
manager works in conjunction with the client’s management, end users and
Foresight’s resources to ensure that the project deliverables and
objectives are being attained.
