- You have read the stories about projects that take twice the time and cost three times the budget, how can you be sure that your project will be on-time and on-budget?

- The new system is supposed to change your business, how can you still make  sure that

you don’t wind up with the same the old processes, running in expensive new technology?

- The software seems to have all of the functionality that you need, but if there are gaps how can you be sure that they will be handled correctly?

These scenarios, although they focus on different potential issues with an application implementation, all have a common theme. The commonality lies in the need for the implementation to address the total needs of your business.
To get the return on investment that your company needs to justify the project, you must control the cost and the time that it takes to begin using the applications.

At the same time, to be effective, “new tools” require new processes and the issues involved in change management must be addressed. Your company is unique in the way that it does business. When “uniqueness” is key to your success and culture, it should be preserved. When it is the result of old systems and old policies, the company should change. How does a company know what to keep and what to change and how to do this on-time, within budget?

 
Itlaq Technologies Application Implementation Services use a top down approach to systems implementation that effectively focuses the implementation on the most effective use of the software, as a tool to help improve your business. The implementation begins by defining your company’s key business processes, and mapping them to the application. Starting with what needs to be done, Itlaq Technologies focuses the discussions on how it will be done using the application’s processes, rather than past practices. Setting up the system early, with test settings and sample data, allows the team to “design” and test their solution in the application, promoting process change acceptance and reducing customizations. The keys to On-Time, On-Budget, On-Target applications implementations are knowing what needs to be done, promoting effective process change and using professional, experienced project management to keep the project team focused on the goal – improving your business with new tools and processes.
