Problem: A government agency had been working on implementing
budgeting software for 6 months with little progress. The software
vendor was unable to make the customizations requested by the customer
due to lack of technical knowledge and resources.
Solution: Projectway evaluated the situation and helped
the customer prioritize their needs. Realistic goals were set and a
detailed schedule was built. Expectations were consistently managed.
Projectway technical consultants identified solutions to roadblocks
and successfully completed the needed technical changes.
Results: The customer was able to continue with the implementation
as planned and software vendor relations were significantly improved.
Problem: An eCommerce software vendor was severely handicapped
due to the installation complexity of their own products. The
sales force was unable to get its multiple product offerings successfully
working on a single demonstration system. This was limiting the sales
force's ability to perform live demonstrations to potential and current
customers and prohibited the deployment of 40+ Tadpole Solaris laptops
(costing $17,000 a piece) purchased as demonstration systems.
Solution: Using superior trouble shooting skills we
identified the problems and developed workaround solutions to make
all products work on a single system. In addition, detailed processes
were designed and implemented for administrating and deploying the
Tadpole systems. The software vendor sales support organization was
thoroughly trained in the administration processes.
Results: The sales force was able to do its job by
showing a full demonstration of the vendor's solutions to potential
and existing customers. The expensive idle Tadpole-Solaris demonstration
systems were successfully deployed. Additionally, the vendor was able
to copy the solution and apply it to the Windows 2000 based demonstration
systems.
