Software Implementation Services

Professional Software Implementation – The Cornerstone of Our Business and Your Success

Whether it’s a basic installation of Microsoft Windows or a sophisticated deployment of Microsoft Dynamics, the key to a successful implementation is gaining a firm understanding of your business requirements and objectives.  You can count on ABC to take the time to get to know your business and use proven methodologies to ensure your expectations are met on time and on budget.

For example, with Microsoft Dynamics NAV financial management and ERP solutions, we utilize an internationally proven implementation methodology called SureStep.™ This methodology ensures quality development, consistent implementation services, and a rapid return on investments to our customers.

Software Implementation Process – Key Components of The SureStep Methodology

• Intensive Requirements Gathering – Before the project starts, our team works directly with you to develop a firm understanding of the requirements of the project.
• Phased Projects – Targeted, smaller projects to achieve overall objectives while minimizing risk.
• Continuous Communication – During all phases of the project our team utilizes standard weekly status reports, change requests, and risk memos
