One stop shop

Our team members cover all of the types of all skills sets required for implementing your solution. Our team will be on your side and we work with your selected vendor or system integrator to ensure that your business requirements are covered in the delivered solution.

Here are some types of resources that are typically needed on a project implementing an ERP solution:

Business Analysts work with the business and work with your key leaders to identify detailed business requirements that the system needs to support.

Testing Specialists prove out the system according to the document requirements testing. Testing is critical to project success because it is the moment of truth in whether or not your system meets business requirements and expectations.

Solutions Architects work with the implementation consultants or your selected vendors on the design of the solution and ensure that any other systems at your organization are well integrated and seamless.

Subject matter experts bring real-world experience and expertise critical for understanding and developing future state processes.

Technical Leads work with your selected vendors’ technical teams and the internal IT teams to ensure that technical components are developed according to the acceptable standards and can be easily supported.

Craft business focused training

Traditionally, implementation projects usually focus on delivering the solution. Too often, they forget about the people to whom they will hand over the reins after going live. Training is critical to ensure that your staff is ready to use the system once they have received the keys. Training materials are needed for all team members. They should be able to refer to them when they operate the system, and especially over time as the business evolves.

Training, of course, needs to be delivered in a way that fits today’s new normal. It needs to be simple. It needs to come in bite-size pieces that focus on that speak to your team members and in a manner that maximizes retention.

Change management

Change management applies both to the IT department and to the overall organization as a whole. If you are looking for great user adoption and for your people to be receptive to your new system, then you need to pay attention to change management.

Our change management experts work with all impacted teams in your organization so that they are aware of all future changes. Equally important, they keep communication lines open with all impacted individuals to prepare for a smooth rollout.

Application managed services

We get it. Sometimes it’s tough to support your new software solution. Here at BlueSky, we keep supporting you even after the system is rolled out and our resources can continue to support your teams to make sure the system is used to full capacity.
