Planning

Successful implementation of business application software depends greatly upon proper planning. The skills required to ensure the creation of a successful plan include in depth product knowledge of the application being implemented, knowledge and experience of the business issues for a particular industry, and a proven planning methodology honed from experience and supplemented by a robust tool set.

Every engagement begins with a kick off meeting where key elements of the project are solidified including critical dates, selection of project team members from AMS and client staff, identification of critical business issues, and agreement of standard work place and project calendar. Following this initial session, a detailed, preliminary project plan is developed by AMS and distributed for review and approval. Additional planning sessions are often necessitated to fine tune the project plan.

A dedicated project manager is assigned to every project to ensure that projects are delivered on time and within budget.
