"SYSTIME has done a great job for us, especially in the areas of JD Edwards and Networking. They have been very innovative and very adaptive in developing processes for us and improving our cost structure. We brought in SYSTIME primarily for JD Edwards but, after that they have also provided services in Network Monitoring, .NET Development, Lotus Notes Development, in general any Software Development."

"The ERP system we implemented was JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 8.12. The selection criteria for SYSTIME were based on their methodology, which had already been proven, repetitive successes that we could actually verify and the desire to implement a high quality solution. There was no interruption to business during the implementation. At the end of the day, if you have JD Edwards implementation and you do not have SYSTIME in the selection process, you have not put all the best parties in your selection criteria. SYSTIME is the best JD Edwards implementation company on the planet today."

Challenges
Top Implementation Challenges
Successfully implementing a new software application, while simultaneously
maintaining business continuity, is complex. Few organizations have the
expertise or resources to succeed alone. Choosing the right partner is critical.
The right partner for JD Edwards is SYSTIME. With our deep experience and focus
on the JD Edwards market, we are able to help customers navigate around common
obstacles, avoid frequent pitfalls, and be prepared to execute on day one.
Overcoming Resistance to Change
The inability to accept and adapt to change can cripple growth and profitability. For many organizations, this is the most significant challenge to enterprise application success. In some cases, executives will fail to move forward with projects due to the lack of visibility into ROI and low confidence that it can be achieved. At the staff level, employees are hesitant to learn new process and fear that they will become ineffective or replaceable. Overcoming these objections and securing buy-in across all levels of the organization is critical to implementation success.
Solution: To SYSTIME approach focuses on open communication and engagement to drive support across the organization. One of the first activities on any project is establishing a communication plan with both management and key users to provide real-time insight into project status. We conduct discovery sessions with key users to secure their commitment and advocacy for the project objectives. Across all of these channels, we actively promote out domain expertise to help our clients overcome uncertainty and embrace change.
Establishing and Maintaining Clarity on Project Scope and Timeline
Too often projects fail because they lack focus. While there is certainly a time for ideas and goals to be openly debated, once a project is under way, allowing project scope and objectives to expand ultimately leads to implementation delays and cost overruns. This is compounded by inexperienced implementers that do not understand the JD Edwards application and fail to efficiently identify opportunities for standardization. At best, this results in an implementation that has sizeable disconnects between business drivers and application functionality. At worst, it results in total failure.
Solution: The SYS-on-TIME Methodology follows a very well-defined, customer-oriented process to ensure that mutually agreed upon goals and milestones are set at project inception. At every phase of the implementation, we meet with our clients to obtain sign-off on deliverables and to reaffirm all goals and timelines before moving to the next phase. This ensures stakeholder alignment throughout the project and maintains the integrity and focus of the original implementation objectives.
Ensuring Effective Knowledge Transfer
The importance of user training is obvious. However, despite this common understanding, organizations often try to save money on application education. They provide insufficient training or offer training so late in the implementation lifecycle that it is simple ineffective. Both of these lead to poor user adoption, and severely hinder implementation success.
Solution: With SYSTIME, knowledge transfer begins on day one and continues throughout the project. The cornerstone of our success is empowering our clients to sustain their own application environment. Through train-the-trainer programs, and user productivity kits that walkthrough all business processes supported by the application, we empower our clients with the knowledge and competency to succeed.
Fitting into and Increasingly Tight IT Budget
In today’s economy, resources are scarce. Organizations are reluctant to invest in new implementations despite the overwhelming productivity gains available.
Solution: SYSTIME Global Delivery Model leverages onsite and offshore consultants to lower resource costs and expedite project delivery times. Our hybrid delivery model provides cost efficiencies while mitigating risk and maintaining project control.
