While the uniqueness of each client dictates the exact services needed, typical services include:

• System and Business Analysis of Corporate Needs
• Project Management Assistance
• Technical Design and Analysis
• Software Modification
• User Training

We cannot begin solving the client's specific problems until we first gain a solid basic understanding of them. In our initial contact we determine:

• Specific needs and background
• Origins and severity of problems
• Scope of the project
• Key issues to be addressed

We then determine:

• A broad definition of the assignment and expected results
• Logical phases with milestones
• Approximate time and cost

During each assignment, periodic updates are given. These are augmented by project status reports, reviews to summarize the findings and progress to date, and discussion for any modifications in the direction for the balance of the project. Upon completion of our work, we report our results and recommendations to client management. Our goal is to provide clients with solutions which are practical for them to implement.

Business Software Consultants participates in a variety of consulting services programs. As part of these programs, we have access to software products and documentation. We are allowed and encouraged to attend continuing education courses, and we keep vendors informed of the status of our projects.
