Field Consulting Services, Inc. Enterprise Software Selection	Taking control of the vendor selection process
With considerable experience in a variety of manufacturing industries, our objective, unbiased consultants help you select the right package for your company. Our process, which includes industry leading SoftSelect methodology, reduces the timeline, minimizes internal costs, and increases accuracy while providing important knowledge to those who ultimately will use the software. SoftSelect has been involved in nearly 2,000 enterprise software projects and has established a proven methodology. Phase 1 - Analyze business and define functional requirements; end result is a long list of potential vendors. Phase 2 - Reduce the long list of vendors to the select few that will be reviewed in great detail. Phase 3 - Vendor preparation and demonstrations Phase 4 - Negotiation and implementation planning support. Everyone hears about the problems companies encounter with new software systems.  Certain steps need to be taken to avoid this from happening to your company.  Before starting a selection project, the scope of the project must be clearly defined and other important elements identified.   Download the free Project Startup Checklist to make sure your company has everyone on the same page and working towards the same objective - an integrated system providing reliable data and information throughout the company.
