Professionalism, structure and customer-focus help to ensure low-risk,
high-quality implementations of Microsoft Dynamics systems, including
Dynamics NAV and Dynamics AX solutions.
IT projects can unlock doors to greater competitiveness. Yet at the same
time, complex solution deployments are associated with risks, including
project scope creep, missed deadlines, downtime and consumption of resources. Resources which could otherwise be spent on activities that add
value to your business. That’s why it is essential that a tried and tested
delivery methodology is used.
EG’s One Delivery Methodology (ODM) combines best practices from the
Microsoft SureStep methodology and EG’s own deep IT project experience to optimize planning, delivery and ongoing support of IT solutions.
It offers tools, templates and guidance that increase the consistency and
quality of your IT solution deployment.
The right combination of structured approach and customer intimacy
EG ODM offers a structured way to work closely with you and your organization to establish a common understanding of your business needs right
from the start. With this shared foundation in place, we can assemble the
optimal project team of specialists, and map roles, responsibilities and
tasks across the EG and customer participants.
A smooth transition from deployment to operations
EG ODM is an end-to-end methodology covering all phases of the IT solution
deployment and ongoing customer lifecycle. As such, it does not stop
with the successful delivery of the solution. A smooth hand-off from the
implementation team to the training and support teams helps you get the
most out of your new solution from day one, and for the long-term.
A scalable methodology for IT project success and faster ROI
EG ODM’s six phases cover implementation and upgrade of large, medium
and small Microsoft Dynamics solutions, and help ensure an on-budget,
on-time delivery of your solution.
