Business Systems Software Selection & Implementation for Convention & Tradeshow Co. 

Situation

This company is the market leader in providing full-service solutions in the areas of expositions, conventions, and corporate events. The client was running a manual order entry receiving process on custom-developed applications. The system no longer met business needs, and did not allow for future growth opportunities.

 

In order to position the business for efficient growth in the future, we launched an e-Business Platform Software Selection and Implementation initiative to review the client’s order entry receiving functions and to select an appropriate e-Business Platform software vendor. 



Credera's Contribution

  • A detailed evaluation of the current process state, determined by assessing and documenting existing business processes and manual order entry issues. High, medium and low priorities broken out by business process.
    • A series of interview sessions with executives and end users, resulting in validated current state documentation
    • Clearly identified business gaps and opportunities, a summary of current state findings and opportunities for process improvement
    • A high-level future state analysis of prioritized business requirements, used to identify 20-25 potential vendor candidates and to drive to a short list of vendor candidates
    • Vendor evaluations based on business requirements and business priorities, a vendor short-list with vendor ranking driven by data, a managed schedule for vendor demonstrations, and a summary of final scores for presentation to the management team
  • A detailed application design document
    • Application screen layouts
    • Application architecture and workflow diagrams
    • Collaboration with client to ensure accurate design prior to initiating development
  • Application development, testing and deployment
    • Detailed application testing scripts and scenarios that guaranteed viability
    • End user testing and sign-off prior to deployment

Result

The client quickly and confidently deployed an e-Business Solution that met the majority of its current and planned business needs within a limited time frame.
