Our Commitment to Your Success
At TurningPoint Systems, we understand that choosing a new ERP software system can be a daunting task for any organization. That’s why we work closely with our customers to ensure a successful implementation of our ProfitPoint or QwikPoint applications.
We believe that a successful project outcome is achieved through collaboration and partnership between our experienced team and the project team. In this partnership, we have clearly defined roles and responsibilities that ensure the project is delivered on time, within budget, and meets the unique business requirements
We assign a dedicated project manager to oversee the implementation of our ERP system. The project manager acts as a liaison between our teams, facilitating communication and collaboration throughout the implementation process.
They are responsible for:
– Creating a project plan and timeline
– Setting milestones
– Ensuring that tasks are completed on schedule
– Monitoring progress
– Keeping all stakeholders informed of any changes or issues that may arise
– Providing regular status updates and reports to ensure that the project remains on track and within budget
This level of project management oversight helps to ensure that the implementation process is as smooth and efficient as possible.
Our experienced team has a thorough understanding of the regulatory environment and compliance standards that must be met. We can help you streamline your processes, improve efficiency, and reduce costs while ensuring compliance and maintaining quality. Our ProfitPoint or QwikPoint application can be customized to fit your unique requirements, and we are committed to delivering solutions that provide value and meet your goals.
We believe that every customer is unique and has their own set of business requirements. That is why we take the time to understand the existing business processes thoroughly. By doing this, we can identify any bottlenecks, inefficiencies, or redundancies that exist in the current business processes. We then suggest alternative processing methods that may be more efficient or effective, leading to a streamlined and optimized workflow. Our team works closely with the project team to ensure that any changes suggested are in line with their business objectives and goals. This approach helps our customers get the most out of their software investment by using it to optimize their business processes.
At TurningPoint, our team of experienced professionals ensures a smooth and hassle-free installation process. We begin by analyzing the existing infrastructure to determine the best approach for installing the ERP system. Our team works closely with IT departments to ensure that the system is installed on the server correctly and is configured to meet the specific needs of the businesses. We take care of all the technical details and ensure that the system is fully functional.
At TurningPoint, we understand the importance of proper training. That is why we provide knowledgeable and experienced trainers who are experts in our software and can effectively train the project teams. Our trainers are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to teach the ins and outs of our system and help the teams become proficient in using it. Additionally, our trainers are patient, attentive and can adjust their approach to meet unique needs and workflows.
Our experienced team of data analysts and migration specialists analyze existing data and develop a detailed migration plan. This plan includes identifying data sources, defining data mapping rules, and establishing a timeline for the migration process. Our team also ensures that the data is properly cleansed, validated, and transformed as needed to ensure accuracy and completeness. Throughout the migration process, we perform regular testing and quality checks to ensure that the data is transferred correctly to our ERP system. Our goal is to make the data migration process as smooth and seamless as possible, so they can begin using their new system with confidence.
During the go-live phase, our team provides extensive support to ensure a smooth transition to the new ERP system. We understand that the success of the implementation depends on the system’s performance during the initial stages of use, which is why we prioritize support during this crucial time. Our team is readily available to answer any questions and address any issues that may arise, ensuring that the system operates as intended. We work closely with the teams involved to resolve any technical problems and ensure that the system is fully functional. Our commitment to providing post-live support ensures that any issues that arise are quickly resolved.
