Business Consulting

Often, business consulting is required as a result of a "triggering event", such as:
- new ownership
- acquisition
- a major new account
- new product line introduction
- purchase of new hardware or software
- un-met growth opportunities
- or, degrading margins
The first step in any business consulting engagement is to understand your business strategy, current business landscape, and known challenges and opportunities. Our business consultant performs a Comprehensive Business Review at your shop. The review includes meetings with key members of management and staff to gain knowledge of your business, and time spent in your operation identifying the material and data flows of your business. Actual required on-site time varies depending on the size and complexity of your business, but typically requires 1-3 days. After the on-site, the consultant develops a written assessment and list of recommendations based on the business understanding gained while on-site. The consultant reviews the assessment with you remotely, mutually agrees to next steps, and schedules additional consulting time accordingly.
New customers typically find it helpful to conduct a business review just prior to their JobBOSS implementation. It helps them modify and improve their core business processes, then implement JobBOSS using the new processes.
Experience shows that customers trying to manage their JobBOSS implementation without a dedicated project manager often take 2-3 times longer to implement. Most implementations are left to resources who already have full time jobs, resulting in a lack of focus and disorganization of implementation tasks. JobBOSS business consultants bring project management expertise to your business - ensuring completion of your JobBOSS implementation in the most timely and complete manner possible. Don't allow the ROI from your JobBOSS purchase to be delayed!
