Quality Assessment and Review       Click here for brochure

Projects and service delivery organizations can benefit from an independent assessment on the quality they are deliverying. An independent perspective removes vendor and personal bias allowing the assessment or review to focus on industry's best practices.

 
Outsourcing       Click here for brochure

We manage the entire process on behalf of clients for IT and Business Process outsourcing. Entering into an outsourcing effort represents a major management challenge for any organization. Given the sensitivity of the subject, clear direction and consistent messages are required. Hence, an early definition of the objectives will help immensely. Management will have to define the following:

  • Scope of the goods and services that will be outsourced
  • Type of vendor to work with for a potentially extended period
  • Nature of the desired relationship
  • How the relationship will endure change.

We can help shape the focus of an outsourcing project, prepare the request for proposal (RFP), assist with the resultant evaluation, the contractual definition of the relationship and the ensuing relationship management.
