VertexOne FastStart - Implementation Support Services
Implementation projects for utilities needn’t be risky, drawn out, and expensive propositions. VertexOne Implementation Support changes all of that, with a templatized approach based on extensive experience working with all different types of utilities.
Whether a utility is considering a full CIS replacement project, adding the latest in reporting and analytics, or simply upgrading their existing infrastructure and software, implementation projects can be a nightmare. The evaluation and selection process, the planning, implementation, data conversion, and testing—put together these can spell a long, drawn-out timeline, scope creep, budget overruns, and sadly, the potential for failure.
That’s why VertexOne offers a solution, a different approach from the traditional implementation project. With VertexOne Implementation Support, we use the VertexOne methodology, a modified agile approach that combines the best of both agile and waterfall project planning and execution. This approach focuses on reducing risks from Day One, using requirements definition, projects resourcing, accounting for required integrations and data conversion efforts, and change management to manage scope creep. From migration to end-user buy-in, the VertexOne methodology makes the entire implementation process as seamless as possible.
We believe the best surprise is no surprise—except for the delight of having delivered your project on time, on budget, and with an outcome that meets or exceeds expectations.
VertexOne has been delivering excellence in customer experience technologies to utilities of all sizes for over 20 years, so we understand your needs and your customers’ needs more than most implementation consultants.
VertexOne’s commitment to flawless project execution and its structured, rigorous, yet agile methodology significantly increases the likelihood of an on-time, high quality, and on-budget implementation.
