\n\tQAD-Advantage with Easy Onboarding<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”18″][vc_column_text el_class=”consultingtext”]QAD Easy On Boarding (EOB) is for companies seeking an industry best practice solution with reduced effort and cost of ownership. The methodology is a scalable option that offers pre-defined processes, predictable costs, and reduced implementation times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the small customer, a working solution is pre-defined and a focused project plan applies the tools to complete the project with minimal changes to achieve the time and cost restrictions of the project.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the larger customer, an expanded set of pre-defined processes and functionality are included, while still retaining the focus of having them defined for a specific industry. More, yet focused, time is allotted to process refinement toward the customer\u2019s desired outcomes. The same EOB content and tools are used to facilitate data definition, data migration, solution validation and user training.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For the multi-site customer, EOB is used to define the customer\u2019s core model solution, as well as being used in the distribution and deployment phases. Using process models and data definitions, the standard core model is easily defined; then using test scripts and work aids, the core model is proven and user training materials finalized. At deployment, the core model solution is rolled out to all sites.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At the core of the EOB content is knowledge, focused on an industry-specific solution. Consultants have pre-defined both default and optional processes that are used in the target industry. Industry-specific static data definitions are also pre-defined, along with project team and user training documents; pilot scenarios and test scripts; and user work instructions. This knowledge is used to provide the solution definition, allowing the consultant to focus their effort on areas that really make a difference and add value to the customer.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_single_image image=”7122″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css_animation=”none”][vc_column_text el_class=”consultingtext”]QAD Enterprise Applications, a world-class, fully integrated suite of software solutions, is designed to accommodate the needs of a new generation of software users.
