Assessment

To get to the right place at the right time, you need a road map. Our enterprise assessment provides clients with a comprehensive business analysis that aligns business goals with technology initiatives.

Implemented with its own unique methodology, an assessment identifies all the elements of technology, processes and business culture required to facilitate improved operational efficiencies, better business insight and more profitable customer relationships.

The goal of an assessment is to ensure solutions are built on a solid foundation and prescribe the steps necessary to achieve business objectives.

The assessment process involves collaborating with clients to:
  • Ascertain, clarify and build consensus around your business vision and what you are trying to achieve in the marketplace
  • Analyze and assess your competitive position, current technology base and high level business processes
  • Advise the solution that best fits the parameters of all factors to meet your objectives

Abaris produces a comprehensive road map that sets the stage for initiatives with specific project definitions and requirements. Together with the client, Abaris identifies the desired business and technology outcomes and benefits. We articulate findings and translate them into architectural terms. And delineate transitions required of people, processes and technologies.

The result of this process is a clearly articulated road map that documents a client's business vision and the steps required to turn that vision into reality with tangible business benefits. An Abaris assessment road map consists of the following elements:

  • Clearly defined objective statement
  • Desired outcomes
  • Benefits
  • Evidence
  • Clearly defined business requirements
  • Identification of relevant business processes
  • Identified financial, organizational and technical assumptions/constraints
  • Identification of client organization sponsors
  • Project management structure
  • Action plan for implementation phases addressing people, process and technology transitions

Methodology

Abaris utilizes a proven, repeatable methodology that ensures the consistent, high-quality delivery of engagements. We place a high priority on project delivery and process.

Based on Abaris' guiding principles of phased delivery, team collaboration and ongoing knowledge transfer, our implementation methodology involves extensive and continuous client involvement in implementing Oracle solutions. The Abaris methodology commands hands-on training and in-depth team collaboration. Client team members work side-by-side with Abaris consultants throughout every phase of a project including business modeling, system-module functional review classes, joint application design, integration/conversion analysis and production cut-over.

The Abaris methodology ensures clients understand the application and the solution it's based on so they are thoroughly prepared to manage it with minimal ongoing support or expense.

Based on the scope of the solution, Abaris builds a cohesive, multi-disciplinary team for each project. This team remains intact and focused throughout the life of the engagement, eliminating lost time and project risk commonly associated with an "ad-hoc" team approach.

Knowledge Transfer

Part of what we convey to our clients is enthusiasm and energy to achieve success together.

Abaris utilizes a knowledge transfer approach that minimizes risk and empowers clients, ensuring competency and long-term success by encouraging team involvement.

We proactively incorporate knowledge transfer into every engagement, so Abaris clients are involved directly in solution development, architecture design, data modeling and technology tools throughout the life of the project.

We include knowledge transfer as a key deliverable in all our projects, decreasing your support costs and improving staff development and retention. We measure our success by our clients' comprehension and ongoing manageability of their solutions.
