Consulting Partners - Be Choosey

TBS recognizes the value and importance a qualified consultant can add to the success of a client’s implementation. As a former Deltek Executive who managed Deltek’s consulting and training organizations through Y2K, I have to caution you to choose your consultant carefully. In today’s economy, we are all trying to reduce expenditures. However, when it comes to selecting your consultant the lowest rate is not your best choice.

As you select your implementation consultant, consider their experience both with the application and your industry. Do they have the depth of resources to support your industry needs and growth expectations? Can they help you develop policies and procedures that not only work well with the product, but also best support your industry needs? Do they understand your customer, the economic climate in which you operate? Certainly, they can help you turn the system “on” but can they help you navigate through regulations within your industry and support your business model?

CPA (accounting) firms with industry specialization generally have the experience, knowledge and dept to support your business needs. As a client’s most trusted advisor, if they cannot provide application specific consulting support they can refer you to an experienced consultant to work hand in hand with the accounting firm’s industry experts. Your new system will support your business needs for a long time.

Maximize your ROI and get the most out of your system, now and in the future. TBS has partnered with experienced firms offering industry expertise on a value added consulting basis. Please consider one of our Consulting Partners to support your firm’s system implementation or re-engineering needs.
