TIME TO VALUE

Our MDM solution empowers your project teams to ramp up, roll out and reach your goals faster. The solution goes far beyond products to give you not only the technology—but also the methodologies to jump start your initiative, no matter how large or small. You get analyst-recognized products along with the knowledge and best practices that have been utilized by our consulting teams for many years. Enhance the solution even more by adding Industry.PerformanceREADY best-practice processes and content.

PRIME METHODOLOGIES

Starting an important initiative may feel like a daunting task unless you have done it many times before. That is exactly the benefit of our Prime methodologies. You benefit from the best practices and methodologies time-tested by your peers in thousands of similar initiatives.

Prime (Process Improvement Methodology) is a process-driven methodology for implementing best practice solutions. Based on long-term consulting experience, industry expertise and Business Process Excellence best practices, Prime consists of an implementation and deployment process for the entire business solution and project life cycle. An inventory of assets, including best practices, guidelines, tools and templates, enables you to execute detailed project steps and generate predefined deliverables.
