From beginning to end and everything in between, we can assist you with any new system implementation.
Life Cycle of a system implementation
- 1 -
Needs Assessment - 2 -
Research - 3 -
Product Comparison & Selection - 4 -
Set-Up & Implementation - 5 -
Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Needs Assessment
Determination of what systems and processes (if any) need to be improved or replaced in order to improve overall functionality in the business
Research
Locating options that are available in the marketplace that could potentially address the issues identified in the Needs Assessment stage
Product Comparison & Selection
Comparing potential solutions available against business needs identified and performing a cost-benefit analysis to assist in the decision process
Set-Up & Implementation
Taking the selected product or solution and implementing it within the business
Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Making adjustments as needed and fine tuning the new solution to maximize its value to the business
Any of these stages can be overwhelming, often resulting in one of two situations:
Not allocating enough time to each stage and rushing through the process, with the end result not satisfactorily addressing the needs of the business
Abandoning the process altogether and maintaining status quo, not addressing the needs of the business at all
At Blue Phoenix, our goal is to help you succeed and grow stronger and more efficient as a business. This is often achieved through the implementation of new systems and processes. Instead of falling victim to a failed implementation, contact us for assistance!

Having a knowledgeable and experienced person assuming leadership of the project to ensure all individual parts fit together and adequately address the identified needs and objectives.
We can help with any type of system implementation, including but not limited to:
