As your organization has been formulating plans to update your current systems, ours has been performing these upgrades across the country, investigating every facet of new technologies and methods.

With 19 CNC consultants and dozens of technical and application specialists, we identify the best and worst of the new releases, along with designing better ways to help our customer get greater results for their investment.

Our methodology for upgrades as with all of our implementations is described as "clinical execution and delivery".  It is important to define the tasks, optimize the delivery, and execute the requirements with almost surgical precision.  It is our desire to not only migrate clients to new releases, but identify every possible way to reduce the overhead of their current systems.  We also strive for componentizing each segment of the upgrade to reduce risks and clearly track related costs.

What sets the iConsortium apart from other providers?

The number one differentiator of iConsortium upgrades is our approach to the upgrade assessment.  We are the only ones to offer a programmatic and automated approach to many facets of the upgrade outside of the installation and conversion.

In plain English, upgrades are a technical project.  While there are many business aspects and tasks related to an upgrade, the upgrade must be controlled by a thoroughly knowledgeable technical manager.  The tasks must be planned and executed as a technical project would, with clearly defined specifications and deliverables.  This is what we refer to as "clinical execution".  By giving deadlines to both the project and phases, you can formulate a plan based on priorities and give your team clear expectations. Your team must understand that every portion will be tracked in a lifecycle, and responsibilities clearly defined.
