UPGRADE YOUR JDE SOLUTION FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE AND LONG-TERM SUCCESS

Concept

The JD Edwards Upgrade Assessment is a comprehensive analysis of the customer's J.D. Edwards environment and user community resulting in specific courses of action for upgrade with recommendations to enhance functionality, boost performance, and improve the user skill base.

Objective

On-site meeting with the customer's team to review business conditions
Comprehensive review of J.D. Edwards software applications
Detailed analysis of the J.D Edwards technical infrastructure
System management and end-user skill assessments and training paths
Support structure overview and connections to resources

The investigation focuses on both the effective use of technology, and whether the technology employed is meeting the current and/or future needs of the organization. Several process areas are targeted depending on which JD Edwards modules are in use. Technical implementation issues are also addressed. System software configuration, software limitations, user access, and training issues are used to develop an action plan to close the gap between the current situation and original objectives.

Duration

The typical high-level JD EdwardsUpgrade Assessment can be completed 2-4 week period. two weeks are required at the client site by a senior professional, with two weeks allotted for deliverable preparation. A detailed JD EdwardsUpgrade Assessment typically takes twice as long.
