SPOT CONSULTING
 
SKILLS TRANSFER
 
Ledge takes a supportive team-work approach to all client assignments. Working closely with your staff to achieve skills-transfer is an important factor for success. We will help you create a team with appropriate skills for each element of the project and the project team will be complemented by members from Ledge, to provide the independent, objective consultant’s perspective and experience. This enables us to be responsive to you in reviewing processes whilst maintaining a realistic project cost structure.
 

RISK MANAGEMENT - QUALITY

 
To maintain high standards and ensure client satisfaction, all Ledge-managed projects are controlled by the quality procedures described in our Quality System. The primary objective of the quality system is to ensure that your requirements are met and potentially exceeded, and is used as the means of controlling all Ledge client facing activities.
 

The Quality System aims to provide and ensure:

• a structured approach to programme and project management and costing
• a structured approach to system design and system build
• a structured approach to all levels of testing
• consistency of documentation across projects
• client education and training
• effective review throughout all stages of your project
• ease for client to own and maintain implemented system
 


FUNCTIONALITIES
 
Ledge combines in-depth business understanding with best practices in programme, project management and systems implementation. This quality of resources enables us to arrive at solutions which deliver substantial business benefits. Assisting our clients to manage their major change process, under a tried and tested implementation methodology, ensures quality-controlled, results-focused work throughout the entire life-cycle of the programme. This methodology ensures essential co-ordination of business design and software implementation.
 
We employ consultants who are not limited to specific SAP modules but focus primarily on the underlying business process such as:

• logistics, both in-bound and out-bound
• finance
• manufacturing
• human capital management
 

SPEED OF DELIVERY
 
Ledge’s implementation methodology harnesses the advantages of practical experience and the benefits offered by technology to cut project deadlines and implementation costs. Known for our ability to meet aggressive but realistic deadlines, we generate and communicate programme and project momentum through close-knit team structures. When working on a programme of business change, we remain focused on the client’s vision and strategy, and concentrate on those areas that will help the client achieve their stated aims. We recommend change only where it will positively impact return on investment and profitability.

 
Our proven experience in rapid deployment is underlined by our being certified as SAP’s All-In-One business partner – which stresses minimum consulting deployment while not sacrificing quality of implementation.
 


PROFESSIONAL PARTNERSHIP
 
Whilst maintaining an independent view, we recognise the importance of partnerships, working with both software and hardware suppliers. Besides being a certified SAP Business Partner, we are also certified by SAP as a SAP Support Center. We also maintain working relationships with leading suppliers such as IBM and HP. Our work in enterprise application integration certifies us as a Microsoft Partner and RosettaNet partner.
