Situation

Our client was an educational facility in the process of implementing a new IT system within the Human Resources department. The organization needed to find new ways to deal with inadequate functionality in the system.

Challenges

The main challenges we faced on this project included:

  • Meeting time-sensitive deadlines for dealing with the issues
  • Addressing the financial aspects of the project
  • Working with the debate on decisions to be made in the area

Actions

To address these challenges, our consultants:

  • Identified what the requirements of the organization were in this realm
  • Conducted an in-depth financial analysis of each of the options for dealing with the problem – from overhauling this aspect of the system to outsourcing

Results

At the conclusion of the project all the key success factors had been achieved, and the client was highly satisfied with the project deliverables and the value added by Schroeder & Schroeder Inc. Our actions resulted in:

  • A sound cost benefit analysis of the options and a recommendation that was implemented and ultimately resulted in positive outcomes for the organization
