Real Results Consulting - Services

More often than not, a new technology doesn't live up to it's sales presentation right "out of the box". New technologies must be integrated, customized or configured to work in your environment. That's where Real Results Consulting shines. Since we learn your business prior to working with your technology, we will understand how data needs to be integrated or what functionality needs to be enabled. Therefore, we can help extract real value from your systems. This is what we mean when we say that Real Results Consulting can enable your technology investment to achieve real results.

We specialize is four areas to maximize the results you get from your technology:

IT Planning

Real Results Consulting understands that your time would be better spent growing your business rather than working through technology issues. However, addressing technology issues needs to be done to ensure new technology will fit in your environment.

We will document your technology infrastructure's current state and identify current or potential issues. Doing this and discussing your goals, we will develop a road map to the future state and identify where efficiencies or cost savings can be found. The road map is extremely helpful when decisions are being made about new technology purchases, enhancing existing systems or hiring new personnel

Included in the current and future state documents is both a narrative and process models. The models quickly and easily illustrate interactions between systems and the narrative provides necessary detail to understand the nature and severity of issues.

Project Management

You have talented IT personnel. You have executive sponsorship. You have accurate requirements defined. What else do you need to make a project successful? ...a good project manager.

To ensure the project stays on track, you need an effective project manager. A good project manager is thinking two steps ahead of the project, identifies issues and works to resolve them before they significantly affect the project.

Real Results Consulting can provide you with just such a project manager. We use the globally recognized project management framework from the Project Management Institute (PMI) to ensure that all areas of the project are working effectively. A few examples of the standard deliverables during a project are:

Regular progress reports to management and the team
Risk assessment and mitigation plan
Developing quality assurance plans

Web Design

Many companies can develop your website. Some may even be able to provide slick graphics and interesting designs. Real Results Consulting takes it an extra step. We work with you to understand what differentiates your company from your competitors - your competitive advantage.

We believe that only by understanding your business in this way will you be able to fully harness the power of the Internet. In today's business environment, it is not enough to just have a web presence. Your company needs a web presence that sets it apart from competitors and engages your customers.

Data Warehousing

Your company probably has data in many different systems, Access databases and even Excel spreadsheets. In order to get the "big picture" of your company's performance, disparate data has to be integrated.

The challenge is to bring all the relevant data together and make sense of it. It is challenging because different systems: may define common items slightly differently, there may be data quality issues or different systems may produce data at differing granularities.

Real Results Consulting will work with your data and systems to understand the nuances and differences. After gaining this understanding, we can create data models that integrate subject areas of your business. Both logical and physical data models can be created to provide multiple levels of detail to share within your organization. We also can facilitate the purchase of database, extraction/transformation/load (E/T/L) and business intelligence tools to enable the integration.
