How to get started
Initial assessment
We meet with you to gather detailed information about your needs and priorities, then create an initial estimate and contract for the discovery phase.
Discovery
We review your existing data collection tools, processes, and software to identify integration and streamlining opportunities, then determine which forms and data tools to utilize and customize for your organization’s unique needs.
Project kickoff
We meet with your staff and stakeholders to review the build process and timeline, create a check-in schedule, and identify the key decision makers for the project.
Implementation
We actively build a fully-customized database based on the project requirements and scope. During this time, we discuss our progress, address challenges, and align our next steps. We also share demos and works-in-progress for your review and approval.
Training
We assist with initial setup and conduct hands-on training sessions to guide staff through the functionality and workflows. We provide detailed standard operating procedures and how-to guides to help users navigate the system with confidence.
Ongoing technical assistance
Once your system is fully implemented, we offer troubleshooting assistance, answer questions, and help with system updates and maintenance. We can make adjustments based on your evolving business needs, adjusting workflows and automations where necessary.
