Methodology
ERP
The advantages of having Cardinal Point on your team are numerous. For many years, our professional consultants have been implementing enterprise systems using well-proven and thoroughly tested methodologies. Our consultants, each with varied backgrounds, have received training and experience from “Big Six” as well as “Mid-Tier” firms. This translates to a methodology created by Cardinal Point that understands the value of large scale implementation approaches and combines it with the advantage of a small scale team that is logical, nimble, efficient and effective.
Our unique approach to fit-gap and design sessions features:
- Small audience, focused environment
- Focus on business processes
- Core team with hands-on approach to learning
- Power to the client—it’s your system
- Speed, Thoroughness, Quality
As the implementation or upgrade progresses to the testing phases, we have found it most beneficial for the internal project team to take more of a leadership role in the project. This is where the core project team transitions ownership to the end user community. This implementation model best sets the organization up for success upon go-live. The consultants leave behind confident and trained users with the knowledge and skills necessary to efficiently manage the business.

Business Intelligence
The Cardinal Point Business Intelligence team offers many advantages, our most significant advantage over our competitors is our methodology. We understand the differences between an ERP implementation and a BI Solution implementation, and we structure the teams and projects to specifically address those differences.
Our main goal is to make sure that through defining the proper roles and responsibilities and aligning them to the proper deliverables we will provide your business with true value when your project is complete. We accomplish this goal by strictly adhering to our “engage the business” approach. The Data Warehouse Institute, the premier educational institute for business intelligence and data warehousing, has published statistics showing that over 90% of failed BI projects result from a lack of business involvement. We provide our customers with the best project structure to engage the business, and quickly provide the business with value through phased deployments.
