Strategic Services
Today, shareholders and executives demand that IT projects are justified along financial and
organizational lines. In order to help executives address these challenges, BTRG has developed
a suite of Strategic Services designed to guide executive decision making at the early stages.
Below is a listing of the Strategic Services BTRG provides:
Software Selection – BTRG follows an experience-based methodology to take a comprehensive approach
toward software selection. We bring in Senior IT leaders along with tools & templates to facilitate the
decision making process. Objectivity is a key ingredient to proper software selection. Our consulting
team facilitates the decision making process and advises key stakeholders - we do not decide the outcome.
The five step process follows these high level steps:

Software Roadmap & Implementation Strategy – Every good roadmap and implementation
strategy should define an approach that is sensitive to the needs of the client. We work to ensure
there is equilibrium between the business requirements, proposed budget, personnel needed and risk
levels associated with an implementation. Our deliverable associated with this service outlines Project
Vision, “As Is” Processes \ High Level Requirements, Phases, Timelines, Level of Effort, Risks and Software
Module Recommendations.
ERP Functional Assessment - The ERP Functional Assessment Solution is the cumulative result
of in-depth business process analysis and recommendations on how to leverage your systems to
provide more effective enterprise resource planning. Typically we find that customers only
use 60% - 75% of the delivered functionality in an ERP system. Once we uncover the reasons for
this during the business process analysis, we recommend alternatives to unlock new capabilities
which might have been unknown to internal staff. The scope of the assessment includes:
- Opportunities to leverage better integration
- Recommendations on how to better use delivered functions
- Recommendations on how other customers use core and advanced functions in creative way, to extend the value of their investment
- Recommendations on additional software modules that would reduce the need to 3rd party software
- Recommendations on the directions to take with your ERP from a technology point of view, that will enable extended functional and business process benefits
Integration Management for Mergers & Acquisition – This solution offering helps IT organizations
plan, manage and execute growth strategies associated with combining complex systems from multiple
companies. Some of the key decisions points BTRG helps address during merger and acquisition activity include:

Business Process Improvement – Since 1993, BTRG has approached the implementation of software as a way to
improve business processes. Our solution to improvement follows a step by step approach that gets results fast.
