At COSS Systems the Professional Services Group oversee the implementation of the software, ongoing skills development at our customer sites, and product and industry training.

The COSS implementation strategy is simple:

	Generate quotes efficiently and accurately. Use templates, and copy and paste capability from other quotations or templatesBuild solid lines of communication with customers to meet the project objectives on time and on budget
	Develop an implementation methodology based upon a practical evaluation of your company needs and staff requirements.
	Provide a wide-range of services and expertise from dedicated professionals experienced in the implementation, training and support of companies like yours
	Deliver resources and support that fit your organizational requirements, allowing you to stay on track and complete your implementation as smoothly as possible

For each project we undertake we bring years of practical experience in various manufacturing and business organizations, detailed knowledge from the shop floor, and an understanding of the requirements of the executive offices.  At COSS we seek project management, analytical, and training staff that have implemented the software at other manufacturers, and know the issues your team face.  The combination of expertise and experience is invaluable in ensuring implementation success.

While each implementation is unique, reflecting your operating conditions, the team you have to implement the software and overall timing and budget variables, we can provide a brief description of the services we provide:

	Business analysis: An organizational profile of your firm including detailed flow charts of your current operating procedures. It is produced after an interviewing process with key members of your organization.
	Needs Analysis Documentation: Documenting our findings in a detailed report. It is used as the basis of the implementation plan used by our team.
