In the years 1989 to 2003, Dean enjoyed a very successful consulting practice as a truly independent and unbiased software selection consultant — helping over 100 clients select & implement enterprise software.

Understand your current processes With every client, Dean extolled the benefits of the USA Principle Almost every client was surprised to find that the single greatest value that they got from their "automation" project came in the "simplify" steps.

And the biggest benefit that you will get out of this entire process is to Simplify your processes. Rather than paving your winding cow paths (with automation systems that will lock them in like cement), we want to straighten them out into freeways — and then automate those simplified systems. |
Attentive Support One huge advantage of working with Systems2win is that we are a small company.
That means that when you call for technical support — You usually speak directly with the owner of the company — the person that designed the templates in the first place. A seasoned consultant who can answer your questions to get your improvement efforts back on track quickly.
