When you are wanting to implement a business system, the essential first stage is to conduct a thorough review of requirements and to use that as the basis for specifying the features and functions that you need and how you would like your major business processes to work.

All too often buyers neglect this first stage, with the result that the final choice of software is difficult to make and any implementation likely to be less than ideal. Many organisations use only a fraction of the potential power of a business software system for precisely this reason.

To carry out this phase effectively, you need to know the right questions to ask, and here involving an expert usually pays dividends. While it increases costs at the start of the process, it will pay for itself many times during the working life of the system.

DaybookÕs expert advisors can help you carry out this process, regardless of whether you wish to consider Daybook as a provider of the system or not. They would not normally get involved in the procurement process, but would enable you to embark on that process certain of what you need and why.
