Sogeti’s Package Based Solutions (PBS) offering is designed to help clients best meet business needs through the selection and implementation of the most appropriate software solutions and associated processes. In today’s business, it is difficult to look for one business system to meet all critical needs. The PBS offering is utilized with clients to understand key business drivers, survey the best available software solutions, and help develop a Total Cost of Ownership summary for effective decision-making. Additionally, the PBS team is designed to support a couple of key packages with depth, including the Oracle product suite (Oracle 11i and JD Edwards), SAP, and Product Lifecycle Management packages (PLM). Too often, companies acquire and/or implement business system solutions that are not grounded in the core short-, and long-term financial and operational challenges of an organization. Engaging Sogeti and its PBS offering, a client will understand what business system options best address key business needs within the constraints of cost, company culture, complexity and long-term impact. This offering will allow an organization to fulfill critical business needs efficiently, with the least amount of disruption through the selection and implementation of the ‘right’ solution. Specific components of the PBS Solution include; Application Strategy development, Package Selection, Process Mapping, Business System Implementation, and Ongoing Maintenance & Support.
