ERP Systems Implementation – Implementing an ERP system is among the most expensive, time consuming and difficult task a company can undertake. An experienced, knowledgeable team is required for success. No two companies do business the same way. No two companies have identical employees. Understanding the business flow of our client is critical. Understanding one’s future expectations for the system is monumental. Understanding system capabilities of one’s employees is crucial. Hillway meets these needs of the client first and foremost. We are not partnered with any software company; so, our recommendations are not biased. The philosophy that a system is only as good as the USERS that USE it, is still a very, valid statement for a successful implementation.
Relational Database Design – Most modern day ERP Systems utilize a relational database management system (RDBMS) for data gathering i.e. oracle, SQL server. This brings a level of flexibility and continuity to help improve your competitive advantage. It is now much easier and more cost effective to get your software tailored to fit your business. Your business is unique. Do not tailor it to fit your software. New reports, screens, or additional fields are no longer costly or time consuming. A systems analyst, educated and experienced in relational database design, who just completed analyzing your existing business flow and understands your future expectations, can help you avoid expensive, less informed developers. Our team does not alter system data. We just link to the RDBMS and provide the client with more pertinent information to run the company more effectively.
Financial Systems Analysis – An ERP system is business management software, a suite of integrated applications, that an organization can use to collect, store, manage and interpret data from all business activities within the company. The driving force behind these applications is primarily the financial module. A financial systems analyst has a combination of education and experience in accounting and information technology. The primary role of the financial systems analyst is to analyze the programmed functionality of the ERP system as it pertains to the data collected in the finance, general ledger module. Also referred to as a “systems accountant”, the financial analyst’s effective management of this process and activity is essential to managing the integrity of the system. The Hillway team’s financial analyst has over 30 years providing this service.
