How we work with you
The primary aim for your business
Our primary aim for your business is to identify tasks and processes that are currently performed inefficiently, and to streamline them. In research from the US, it was identified that managers spent an average of 4 hours per week searching for badly filed or lost paperwork. That’s one month per year.
What to expect
By using the Filemaker 15 platform, KRCS can create affordable, yet completely customised applications for your business. It can be accessed using dedicated Filemaker applications on iPad, Mac and PC, or via any modern web browser on iOS, Mac OS X and Windows. Your data, available wherever and whenever you need it.
We’re sure that once you see how Filemaker can transform your business you’ll identify other ways it could be used. We’ll keep talking and working together for as long as you wish.
1. Learn about your business
We listen to your needs and understand your real-world business issues, and right away have ideas on how KRCS and Filemaker can solve them. Our consultants are business people with a deep knowledge of Filemaker. You’ll be amazed what we can suggest in an initial meeting.
2. Agree the project scope
Together we’ll agree on what we are looking to achieve in the first phase. Is it a small system to streamline one inefficient process, or are you looking to transform your business with a big Filemaker system designed just for you?
3. Agree proposal and pricing
We’ll write down exactly what our proposal is, what it will do, and what it won’t do. You’ll know exactly what you’ll be getting and exactly how much it will cost. We offer fixed price quotes for a defined solution.
4. Development phase
Rather than disappearing for weeks, we’ll give you updates and show you what progress we have made at regular intervals. It’s better that we respond to any feedback from you early, so that the system is just what you wanted by the time it is complete.
5. Presentation of solution
Since you’ve had regular updates, the final solution should be just what you were expecting. We’ll demonstrate what we have done, demonstrate how it fits the brief, and take any feedback for final amendments from you.
6. Data migration trial
We'll need to get a sample of your live data from your existing systems, and understand exactly what challenges that might present. Data from legacy systems can come in all shapes and sizes, and we need to prevent problems at the go-live stage.
7. Testing & sign off
Having migrated your real data, we’ll test the system to ensure it works well with your business data. You need to be happy with the new system, and we will work with you to get the final sign-off and plan a go-live date.
8. Live install & training
Our go-live plan will give you details of what to expect on the go-live date and how we'll train your staff. We’ll be on hand, or at the end of a phone, to work through any teething issues. We can remotely access your databases if you give us permission and make any quick changes as needed.
Sign up to receive your free wireframe model
Your welcome email will contain a link to claim this free service. If you request it, we'll give you a call to understand your business requirements, and then create a prototype of a system so you can see what is possible in Filemaker with KRCS. If you don’t need that right now, then please sign up anyway, and we’ll keep you updated with Filemaker info, ideas and offers.
