This is another view of some consulting we are doing at Fusion5, to help our clients understand and implement a continuous improvement process for their JD Edwards.
You can get a maturity assessment at any time to determine whether you modular usage is transactional or transformative. JD Edwards has evolved over time, but what we often see is that clients are not evolving the way that they are using JD Edwards.
If you implemented JD Edwards 10 – 15 years ago, chances are
that you are not making the most of base features and potentially not improving
the user experience with all of the new UDOs (User Defined Objects).
At Fusion5 we are spearheading a new way of measuring our
clients maturity in how they have implemented their JD Edwards modules and then
assist them to get more! We have a tried
and tested method of determining where our clients sit, on a module by module
basis. We use a data centric method,
which has been developed over the last 10 years to provide unequivocal insights
into what programs are being used in JD Edwards and therefore reverse engineer
processes.
We then can plug in our dashboards to show you exactly where
you sit, in your implementation from a number of perspectives. We actually give your implementation a score
out of 10, in terms of the maturity of the implementation, and then, of course give
you a path / plan to improve that score and the types of benefits that the
business will receive.
For example, you can see from the above all of the standard
modules in JD Edwards and then which programs in each of the modules are being
used. This immediately gives us a data
based view on the modular usage, we can quickly tell you any new programs or
batch jobs that have been released that you are not using.
We can quickly look at all of the batch jobs as well, to
understand if you have processing or queuing problems, or that you might not be
running important integrity jobs.
This laser focus on actual usage data, makes it VERY easy
for us to turn this into process knowledge.
We can then look at key users and key programs for additional analysis.
Remember, that this does not stop at programs, this is just
the beginning. Fusion5 can look at individual
forms or versions of programs and UBEs – to completely understand what is going
on in JD Edwards.
When you support your analysis and decisions making with actual
data, then any changes that you make to the system will be revealed in the
ongoing data analysis. This is where
Fusion5 can shine. We can show you the
difference that are being seen in the actual usage of JD Edwards. We can tell you %’s of improvement, whether
that is engagement time, pages loaded or performance of screens.
We have unique insights into daily usage and can track
particular modules and particular UDO’s to ensure that your users are getting
the training and that it’s making a difference.
We can help you develop online content and training materials to ensure
that the UDO adoption is working – and we measure the success.
We actively manage and measure this with our customers and
coach them through the implementation and measurement. We can schedule the delivery of all these
reports so that you do not need to learn a new BI tool.
Note that Fusion5 provide the data sources, the base reports
and the development environment for you to extend the standard reports that we
deliver, you options for reporting are unlimited.
Our packages can just be a one off analysis and review, or
can be based on a continuous improvement mode, where we actively engage with
you and provide recommendations on your system continuously. We can review your UDOs, module usage and
performance on a regular basis. This is
a perfect service if you want to upgrade JD Edwards regularly – as we can also
assist you measure your success.
