The SoftwareOne Diagnostic Platform process
The SoftwareOne Diagnostic platform takes between six to eight weeks to complete. This thorough assessment progresses over the course of three steps:
Step one: Process assessment in alignment with the ISO standard
SoftwareOne examines the entire lifecycle of your software. This begins with catalog management and follows every step of an asset’s life cycle until it is retired or taken out of service.
We determine how your processes currently function, how well they perform, and how much conformity they are to today’s ISO standards.
Step two: Tooling assessment
In this step, we analyze your technology to determine if it will aid in software or hardware asset management (asset discovery, active directory, normalization, configuration management, deployment, change, etc.). When the analysis is complete, we make recommendations on the best tools available based on your business requirements.
As a provider and critical user of many of these technologies, we often know what tools work best.
Step three: Develop a return on investment (ROI) business case
Gathering all the information we’ve compiled, we review your options for the next steps. We explain the impact of recommended investments on your business, how much of an investment your company will need to approve, and, once approved, the associated ROI you can expect to realize over the next five years.
Because SoftwareOne is technology agnostic, we present your enterprise with the best possible solutions. Using PyraCloud, we can deliver our assessment to you in an automated form, clearly defining our recommendations for your next best steps.
Historically, companies who take advantage of SoftwareOne’s Diagnostic Platform Service realize an ROI of five times their investment. That means your organization can expect this service to more than pay for itself over time.
