Strategic planning

Strategic planning for your business

Four offers strategic planning services to help assess your contract management requirements and create a customised implementation plan. System planning helps organisations assess their specific contract management requirements. Our experienced consultants will make recommendations to fit your situation and provide customised implementation plans.

We’ll carry out an in-depth needs assessment of your current contract management business processes, which will involve on and off-site meetings with your key business users and stakeholders. Throughout this discovery phase, we audit your existing processes, physical and logical systems, and your actual contracts. This enables us to determine the most effective deployment of Contract Insight.

Deployment recommendations

Our highly-qualified consultants will provide tried and tested recommendations, optimising the use of Contract Insight in the following key areas:

  • software deployment
  • departmental configuration
  • data conversion/import services
  • contract data breakdown
  • attachment standardising
  • reporting management
  • systems integration overview
  • supplier/customer management
  • security and permissions
  • alerts and e-mail notifications
  • contract modelling
  • workflow processes
  • dashboards management.

Implementation plan

You’ll be given a fully-documented, comprehensive implementation plan, detailing the process to ensure a smooth transition from your existing contract management systems to Contract Insight, our recommended solution. Contract Insight utilises enterprise-grade architecture and can be deployed in a hosted environment, as a client-deployed application or as a service application.  Every system we deploy allows for full configuration of screen views, employee roles and permissions and fields and types of information needed. This ability to configure the system to your specifications helps manage the complexity of your information, while ensuring consistency and highly visible, accessible data across your organisation.
