Standard software is installed and the process of fine-tuning the entire system to your precise requirements enters its second phase. A demonstration database is set up (using real business data wherever possible) and reliable back-up procedures are put in place, in anticipation of going live.
Your project team pilots the software within your own business. Typical transactions are carried out, and the results used to refine your agreed business processes and key business documents. Reports are carefully tailored and final adjustments made in line with the System Design Document. Your system is now configured for day to day operation.
