Companies who wish to implement a digitisation process are faced with a myriad of problems. Project failures are all too common - some make the headlines, the vast majority are quickly forgotten. The reasons for failure are wide and varied. Some common causes are:

• Lack of co-ordination of resources and activities
• Lack of communication with interested parties, leading to products being delivered which are not what the customer wanted
• Poor estimation of duration and costs, leading to projects taking more time and costing more money than expected
• Insufficient measurables
• Inadequate planning of resources, activities, and scheduling
• Lack of control over progress so that projects do not reveal their exact status until too late

Without the correct experience and knowledge, those who commission a digitisation project, those who manage it and those who work on it will have different ideas about how things should be organised and when the different aspects of the project will be completed.

Employing the services of a DTL consultant to audit your business processes and information management gives a more independent professional assessment backed by the experience of many years operational and implementation experience. We are an independent company who are not tied to any specific manufacturer’s products. Therefore we can offer independent advice tailored specifically to your organisations requirements.

In addition to consultancy we can offer full project management and implementation services.
