Needs Assessment

CIGNEX offers our customers the opportunity to have a knowledgeable outsider assess the specific needs of their organization - what's working, what can be improved, who is impacted, and what solution will yield the largest return on their investment.

After successfully implementing more than 50 large-scale open source ECM solutions, CIGNEX is uniquely capable of quickly and efficiently working with our customers to thoroughly understand requirements and build optimal solutions. We've developed a straightforward 3-step initial engagement model to assess needs, estimate project scope, and identify dependencies and resource requirements. This phase, which lasts from 2 to 4 weeks, ensures that all requirements, dependencies, and expectations are uncovered in advance - mitigating risks and maximizing project ROI.

According to AIIM (Association for Information and Image Management), the #1 issue when deploying new ECM applications is planning and management. Customers that have worked with us on formal needs assessment projects have invariably found that this phase helped them to:

  • reduce expenditures
  • identify previously unknown requirements
  • streamline processes
  • save time
