Fit
You probably need this if
- You're opening in a second country and assuming the current setup will simply extend
- Nobody has checked what data-residency rules apply where you're going
- Connectivity and power assumptions were made from a South African baseline
- Head-office systems will need to work over links you don't control
- Local operations will need to keep running when the link to head office drops
Scope
What the engagement covers
Market-by-market infrastructure assessment
Connectivity, power, hosting options and what is realistically available at each site rather than what the map suggests.
Regulatory and data-residency position
Where data may be stored and processed, what crosses a border, and what that requires before it happens rather than after.
Integration architecture
How each site talks to head office, and, more importantly, how it keeps operating when it can't.
Operational readiness
Support model, escalation, local versus central responsibility, and who fixes what at 2am in a different time zone.
Phased rollout plan
Sequenced by market, with the dependencies and the costs that only appear at the second and third site.
Process
How it runs
Every engagement starts the same way, whichever service you need.
A conversation
You tell us what's going on. We ask what you're running, what it costs and where it hurts, and we tell you plainly whether we can help. No sales deck.
Findings & proposal
A written view of priorities, sequencing and cost, with the trade-offs stated plainly. You'll know what we'd do first and why.
Execution & oversight
We stay accountable for delivery: vendor governance, architecture decisions and the board-level reporting that keeps technology on the agenda.
Independence
We're nobody's reseller
We take no licence margin on SAP, Oracle, JD Edwards, Sage or any CRM. There's no partner relationship to protect and no rebate behind the recommendation, so when we tell you which option to take, the recommendation is the whole business case. We have also made the expensive mistakes already (vendor lock-in, an integration that looked fine in the demo, a migration that ran long) on our own balance sheet rather than yours.
