ANALYSIS & DESIGN

Our goal with every project is to have complete buy-in from all stakeholders before the proposed solution is presented to the Steering Team at the end of Phase 2. AIT makes sure your Business Reengineering Team does both the analytical work to derive the best technical solution AND communicates to a level necessary to mobilize the organization for rapid implementation. The Phase 2 definition of success is to have the Steering Team ask, "How quickly can you implement?"
