AvantGard Services

AvantGard offers a comprehensive approach to solution delivery allowing for rapid implementation and ongoing support aimed at reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and maximizing return on the investment in technology.

The AvantGard Professional Services team recognizes that technology solutions require a comprehensive approach to service delivery to deliver an on time and an on budget project. Additionally, they want to ensure that they will receive the benefits defined in the sales cycle and are well informed throughout the entire implementation process.

AvantGard solutions are offered in various deployment models including ASP, Hosted, and In-house implementations.  Each of these models offers a broad range of associated services including system integration, business process consulting, training, application management and ongoing support.

AvantGard offers a consulting methodology aimed at rapid, predictable, and successful project implementations. The methodology not only defines the primary processes and associated deliverables, but also specifies the overall implementation infrastructure, such as project management techniques and tools, data collection requirements, project reporting standards, and training goals.

Once live, the AvantGard Client Services team offers comprehensive technical and functional assistance through live help desks, online support and Client Summits / User Groups.
