Proven Implementation Approach
All dTIMS implementations follow a process that has been used successfully for all of our implementations. We feel this process allows us to follow a structured implementation plan, yet allowing us to inject flexibility into the final solution as required and appropriate. Furthermore, best practice is always considered during the implementation, and one of our roles is to align the best practice with the business process of the client.
Knowledge Transfer
Deighton firmly believes that knowledge is best transferred when Deighton and the client form a collaborative partnership during the development of the solution. This means that rather than a turn-key approach, clients are actively involved in the development process during each phase of the project. This affords the best capture of the business processes and allows staged review of the deliverables along the way. The client team learns along the way and has a much more vested interest in the outcome since they were a part of the development process.
Documentation & Rigid Quality Control
Every dTIMS Solution includes delivery, installation, and testing of the software as well as customizations in the client environment. To ensure the proper setup, an installation guide is provided at the start of software installation. This documentation includes details on customizations, connection, and integration with external systems.
Testing includes automated testing (shown), unit, and system testing to verify that the software or customizations function correctly in the client environment, and that all components and integrations work as designed.
Training & Certification
Deighton’s training consists of technical theory, instructions, video learning, self-paced tutorials and hands-on operations with the development version of your system. Certification in dTIMS is available through dTIMS Peer Exchanges or the Deighton User Conference.
