Case studies of Project Management Consulting

Here are some of our typical projects.

1. Global uniform accounting system: Project to reduce indirect departmental costs and standardize accounting systems in locations and at local organizations throughout Japan, Asia, Oceania, China, North America, South America, and Europe.
2. Global CRM System: Project to implement a system to expand sales by developing new products and doing sales activities in a timely manner by sharing information about customers and sales opportunities with areas and local subsidiaries throughout Japan, Asia, China, North America, and Europe.
3. Global procurement system: Project to implement a system to gather supplier information and estimate information and to reduce procurement costs based on this information.
4. IT shared services: Project to implement a system to reduce IT operation costs by centralizing IT systems to create a shared service for multiple locations in ASEAN countries.

Here are some of our typical roles.

1. Project leader support to handle steering and formulation of project planning proposals
2. Formulation and support of project management plans (problem management, quality management, revision management, et cetera) for global projects
3. Coordination in various ways, acting as intermediary for user sectors and global multi-vendors

We identify the following issues as we move forward on projects.

1. We set common goals for a project based on the differences in the position and roles of project members (such as business departments and IS departments) for sharing and consensus building.
2. We anticipate the risks inherent in a particular project, make the project leader aware of countermeasures, and assign resources to implement protective measures (so that risks do not materialize).
3. We provide service users who are not experienced at choosing requirements with suitable counseling to lead them to decisions.
4. We confidently provide stakeholders with accurate steering information to guide their decisions.
5. We collaborate with system installation teams to maintain motivation during the rough times when systems are unstable.
6. We consolidate multi-national partners who may have conflicting opinions.
7. We quickly find out about local rules, such as tax rules and regulations in different countries.
8. We use our global network to eliminate time differences.

We can give you the following examples.

1. EBSS can provide practical support aimed at best practices and can consider things from the standpoints of various project members, thanks to our many consultants who have abundant experience in implementation and have backgrounds at development vendors and IS departments in business companies.
2. With our background in operational know-how, such as sales management, production management, and accounting that we mastered through Oracle EBS installation projects, we are able to control projects by anticipating actual operations.
3. We have many global staff in our long-term overseas dispatch system to provide support through our overseas network in the long term.
4. We can rapidly engage in project support because we have prepared "Key success tools", documents that are needed for project management to lead a project to success.
