Working with our consultants to get the best results

During this stage of the project, our teams are focused on performing the necessary consulting to ensure that your digital workplace plan aligns with the implementation and build of your site.  

To achieve this, our consulting teams perform three types of consulting sessions:

  1. Strategic consulting
  2. Solution consulting
  3. Design consulting

Generally, these sessions are performed over the phone with the key stakeholder groups. It is imperative that your teams are prepared before the session and you have staff with the right skills and experienced staff on the call. Consulting sessions are generally 45 to 90 minutes in length.

Note: Sessions can be also done on site as requested.
