Entrepreneurial Solutions for

Enterprise Application Transformation

Over 30 years experience creating effective, value-driven solutions.

Creative Solutions to Save You Time and Money

By leveraging decades of experience, Creative Communities can help clients plan, orchestrate, and/or execute large-scale packaged application initiatives. In other words, we focus upon all aspects any ERP, CRM, PLM, HCM, SCM, or other TLA implementation may involve.

Additionally, we also help clients recover failing programs and projects. While it's always better to start off correctly, too often initiatives find themselves in undesirable situations. Fortunately, just a few key changes in the right places often result in many positive impacts.

Of course, any initiative involving implementation of enterprise applications is also a transformative undertaking. Accordingly, our solutions for Global 2000 clients strive to improve productivity and increase ROI for any type of transformation, digital- or otherwise.

We promote individual productivity applied to a ‘Community of Practice’ approach.

We offer Trusted Advice for Executives and Senior Management.

Don’t waste precious resources reinventing wheels.  If you’ve not traveled a path before, hire a Guide to save you time, money, and anguish.

We strive to enable people – your people, your customers' people, perhaps even your vendors’ people – to work more efficiently and effectively.

Our goal is to be a force multiplier.  It’s not only about what we can do.  It’s also about what we can empower your teams to do, now and in the future.

We are your insurance policy.  We strive to provide at least a 10-fold return on your investment in us by helping you avoid unnecessary costs and/or accelerating value delivery.

Minor Investment with Major Returns

We do not deploy teams of consultants.  Rather, Creative Communities provides a few - or even one - individuals in key positions. In effect, their expertise helps clients align people, process, technology, and data across different aspects of an initiative. Our efforts enable all stakeholders to function as a more cohesive, productive group, focused upon the right business and IT objectives.

To clarify, we do not staff projects.  Nor do we not seek to replace anyone's vendors, partners, or staff.  Instead, what we offer is an independent perspective, based on a wealth of knowledge and experience. To emphasize, no politics, no ulterior motives, no seeking to expand our footprint or sales. Indeed, our only intent is to help ensure success by better enabling those involved to achieve better returns on investments being made.

Engagement Indicators

Ideally, engage our Services as early as possible to receive the most value. In most cases, we can help steer initiatives towards more effective actions and away from those likely to cause problems down the road. For initiatives which are well under way, sample symptoms of major improvement opportunities include:

  • Everybody is busy, but not achieving desired results.
  • Costs and timelines grow, but without the addition of corresponding value.
  • It is unclear (or unknown) whether efforts support business strategy and objectives.

In fact, each case involves an unnecessary waste of resources. We can fix that. Moreover, we can address situations such as: where an individuals or team(s) limit progress; where goals change faster than can be achieved; or where multiple projects or teams are misaligned or in conflict.

Approach

In general, we work across both IT and Business functions an initiative - or set of initiatives - affects. Specifically, we identify and assess improvement opportunities that may relate to people and organization, process, technology, and/or data. Thereafter, we design changes to address selected and prioritized problems.

In effect, these changes enable groups and organizations to achieve desired goals. For instance, improper alignment or inconsistent use of Agile practices frequently impair progress, increase costs, and frustrate stakeholders. Indeed, there are many simple solutions available to address such challenges.
