Why Work With an EHS Digital Consultant?

Achieving a strong degree of user adoption for a digital solution is a challenge.  It can be easy to over-engineer the solution when the design process focuses on recreating an existing tool or taking advantage of solution features that don’t add value to the client-specific work process.  ALL4’s experienced consultants help avoid these pitfalls, help select a solution that fits the need, and guide the process of gaining stakeholder acceptance of the solution.

How Can ALL4 Help?

ALL4’s EHS Digital Solutions consultants are known for delivering “fit-for-purpose” solutions that balance staying close to “out of the box” with accommodating any tailoring necessary to provide a positive user experience.  Our hybrid-agile delivery approach is structured to build stakeholder buy-in from day one and avoid significant gaps between expectations and reality being discovered at UAT and to support the development of in-house skillsets to independently maintain and evolve the system.  Of course, ALL4 is available to provide on-going support where desired, but we seek to avoid leaving anyone with a “black box.”

The foundation of this process is inclusion of business analysis techniques to explore and confirm shared understanding of solution requirements either as an initial project phase where re-engineering and/or harmonization of the business process is desired or during design where an effective business process is already established.  Our team is transparent about how requirements can be met (standard configuration, complex configuration, work-around, customization, etc.) and the best way to meet the requirement—we communicate with the team when design requests do not conform with best practices and could result in a poor user experience or a fragile/hard to maintain system.

Once a design is established, we provide the client access/visibility to the configured solution in sprints of related features and provide an opportunity to refine the design as needed to achieve a user-friendly experience.  Bringing the team along in this way provides for a high level of user adoption as it provides planned opportunities for feedback and optimization and reduces issues with training gaps resulting in a much smoother UAT.
