Two mature international product companies were purchased by a private equity company and merged. Post-merger they brought in a “Big 4 Consulting” company to help stand up the new organization’s operations. As part of the charter of activities, they put new systems in place to help the new integrated company scale and run their business with data.
Moving from on-premise to SaaS infrastructure is important to keeping the hospitality vertical efficient. This cost-effective strategy resulted in reduced spend on IT and provided additional dollars for other areas of the business.
“We used 5P Consulting to advise on and customize a Salesforce platform, integrate our contact information and associated data and provide software training. We were hesitant because, as a nonprofit, we had not hired outside consulting firms for business integration as that is a non-programmatic “spend”. However, 5P Consulting was worth every dime! They provided their services cost-effectively, professionally and really listened to what we wanted in order to deliver the accurate end product. They were particularly great about follow-up, wrapping up more quickly than I expected what could have been a long and tedious project.”
