RedHammer's Software Selection Approach

Assess Your Team’s Capabilities

Assess your team’s skills, availability, and capacity for software implementation. Identify gaps in areas like chart of accounts and cost codes. RedHammer fills those gaps to align the software with your business vision.

Perform a thorough cleanup and reconciliation of financial data. Focus on master data like customers, vendors, and jobs to ensure accuracy, setting a solid foundation for a smooth software implementation and reliable financial management.

Hiring an Implementation Specialist

Use RedHammer as your implementation specialist. We guide you through vendor demos, proof-of-concepts, and final solution validation, minimizing risks and ensuring the software aligns perfectly with your business requirements and processes.
