What is the Bridge Workshop?
The Bridge Workshop consists of a series of functional and technical engagements led by one of our Senior Consultants. During these sessions, a team of technology and process optimization experts will work alongside your team to get an end-to-end understanding of your business processes (and identify where technology can drive the most value). This will involve the following:
1: Initial Consultation and Needs Assessment
Our team will meet with your key stakeholders to understand your organization’s unique needs and challenges. Then, we’ll discuss your goals for the system implementation, current pain points, and desired outcomes.
2: Detailed Process Mapping and Analysis
OSI will conduct a comprehensive analysis of your current business processes across all business functions. This includes documenting workflows, identifying inefficiencies, and understanding interdependencies. We can better evaluate how these processes will fit within potential technology systems by mapping them out in detail.
3: Capability Evaluation of Systems
Our team will evaluate the capabilities of various systems against your documented requirements. This involves comparing features, functionalities, and integration capabilities to ensure the proposed system upgrades can support your business processes effectively. In addition, we’ll conduct live demonstrations and prototyping sessions to give you a hands-on understanding of each system.
4: Fit-Gap Analysis and Solution Design
Through a detailed fit-gap analysis, we identify opportunities to use standard functionalities to save time and costs, while identifying customizations that are high value to ensure your project design (and budget) are properly considered.
5: Risk Assessment and Mitigation Planning
We assess potential risks associated with the implementation including operational, financial, and technical risks. Our consultants will develop a mitigation plan to address these risks, ensuring that your project stays on track and within budget. This proactive approach helps avoid unexpected issues during the implementation.
6: Implementation Roadmap and Final Report
At the end of the workshop, OSI will provide a comprehensive implementation roadmap. Our project documentation includes a detailed project plan, timelines, resource allocation, and budget estimates. The final report documents all findings, recommendations, and next steps, giving you a clear path forward for your implementation.

Once we establish your desired end result, OSI will create a comprehensive road map in order to achieve it.
