THE MAXAPPROACH

We understand the inherent complexities of implementing a field service management solution—we’ve been doing it for years. By utilizing the consultative strengths and domain expertise within our Professional Services team, the MaxApproach serves as the vehicle for realizing your vision. Its objective is to guide you on a path to sustained success, starting with a fast go-live and early wins. We work with you to understand your objectives, with a focus on measurable outcomes and with time-to-value “top of mind.” We design a repeatable, scalable solution that is configured to your requirements and based on service execution best practices. Our team prioritizes user acceptance, adoption, and ongoing learning as critical to ensuring implementation success.

PLAN

The first interaction between the customer and ServiceMax Professional Services sets the tone for the success of the project. In this stage we introduce our methodology, communication, and education plans, and establish the project governance structure. Key activities include an onsite discovery session, solution and release planning and the business requirements signoff. The outcome is mutual alignment around requirements and metrics for success.

BUILD

Using the release point framework and sprint cycles of the solution and release plan, ServiceMax begins requirement-specific configuration with the goal of demonstrating value quickly. Customers have the opportunity to begin testing and prepare for User Acceptance Testing in the next stage. Important outcomes include feature acceptance signoff and validation of the end user training materials.

ROLLOUT

Any successful rollout depends on thorough testing and training. This stage focuses on User Acceptance Training, System Integration Testing (as required), and end-user training. These lead to a finalized cut-over plan; migration to the production environment; and technical and business go-lives. Clients are introduced to Customer Support and Account Management contacts responsible for ongoing ServiceMax support.

ADOPT

At ServiceMax, being “customer obsessed” means being committed to ongoing adoption and success from using our solution. In this stage we conduct a project retrospective, review the change management plan, and establish how success metrics will be tracked. The Customer Account Management team closes out the stage with a review of ongoing enagements.

VALUE GAIN & EXPAND

To ensure our solution’s value continues to grow for our customers, Professional Services monitors for opportunities to optimize. We also review the effectiveness of the Build, Rollout, and Adopt stages; explore opportunities arising from new functionality; and support deployment expansion into existing and new geographies.
