Our offerings

The Siebel practice at Consulting 101 offers its customers end-to-end Siebel consulting services, from Initiation to deployment of the chosen solution to maintenance and support.

`Pre-Implementation' offerings

Strategy and road map
This involves understanding the business vision, strategy and goals, studying the current business processes and systems, capturing high-level Siebel requirements, and suggesting a Siebel implementation road map.

Proof of concept
This involves building and demonstrating a siebel prototype to establish that the product or custom solution satisfies business requirements.

Business process mapping and gap analysis
This involves mapping the customer's business processes to those of the selected Siebel product. Functionality gaps in the product, i.e., the desired functionality not met by the Siebel product, are identified and customizations or alternatives suggested.

Solution architecture
This involves the architecture of the various components of a Siebel solution and the required interfaces of the Siebel product with the back-end / legacy systems.

Audit
This involves conducting an audit of the existing Siebel solution and suggesting corrective steps in terms of improvements, modifications, or upgrades.

Upgrade assessment
This involves a high-level understanding of current customization and future requirements, and analysis and impact assessment with respect to the target version. The high-level upgrade project plan and a determination of the commercial implications enables the customer to decide whether to upgrade, re-implement a solution or maintain status quo.

'Implementation' offerings

Build
This involves deployment of the Siebel solution and includes activities such as requirement analysis, designing, configuring, testing, user training and deployment rollout.

Product upgradation
This involves upgrading from the existing version to the newer version of the Siebel solution, e.g., Siebel 6 to Siebel 7.

Application integration
This involves designing and building real-time or batch interfaces between the Siebel solution and legacy or ERP systems. This could involve initial data load, periodic data migration or real time integration.

Product Migration
This involves migrating the Siebel functionality from an existing Siebel solution or a legacy system, to the new Siebel solution.

Customer data consolidation
This involves designing, building and deploying a consolidated customer data model, data cleansing, deduplication and data validation rules.

Custom reports development
This involves building of customized reports using the chosen reporting tool.

Application testing
This consists of testing the Siebel solution using real or simulated business data to ensure performance as per required standards. The testing process consists of unit, system and integration testing, and is automated using the appropriate testing tools.

User training
This involves training the users or superusers from the customer's organisation, on the Siebel solution's functionality, features, navigation, usage, as well as system administration.

'Post-Implementation' offerings

Application management outsourcing
This involves the maintenance and support of the customer's existing Siebel solution, e.g., providing helpdesk facilities, DBA support, and application maintenance support on 24X7 basis.

Deployment rollout
This involves the rollout of the existing Siebel solution to new businesses, divisions or locations of the customer's organization.

Performance optimization
This involves analyzing and testing the Siebel solution for performance and tuning the same to optimize the performance as per the defined standards.
