Why It Matters

The most expensive mistakes happen before a single line of code

An integration approach chosen without weighing the alternatives can lock a project into months of avoidable rework. A dedicated consultant weighs the options while changing course is still cheap.

Options, Not Just an Opinion

A recommendation backed by the tradeoffs, not just instinct

A dedicated consultant lays out the realistic options for how systems could fit together, with cost, complexity and risk for each, so your team chooses with full information, not a gut call.

  • Realistic options, not a single default answer.
  • Tradeoffs on cost, complexity and risk.
  • A clear recommendation your team can act on.

Decided Once, Not Revisited Mid-Build

Design decisions made before, not during, development

Reopening an architecture decision mid-build is expensive for everyone involved. A dedicated consultant gets the key decisions made and documented before the build team commits time to them.

  • Key decisions made before build starts.
  • Decisions documented, with the reasoning behind them.
  • Fewer architecture changes mid-project.

FAQ

Hiring solution consultants, answered

What does a dedicated solution consultant do?
They design how systems, integrations and processes fit together across a project, present the realistic options with tradeoffs, and recommend an approach before development commits time and budget to it.
How is a solution consultant different from a functional consultant?
A functional consultant configures a specific ERP module against requirements. A solution consultant works at a higher level, designing how multiple systems and integrations fit together before configuration even starts. Larger projects often need both.
Do you bring in a solution consultant only at project kickoff?
Most engagements start at kickoff or during a major expansion, when the design decisions carry the most weight, though consultants also help mid-project when an integration or architecture decision needs revisiting.
Can the consultant work across multiple platforms or vendors?
Yes. Solution design usually spans more than one system, and the consultant is matched based on the specific combination of platforms and integrations your project involves.
What is the engagement model?
You can hire full time, part time, or scoped to the design phase of a project. Contracts scale as the design moves into build and configuration.
What if the consultant is not the right fit?
We replace the consultant at no extra cost during the engagement, and hand over design documentation and decision records to the new one.

Solution Consultant Hiring Features

How Hiring a Dedicated Solution Consultant Works

From the requirements call to a design your build team can commit to. Here is how we vet, match and onboard every solution consultant we place.

Core Process

Vetting, matching and onboarding, in that order

Vetting

Every consultant is tested on real design decisions

Before a consultant joins our bench, they are tested on tradeoff analysis and integration design, and a hands-on task recommending an architecture approach for a multi-system scenario.

  • Tradeoff analysis across options.
  • Integration and architecture design.
  • A real multi-system recommendation task.

Matching

You get a shortlist, not a resume pile

We match consultants to your specific setup: the systems and platforms involved, the integrations you need, and the timezone overlap that works for your team. You see 2 to 3 fitting profiles, not fifty.

  • Matched to your systems and platforms.
  • Matched to your integration needs.
  • Matched to your working hours.

Onboarding and Management

A structured start, then you take the lead

The consultant reviews your systems and constraints, agrees priorities with you, and runs the first design workshop in the first week. You manage priorities directly from there.

  • A review of your systems and constraints.
  • Agreed priorities for the first sprint.
  • Direct day-to-day management by your team.
