TOTAL VALUE

Although an organization may have made significant investments in information technology, it can still fail to achieve significant return on those investments. The incongruity of this outcome is due to the relative value of an investment to the business. Investments that (a) contribute to the strategic imperatives of the enterprise (helping it to compete) or (b) significantly impact the business (such as decreased PC downtime or decreased frustration by making a process simpler) are more valuable than those that simply add productivity tools, create foundational infrastructure, or reduce direct costs.

Everest consultants possess in-depth knowledge of specific industries and business processes, as well as a broad understanding of markets and technological forces shaping the future. We combine those insights and our expertise from working with leading-edge client companies for more than 10 years with our unmatched intellectual property. These elements form the basis of our methodology and results-oriented approach to achieving maximum value through business solutions.

At Everest, we know that successful business solutions and relationships must center on creating and capturing value on an enterprise-wide basis. In fact, today’s information technology and business process solutions often must include the extended enterprise – integrating data, applications and systems of an organization’s customers, suppliers and partners. Simply identifying a business goal or problem and finding the most affordable solution does not ensure value for investment in the solution.

Value creation on an enterprise-wide level is an extremely complex procedure. Everest consultants use a set of building blocks called a “Total Value Analysis Framework” that helps clients deal with the issues, and evaluate and build solutions that hold more promise for success and the future. The Everest methodology and framework allows decision-makers to:

• Determine all aspects of the impact of a solution on the total enterprise
• Expose latent value
• Expose internal solutions or evaluate external solutions
• Identify fundamental areas of risk and meaningful constraints
• Identify creative ways to fund the investment for the solution
• Understand the organization’s ability to execute a desired solution
• Hone the best solution in order to capture the most value from it
• Implement the solution and manage change
• Manage the solution over the long term so that it will provide what it is intended to do.
