Our Six-Step Approach

Inmagic consultants are experts at assimilating your business vision into a blueprint for SKN implementations.We work closely with your to apply a proven six-step approach to ensure your success:

Step 1: Framing the Business Need

We work with you to thoroughly understand your organization and understand the specific business problem being addressed, as well as your short and long-term goals and objectives.

Step 2: Requirements Gathering 

In collaboration with you, we profile your user communities and design the desired end-user experience. We determine initial information mapping requirements - such as what content needs to be accessed by your business users and subject-matter experts - into your SKN. The result? A mutually agreed upon statement of work that presents roles and responsibilities in clear detail, ensuring a successful implementation, rapid time-to-value, and business benefit.

Step 3: Technology Readiness  

In this step, we analyze your system environment and determine whether or not all hardware and software requirements are understood and available. Once the system environment is optimized, the application infrastructure is set up.

Step 4: Environment Preparation  

Comprehensive data definitions are completed and imported into a production environment for your review. All necessary catalogs, modules, workflows, roles, content types, and social features are configured. The initial information views are presented to the defined internal and external user communities. In this step, we also spend time to understand your user, information access, and security requirements.

Step 5: Finalized Solution 

The data implementation and information views are completed and finalized, ensuring that all aspects of the solution have been implemented and your SKN is ready to launch.

Step 6: Training and Deployment 

Available remotely or on-site, our training programs are designed with your organization's needs in mind - with each user's success as our ultimate goal.
