Defined outcomes
Start by agreeing what successful implementation means for your business.
Implementation & Success
QPD is an operational platform, not a tool we expect you to configure alone. Our Implementation & Success Package gives you structured consultancy time to define the project, configure QPD, migrate agreed data, validate the solution and prepare your team for go-live.
One implementation approach. Consultancy time scaled to your QPD user band.
A structured start
We don’t offer Bronze, Silver and Gold implementation packages. Every customer follows the same structured approach, with a consultancy allowance based on their QPD user band. How that time is used depends on what your business actually needs.
Start by agreeing what successful implementation means for your business.
Use the included allowance where it creates the most value across configuration, migration, validation and training.
If additional consultancy is required, we agree it with you before carrying out the work.
The implementation journey
Define
Establish the project team, understand how work currently moves from opportunity through delivery, identify data sources and agree tangible success criteria.
Configure & Migrate
Using the agreed scope, we configure your QPD environment and migrate the agreed business data.
The exact migration scope is agreed during project definition.
Review & Validate
Before wider user training, we demonstrate your configured QPD environment using your setup and migrated data. Your project team can review the agreed workflows, validate the configuration and identify any agreed refinements.
Train
Once the environment has been reviewed and validated, we train users around the workflows they will actually use.
Go Live
Move the agreed workflows into live use with continued support during the transition.
Going further
Manufacturing Operations and Advanced Resource Planning extend QPD into more specialised operational processes. Where these packs form part of your implementation, we’ll identify any additional configuration, migration or training requirements during project definition.
Implementation may include BOM structures, materials, operations, manufacturing resources, routing and related configuration.
Implementation may include people and machines, availability, working patterns, capacity planning and resource assignment.
Purchasing an optional pack does not automatically create an additional implementation charge. Where additional consultancy time is required, it will be agreed before the work is carried out.
Simple, transparent pricing
Your Implementation & Success Package includes a consultancy allowance based on your QPD user band.
Standard additional consultancy
£1,000/day
The included time can be used across the implementation process according to the agreed project scope. Additional time is only added where required and agreed with you in advance.
See QPD pricing90-Day Money-Back Guarantee
Customers who purchase and complete a QPD Implementation & Success Package are eligible for our 90-day money-back guarantee. It gives your business the opportunity to implement QPD properly, train your team and use the platform in live operation before making the final judgement.
This is not a free trial. It is our commitment to customers who engage with the implementation process and give QPD a genuine opportunity to work within their business.
1. ELIGIBILITY
The guarantee is available to new QPD customers who purchase an eligible QPD subscription together with the QPD Implementation & Success Package.
2. IMPLEMENTATION PARTICIPATION
The customer must participate reasonably in the agreed implementation process, including providing required information and data, making appropriate stakeholders available, completing agreed validation and UAT activities, and making relevant users available for training.
3. GO-LIVE AND USE
The customer must make reasonable efforts to deploy and use QPD for the agreed workflows following implementation, giving the platform a genuine opportunity to operate within the business.
4. GUARANTEE PERIOD
The 90-day guarantee period begins from the agreed QPD go-live date. The go-live date will be agreed as part of the implementation process and should not be unreasonably delayed by either party.
5. EXERCISING THE GUARANTEE
If, after implementation and genuine live use, the customer determines that QPD is not the right fit for their business, they may exercise the guarantee by notifying QPD in writing within the 90-day guarantee period.
6. CUSTOMER COOPERATION
The guarantee is intended to protect customers where QPD genuinely proves unsuitable following proper implementation and use. It does not apply where implementation cannot be completed, or QPD cannot reasonably be adopted, because the customer has not provided agreed information, access, participation or resources.
7. WHAT THE GUARANTEE COVERS
If the guarantee is validly exercised, QPD will refund the subscription fees paid for the eligible QPD subscription together with the fee paid for the standard Implementation & Success Package.
Additional consultancy, additional training, travel and expenses, third-party costs and separately commissioned services are not refundable under the guarantee.
8. ACCOUNT CLOSURE AND CUSTOMER DATA
Where the guarantee is exercised, the QPD subscription will end and access to the platform will cease. The customer will be given a reasonable opportunity to export their data before the account is closed.
