Topics addressed in this document
10. Quality
• Support customer business requirements analysis
• Organize workload estimates within PERFORM phases
Speed
• Improve(Turn Around Time) TAT ROM Delivery
• Leverage a check list with embedded implementation
know–how
• Compare sizing with similar customer situation
Results
• Provide business requirement’s baseline to manage
project scope
• Help protecting margin by comparing financial data
• Compute level of effort based on functional scope
analysis
Costs
• Optimize pre-sales costs by using Quotation Model
templates instead of starting from scratch
• Ammunition to sell deployment projects on level of
effort supported by detailed simulation rules based on
customer

INPUTS QUOTATION MODEL
Key inputs such as:
• Business Requirements/Process
• Data Flow & Type
• Customer project duration
Key Analysis factors such as :
• Custo/Config Complexity

OUTPUTS QUOTATION MODEL
Workload (on/offshore) per profile,
per PERFORM phases based on key
inputs and project management
parameters in compliance with Bid
Management policies.
Key Calculated Outputs such as:
• Nb of Workshop for blueprint
phase
• Project workload
• OOTB Coverage
13. Based on Best Practices PERFORM
methodology and on development
customer requirements complexity
Provides % OOTB coverage computation
Provides number of workshops estimates
for the ASSESS, DEFINE & DESIGN phases
Provides development effort estimates for
the BUILD&TEST phases to implement
customization
Includes onshore/offshore delivery model
Generates estimated workload per profile
per activities and planning
Inputs and recommended values can be
changed as long as they are documented
DOES NOT provide pricing since
another tool does it and is interfaced
with it
DOES NOT provide staffing plan
• Staffing plan managed in PSFT
DOES NOT provide customer
workload
• Might be considered into a future
release
