The Progressive Approach
Share our Experience
Work Alongside Clients
Our consultants develop strong working relationships with all our clients. In addition to receiving direct access to the Progressive TSL help desk, during key stages, the Progressive team will also be available to provide hands-on assistance at our client sites across the globe.
Empower Individuals
Though we will always be available to offer assistance, a key deliverable for all our projects is to support and train client teams to be self-sufficient in using our Progressive Solutions to their full potential.
Build Long Term Relationships
The story never ends at Go-Live! We build lasting relationships with our clients that continue over many years. As our client’s businesses grow and change through time and new technology innovations become available, we will be there to support them on that journey.
Flexible Service Options
Our clients commence their relationship with Progressive at different stages on their journey - some of our clients engage us when they are just starting out and need a system to underpin their plans for growth; some are well established and may already have Infor or IBM systems in place, others have made recent acquisitions and need us to support them during a transitional phase. Wherever you are on the journey Progressive TSL offer a flexible range of services to address your needs:
