Personalized
A professional B2W implementation leader is assigned to lead the implementation process and tailor it the specific needs of each contractor. With one specific point of contact, contractors know exactly who to call about any aspect or phase of the process. The goal is for end users as well as the management team to be 100% live with new B2W Software applications the day after the training sessions end, with no “gotcha’s” or loose ends.
