IT Projects

The Ferguson Solutions Group delivers expert capability for clients looking to outsource turnkey, fixed-cost IT projects. Whether the anticipated outcome is improved productivity, better data collection and management, more efficient recordkeeping or combinations of benefits, each project starts with a detailed project plan that includes appropriate milestones and deadlines to deliver the IT results that the client envisions – on time, on budget.

We apply our proven experience to provide IT solutions to meet the business needs of our clients. We believe that our experience with a long-term client base across diverse industries enables us to incorporate the best from each completed project into every future project we undertake. Work completed by the Solutions Group is uniquely different than typical staff augmentation work at a client site. For each project, FCI will guarantee total satisfaction to our client, operating toward an end product with certainty – versus services/staff augmentation. Our goal is to provide a smooth ride for the client on the construction and delivery of the total solution.

The solutions that we provide range from analysis efforts – fit/gap, AS IS/TO BE, business/requirements elicitation – and technical assessments to the design, development, testing, implementation and support of new and existing systems. All projects are managed based on completion of agreed upon deliverables to ensure that budgets and timelines are met and that our client’s expectations are fulfilled. Projects are completed by a select team of seasoned Ferguson employees whom we have chosen because they are overachievers and have a track record of exceptional performance for and with our customer base. Our team has the expertise to work with the technology that offers our customers the very best technical solutions in the most efficient manner possible – which allows our clients to keep budget and scope under control.

My thanks to the FSG team for doing such a fabulous job on our project so far. I’ll be totally honest here and say that I’ve been very candid with the business teams regarding Ferguson’s deliverables and work ethic. I’ve stressed how Ferguson has set the precedent for what a vendor needs to encompass here. I appreciate all the hard work and everyone staying sharp on a daily basis.
