Introduction

At JALUR, led by a seasoned expert with 24 years of experience in managing SAP projects, we specialize in providing top-tier IT consultant support through our Indonesia-based team. Our skilled professionals, known as 'JALUR Assist Consultants', cater primarily to consulting firms and company IT PMOs, offering a cost-effective and proficient alternative to traditional consulting models.

Challenges with Conventional Consulting Models

The standard approach to IT project implementation through large consulting firms or independent project consultants is fraught with inefficiencies and high costs. These consultants, while experts, come at a premium and require significant investment in training to understand specific business systems. Post-implementation, they exit the project, leaving behind support teams who often lack the deep knowledge necessary to manage the system effectively. This scenario typically results in prolonged issue resolution times and makeshift solutions that complicate system management further, driving up costs.

The Limitations of Freelance Consultants and Big Firms

Freelance consultants, though they deliver high-quality work due to their stake in maintaining a strong reputation, come with their own set of challenges, including high costs and the risk of discontinuity mid-project. Large consulting firms, incentivized by the prospect of ongoing support fees, may rush projects leading to underdeveloped solutions that cost more in the long run.

The JALUR Advantage: A Dual Approach

JALUR revolutionizes IT project delivery by blending the best attributes of freelance expertise and in-depth, ongoing support. Our model involves freelance consultants who engage directly with your business for high-level tasks such as requirements gathering, solution workshops, user training, and UAT facilitation. Simultaneously, JALUR Assist Consultants handle the intensive technical tasks—system configuration, coding, solution research and workshops, documentation, and test execution. This dual approach ensures that strategic and operational tasks are managed efficiently in parallel, significantly reducing project timelines and costs.

Benefits of Partnering with JALUR

  • Unmatched Cost Efficiency: Our pricing model is designed to significantly undercut the costs associated with both freelance and big consulting firms without compromising on quality.
  • Guaranteed Knowledge Continuity: The risk of losing a consultant mid-project can jeopardize timelines and quality. Our consultants provide a knowledge safety net, offering seamless continuity.
  • Accelerated Project Delivery: By dividing focus between client-facing and back-end operations, we ensure faster and more efficient project completion.
  • Seamless Transition to Support: Our consultants, familiar with your project from the onset, transition smoothly into support roles, ensuring long-term system efficiency and stability.
  • Enhanced Communication: A 'JALUR Assist Support Manager' acts as your primary contact, maintaining clear and effective communication throughout the project lifecycle.
