Recommendations to others considering GSI, Inc.:
If you're evaluating GSI as a potential partner, here are my recommendations based on 15+ years of collaboration:
Engage them early in your planning process. GSI provides the most value when they can contribute to your strategic thinking from the outset. Their insights on technology roadmaps, implementation approaches, and potential challenges can help you avoid costly missteps and develop more robust plans. Don't wait until you've already defined your project parameters to bring them in.
Be transparent about your business challenges. GSI excels at understanding the intersection of technology and business needs. The more openly you share your organizational constraints, competitive pressures, and strategic objectives, the better they can tailor their approach to deliver meaningful outcomes beyond just technical implementation.
Leverage their full spectrum of expertise. While you might initially engage GSI for a specific need (like JD Edwards support or Oracle Cloud migration), their cross-platform knowledge can be invaluable. Consider how their expertise in related systems might benefit your broader technology ecosystem.
Invest in knowledge transfer. GSI is exceptional at building your team's capabilities alongside delivering solutions. Allocate time for your staff to work closely with GSI consultants and absorb their expertise. This investment pays dividends long after the engagement ends.
Establish clear success metrics together. Work with GSI to define concrete, measurable outcomes for your engagement. Their customer success programs are designed around achieving tangible results, and clearly articulated goals will help both teams stay aligned.
Consider them for ongoing managed services. Some of our most successful collaborations with GSI have evolved from project-based work to long-term managed service relationships. Their continuity of knowledge and proactive support model often delivers better outcomes than traditional break/fix approaches.
Communicate expectations openly. Like any partnership, clear communication is essential. GSI responds exceptionally well to direct feedback and is committed to addressing concerns promptly.
For organizations seeking expertise in JD Edwards, Oracle Cloud, or NetSuite, particularly those undertaking complex transformations or needing specialized support, GSI has consistently proven to be a valuable, reliable partner that delivers both technical excellence and business value.
