GETTING STARTED

Cannon's usual practice with a prospective Client is to conduct an Operations Analysis and Assessment of Operating Practices beginning with Engineering Design Documentation, Order Processing, all Manufacturing functions, Cost Accounting, Financial Accounting, after Shipment responsibility and Information Technology capabilities.

A "Report Card" assessment of specific activities under each Departmental function is reported as excellent, average or poor. Subsequently a presentation of Cannon's findings is made to management.

Afterward you may desire that Cannon make a proposal for the implementation of the MCS including projected Costs, Implementation Schedule, Operational and Financial Benefits (ROI) to be realized from the MCS. Once objectives and benefits are agreed upon, Cannon will help you achieve these benefits. (Occasionally we perform an Operations analysis to help management understand why performance is unsatisfactory).

MCS IMPLEMENTATION

Cannon assumes all responsibility for the direction and supervision of the implementation team, composed of Cannon and your employees. Weekly written reports and updated schedules are prepared by Cannon for your Management review and input.

CONVERSION OF CLIENT DATA

MCS conversion/startup programs are used to load your data into MCS. Training begins during conversion/startup. The MCS contract is a multi-year Agreement that after a fixed term renews automatically from year to year unless terminated by either party. Specific responsibilities of each party are described which if not performed are a basis for termination.
