Proposition Assessment

[cl_row][cl_column][cl_page_header title=”Proposition Assessment Service” background_image=”{}_-_json” type=”modern”][cl_text]

Technology is increasingly the key conduit for business and obtaining customer buy-in is important from the outset.  As a result, external evaluation of new and updated technology systems and propositions is is in growing demand from providers, platforms and client management systems (CMS) ahead of any formal launch and subsequent updates.

F&TRC is now offering a consultancy service to provide a structured assessment plus feedback on these systems and propositions.

About the service:

 

The purpose of an evaluation session is reviewing, evaluating and advising on the company proposition and strategies for adviser-facing software as well as other technologies.

 

The session will be a structured face-to-face meeting (normally at our offices in Oxford Street, London) or a web conference meeting, both involving selected members of F&TRC.

 

A standard session will consist of:

 

  • Basic information being provided by the client ahead of the session (see pre-requirements opposite)
  • Presentation of the proposition and system by the client to F&TRC consultants
  • Verbal feedback on both the system and proposition by F&TRC consultants
