ECS Reporting Advantage

What the Advantage does for you every month

ECS acts as your client-side reporting solution architect: we keep your Infor reporting improving, one prioritized item at a time, and show what changed.

$5,950/monthMonth to month with 30 days' notice. No minimum term, no setup fee. Your first 30 days are included with every improvement. Founding-client rate: our first five Advantage clients pay $4,500 a month, locked for 12 months.
See how the Advantage works →
PrioritizeEvery new reporting request is assessed and placed on one prioritized backlog, with who does each item.
DesignEach item gets a blueprint and acceptance criteria before anyone builds it, so "done" is agreed up front.
CoachA 60-minute working session every other week plus office hours, with up to three goals at a time.
Bring in a specialistWhen an item needs extra hands or a specialist, ECS can introduce a partner, with your permission, and agree the scope together.
ReportThree monthly deliverables: a Goal Review, a Value Scorecard with the evidence behind each result, and a Next-Month Plan for you to approve.
Keep it in one placeYour Client Hub holds your dashboard, courses, blueprints and your monthly Goal Review, Value Scorecard and Next-Month Plan.
When you need more hands

Some items need a specialist. We arrange them inside your Advantage.

Analyst help

Short on people?

A qualified Infor analyst works alongside your team on a backlog item, in fixed blocks of hours. Priced separately and quoted after your review.

Partner add-ons

Configuration beyond reporting

For example, Birst security so each manager sees only their department, or Reconciliation Management setup alongside a tie-out. Quoted by the partner.

Specialist referrals

Outside ECS's lane

Non-Infor tools and business-process work go to a specialist we trust. No referral fee charged to you.

How it stays simple for you

One backlog. Partner work sits on the same backlog and Client Hub as everything else. Defined first. ECS agrees the scope and acceptance criteria with you and your partner before any quote. You choose. No one is introduced without your permission, and each firm's part and price is shown up front. You confirm done. Your team checks the result against the agreed criteria. The hands-on work stays with your team or specialist.
For IT and Infor teams

Your team gets the reporting requests. ECS helps turn them into clear, measurable improvements.

ECS works alongside your Infor team and your partner, never in place of them. ECS designs each improvement, your team builds it, and the result is checked against your Infor data.

Clear requests before anything is built

ECS agrees the measure and acceptance criteria with the business first, so your team builds the right thing the first time.

Less back-and-forth

Every improvement is checked against your Infor data, so “is this report right?” gets answered with evidence, not another round of revisions.

Stronger report writers

Your team builds each improvement with a live workshop and a mini-course along the way, so the skills stay with your people.
