Comprehensive Software Health Checks
Maintaining operational efficiency with your software is an ongoing process. Our health checks for existing Opcenter users are designed to ensure you are getting the best possible value from your investment. Over time, processes and personnel may change, leading to a potential underutilisation of the software’s capabilities.
The Purpose of a Health Check:
- Spend time with your planner to observe and review the current “Day in the Life of the Planner” process.
- Understand the challenges your planners and schedulers face and what additional functionality they would like from the tool.
- Assess how the software is currently being used, identifying any areas for improvement.

Key Benefits
- Optimising Value: Ensure you are still following the initial processes from your software implementation to maximise its functionality and return on investment.
- Knowledge Refresh: New users might not be aware of the full functionality that was built into the software during implementation. We help close these gaps.
- Expert Recommendations: A dedicated Kudos consultant will review your current processes and recommend improvements tailored to your needs.
