"These recommendations are driven by the need to ensure compliance in an everchanging regulatory landscape to improve business intelligence capabilities for effectively evaluating and implementing innovative contracting strategies," said Ed Masterson, Senior Vice President, Consulting Operations, ALSCG. ALSCG used a methodology that established a Program Management Office specific to
Revenue Management Systems Implementations that provides all project managers with easy access to templates, strategic planning considerations, and risks and pitfalls to avoid.

"Through this centralized management approach, the risk of project overruns will be minimized and the cross-client focus on software quality assurance will help reduce scheduling effects that arise from unforeseen issues," said Masterson. ALSCG further discusses critical success factors for implementing integrated Revenue Contract Management (RCM) Solutions, and the opportunities for expanding the value proposition, in a newly published white paper, "Revenue Contract Management System Implementations: The Secrets of Your Success," co-authored by Jim Burke, Vice President, Contract Management Solutions, and Managing Consultant, Richard Butler.
