Why Fix it if it is not Broken

Are you using a management system which is great but possibly old or outdated?

It is often the case that agencies feel their system is not broken and see no need to consider change… but possibly the reality is that it is!  Express Systems consult with many agencies who have ‘systems’ only to find that a large percentage of the management information is being generated in excel outside of the system and either there is considerable duplication of entry or there are gaps where some information from some staffing areas do not merge.  A good Agency management system should deliver the management information and not be re-keyed in excel which we all know is very time consuming.

Sometimes it is worth just looking at  systems in the marketing place as it will educate you on what you system should or won’t do.   I know that the old saying ‘why fix it if it is not broken’ is true but also consider the time and ease of use of your system…  How about asking ” is there another way of doing it?”

And possibly bring to mind another old expression ‘if you keep doing what you have always done, you will keep on getting what you have always got”. Change is good and you never know what might happen!
