Our Solution
Clients select required data management services from the range offered by TecSurge. Unit rates for the chosen services are then agreed, and a budget established based on forecast demand.
At the point of demand, project personnel can request the delivery of any in-scope service via the TecSurge OnDemand portal, provide the necessary inputs, and service delivery can proceed pending approval.
Data Management services are then invoiced against the customer budget based upon the actual quantities and pre-agreed unit rates, with regular reports ensuring transparency of the process and demand.
