Professional Services Automation

Summary

ERP systems helped revolutionize blue-collar workers in manufacturing environments; PSA software is poised to set the same standard for white collars in just about any organization and particularly in project and service based settings. 

PSA represents the new area for organizations to achieve massive optimization: The service economy is a growing global phenomenon. Professional Services Automation (PSA) can bring tremendous automation and efficiencies to virtually any organization operating in any industry. Companies that have optimized their CRM (sell-side) and ERP (inventory and transaction focused) applications must look at new opportunities for internal improvements. Knowledge workers make up anywhere between 40% to 70% of global companies, but to date have achieved minimal improvement in productivity through technology as compared to the huge strides made in the revenue-generating portions of the business. The next round of technology enablement will be focused on the mid-office, projects and services component of the organization. 

This book is the first and most comprehensive textbook in the history of Professional Services Automation (PSA) software. It has 25 chapters spanning 300 pages filled with workflows, figures, charts, and diagrams that describe every PSA component, illustrate and clarify concepts visually to help project and service oriented organizations be more successful in obtaining maximum benefits from this new emerging class of enterprise software.
