TSC will work with AlliedSignal FM&T to transition and replace its homegrown custom legacy systems with the PeopleSoft product suite. Additionally, TSC's Change and Learning Technologies group will deliver change management consulting to strategically guide the entire AlliedSignal FM&T organization through the change management process towards a successful ERP implementation, and will develop a comprehensive education and training package designed to tactically optimize the assimilation to the PeopleSoft environment for AlliedSignal users.

Implementation of PeopleSoft will help AlliedSignal FM&T support better decision-making at all levels in the organization by providing more timely and relevant information; reduced operation costs and cycle times; improved information sharing, and the elimination of maintenance for a complex legacy system. In addition to allowing for the improvement of internal operations, it can also improve customer response time, effectively manage production capacity and supply chain throughput with suppliers and vendors, and significantly reduce the cost of product management.

This proprietary engineering methodology integrates Best Practices, PeopleSoft process models, change management, education and training which minimizes customization and maximizes the realization of project benefits. This methodology establishes out-of-the-box PeopleSoft based processes that can be rapidly implemented to reduce the overall time frame and cost of the implementation.
