Strategic guidance, not a build.
Salesforce consulting from Ascend is roadmap and advisory work: a Salesforce roadmap, an operating and governance model, and technical and architecture diagrams that document your systems, data, and processes. Ascend works with your stakeholders to understand where the business needs to go, then delivers a clear plan to get there.
Q: What does a Salesforce consulting engagement include?
A: A Salesforce consulting engagement with Ascend includes a Salesforce roadmap, guidance on governance and how to organize your delivery team, and architecture diagrams documenting your systems and data. The deliverable is a plan and a set of recommendations, not the build itself.
Q: How long does a Salesforce consulting engagement take?
A: Timeline depends on the scope of what you’re solving for and how many stakeholders are involved in discovery. Ascend scopes the engagement upfront and gives you a plan before work starts.
Discover, discuss, analyze, recommend.
Each consulting engagement starts with discovery: gathering stakeholders to understand your current state, goals, and challenges. From there, Ascend leads deep dive sessions on how your business operates day to day, analyzes what’s gathered, and delivers a solution recommendation the team can act on.
Before you build, or when the build has stalled.
A Salesforce roadmap matters most in two situations: before a new implementation, so the build has a clear plan behind it, or when an existing Salesforce environment has grown without one, and no one can say where it’s headed next. Ascend delivers the same roadmap discipline either way.
Q: Do I need consulting for a new implementation or for an existing environment?
A: Both. Ascend provides consulting whether you’re planning a new implementation or trying to bring structure to a Salesforce environment that’s already live. The deliverable, a roadmap and governance model, is the same either way.
About Salesforce Consulting
Salesforce consulting from Ascend Technologies delivers the plan for where your org needs to go, built around a roadmap and a governance model. Implementation builds the platform to that plan. Ascend scopes them as separate engagements, and many clients carry their roadmap straight into implementation with Ascend.
Yes, if your org has grown without a plan. A live Salesforce environment without a roadmap grows in whatever direction the last request pointed. Ascend Technologies assesses what you have and delivers a governance model and roadmap that give it direction. If you first want to see where your org stands, start with Ascend Pulse, the free Salesforce health scan.
The core deliverable is a Salesforce roadmap. Ascend Technologies pairs it with an operating and governance model and with architecture diagrams that document your systems and data. The plan is yours to build from, with Ascend or without it.
From Roadmap to Build
A Salesforce roadmap is only useful if something acts on it. Once your consulting engagement delivers a plan, Ascend can carry it into implementation with the same team that built the roadmap, so nothing gets lost in translation. Talk to an expert to start with a roadmap.
