Purchasing Resources

SaaS implementation and licensing application workflow

Effective now, when a client approves the purchase of a new service, the following steps will occur to provide smoother handoffs and documentation that the service was configured accurately and completely:

  • The licensing, account login, or any other relevant kick-off information from the vendor will be emailed directly into the client/end-user’s ticket queue, thus creating a setup ticket; this should be assigned or picked up through your team’s normal process with guidance from a team lead/manager

  • The ticket that is created with the above-mentioned forwarded information will also contain a checklist of considerations and actionables

  • This checklist requires communicating back to orders@ounceit.com once the actionables are complete; this should be done from within the ticket prior to closing it out

For your convenience, a workflow visual is below to diagram the process of handoffs - this can be viewed in higher quality here. Please reach out to Amelia with any questions!
