LMS Consulting Services

We offer expert LMS consulting services to help clients optimize their learning management systems and achieve their business goals.

Learning Management System Planning

We design our LMS Planning service to help clients confidently upgrade their existing Learning Management System or renew their LMS contracts. We conduct a thorough, unbiased assessment of the current system, reviewing system documentation to identify gaps that must be addressed before embarking on a selection process.

Our experts then create a detailed Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the selection phase, providing a straightforward implementation and cost-planning roadmap. Finally, we estimate the costs involved and provide budget planning support, ensuring that our clients clearly understand the financial implications of their LMS decision.

By partnering with SkillQ for LMS Planning, organizations can make informed decisions about their learning management system, ensuring that it supports their business goals and growth plans. In addition, our personalized approach and expert guidance also provide clients with the confidence and knowledge they need to succeed in their learning and development initiatives.

ROI - LMS

An ROI (Return on Investment) analysis is crucial for organizations considering upgrading their LMS (Learning Management System) as it helps determine the feasibility and potential benefits of investing in a new system. In addition, it enables decision-makers to evaluate the project’s costs against the expected benefits, such as improved efficiency, increased revenue, and reduced content creation costs.

By calculating the ROI, decision-makers can make informed decisions about whether to proceed with the project, optimize it for maximum ROI, or mitigate risks that could impact the ROI. The analysis can also identify uncertainties or risks that may affect the project, allowing for a more accurate assessment of the potential benefits and costs. Overall, the ROI analysis ensures that the new LMS is a financially sound investment that will benefit the organization significantly.

Our LMS consultants can help you craft a compelling case for investing in enhancing, upgrading, or replacing your current LMS by identifying the new system’s tangible and intangible benefits. We will collaborate with your Chief Learning Officer (CLO) or learning and development leaders to complete the ROI analysis and provide support when presenting the business case to the executive team.

Needs Assessment

At SkillQ, we recognize that each organization has unique needs and requirements for implementing a new Learning Management System (LMS). That’s why we offer a comprehensive Needs Assessment service to help you gain a thorough understanding of your organization’s specific needs and demands.

Our approach to Needs Assessment involves collaborating closely with your team to understand your organization’s goals, objectives, and challenges. We gather and analyze qualitative and quantitative data, including stakeholder feedback, usage data, and system requirements, to identify any potential issues and opportunities for growth.

Our team of experts then prioritizes the identified needs based on urgency, feasibility, and potential impact on the business. Finally, we document these prioritized needs as input to business requirements, ensuring alignment between investment decisions and your organization’s objectives and goals.

At SkillQ, we believe that a comprehensive Needs Assessment is a critical first step in ensuring a successful LMS implementation. To learn more about one example of how we help organizations identify needs, review our Needs Assessment Case Study.

LMS System Requirements

We understand that effective Learning Management System selection requires well-documented business requirements. However, vague or poorly documented requirements can lead to overlooked gaps in system capabilities, hindering the success of the LMS implementation. Therefore, our LMS consultants work closely with clients’ stakeholders to ensure all voices are heard and included in the selection process.

We provide hands-on guidance to stakeholders and HR leaders in formulating comprehensive and detailed requirements. Our expert guidance and personalized approach ensure that you thoroughly consider all requirements. By collaborating with SkillQ for your LMS selection process, you can be confident that your new system will effectively support your business needs.

Our personalized approach to LMS system requirements ensures that all client requirements are thoroughly considered, ultimately driving success in your learning and development initiatives. In addition, we guide developing use cases to support the Business Requirements Document (BRD), as well as on system and configuration documentation. With our expertise and support, you can be sure that your LMS selection process will result in an effective system that meets your needs.

LMS Request for Information (RFI)

SkillQ Consulting helps organizations gather information about learning management system (LMS) capabilities, features, and pricing from potential vendors by creating a vendor Request for Information (RFI).

The RFI process is typically the first step in selecting an LMS vendor. By sending an RFI to several potential vendors, organizations can better understand the available options and compare vendors based on their responses. The RFI process also allows organizations to identify potential roadblocks and challenges that may arise during the selection and implementation process.

We have experience writing and responding to RFIs related to LMS selection processes. We can provide templates and tools to streamline the RFI process and ensure potential vendors receive the business and technical information needed to submit comprehensive responses. Our team can also help you evaluate vendor responses and narrow the list of possible vendors to fit your organization’s needs and goals.

SkillQ’s LMS Request for Information (RFI) service can help organizations start their LMS selection process on the right foot. By gathering comprehensive information from potential vendors and evaluating responses, organizations can make informed decisions and select an LMS vendor that meets their needs and goals.

LMS Request for Proposal (RFP)

Our LMS consulting services can help you create a request for proposal (RFP) for your Learning Management System selection process. We have extensive experience writing and responding to RFPs and are knowledgeable about industry best practices to ensure potential vendors receive the necessary business and technical information.

Our team is equipped with the expertise to guide you through the process and provide templates and tools to streamline the RFP process.
