Data interpretation remains the core feature and benefit of any B-BBEE Software solution. An organization’s chosen software should be able to take all the relevant data, extract critical information which will effectively allow an organization to create, shape and drive their Transformation strategy.
There are several B-BBEE Software solutions available in the market. It can be difficult for an organization to select a service provider to suit their wants and needs.
Hereunder are some considerations to consider:
- Most B-BBEE Software solutions are subscription based, with an annual license fee payable either 12 months in advance or on a month-to-month basis.
- A user-friendly solution is essential. Request a no obligation demonstration package, in order to become familiar with the B-BBEE software.
- Ongoing quality support is critical. Investigate what support is available as well as the various ways this support may be gained, whether it is via email, phone or online chat.
- Does the B-BBEE Software provide for collaboration functionality?
- Ensure reporting and analytics are relevant.
- Does the B-BBEE Software allow for add-ons?
It is imperative that a chosen service provider can ensure up-to-date revisions of the B-BBEE Regulations and Amended Codes. This should be done in real time, as the amendments are gazette or announced by the Department of Trade and Industry.
