Section 1 - Assembling the Team

It takes a village to get a successful deployment that meets your needs, covers all your business processes and ultimately gets deployed to your users. For this, you will need a team to support your efforts.  Both the OPS-COM team and your organization must bring critical players to the table to ensure success.

If you cannot provide a project manager one will be provided by the OPS-COM team for a fee. Our teams will work together to come up with a plan that covers all aspects of OPS-COM deployment outlined below. Your Project Manager must have time to devote to the Rollout and must complete the Rollout documentation (homework (smile)) before training and setup sessions are booked.

Section 5 - Hosted Payment & Gateway Setup Information

Hosted Payments is the recommended way to handle most of your payments in the OPS-COM system. With Hosted Payments, the payment processor directly handles the payment method details and provides the end result to the client's service implementation. This provides you an additional layer of security because at no time is the credit card information presented to any other system than the payment processor. This also reduces the amount of data being passed from client software to the payment processor, as only the result of the transaction is communicated to client software.
