What does a HiBob implementation partner do?
A HiBob implementation partner works with your team to shape and configure the platform around your processes, data, countries and requirements. The work can include process design, data preparation, configuration, integrations, testing, training and handover. Confirm what the partner owns and what your team or HiBob implementation manager owns before work begins.
What does HiBob provide?
HiBob’s implementation packages provide an implementation manager. HiBob states configuration is completed by a partner or the customer’s own team. The organisation should agree responsibilities for configuration, data, payroll, approvals, testing, training and go-live with all parties.
How does Copieux work with HiBob?
Copieux is a HiBob Advisory Partner. We map the work, review and prepare data, configure and test agreed workflows with your team, support training and adoption, and prepare the admin handover. We coordinate with HiBob’s implementation manager and your chosen configuration team.
What should an implementation partner hand over?
The handover should include the agreed configuration, data and field definitions, workflow owners, permissions, testing evidence, known issues, admin instructions, change control and the next actions after go-live. This helps the internal team operate and improve the system.
How should a partner be selected?
Compare the partner’s experience with your scope, countries and systems. Ask who will configure, how they test, what is excluded, what your team must provide, who owns integrations and what support continues after launch. Review the total cost and delivery plan, not only the initial quote.
Does an implementation partner replace the client team?
No. Your team owns policy, data decisions, payroll approvals, process decisions and final acceptance. A partner should reduce delivery workload while involving the people who will operate the system. Build knowledge transfer and named owners into the plan.
