Please allow this letter to serve as my recommendation for Roy Hernandez and ThirdWave Corporation. Costa Mesa recently worked with ThirdWave to assist with the City's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) vendor selection and contract negotiation process. It was a genuinely pleasurable experience working with them.
ThirdWaves’s ERP experience, Project Management abilities, knowledge of ERP systems, and collaboration with the City Team made them a very reliable partner. ThirdWave was flexible throughout the vendor selection process and provided valuable input. Their proposal evaluations and detailed summary helped the City's selection team make informed decisions. Their cost proposals analysis helped the team understand the layered and complex cost structures. With their knowledge of government best practices, and ERP, they offered additional insights during the product/software demonstrations that also proved beneficial. Being expert contract negotiators, they negotiated terms with the top two vendors to secure contractual agreements that are financially and legally advantageous.
During implementation, the selected vendor and the project team heavily relied on ThirdWave's As-Is and To-Be process maps created during their proprietary Rapid Workflow sessions developed in the prior IT Strategic Plan. I highly recommend ThirdWave for your ERP vendor assessment needs and initiatives. The City of Costa Mesa had an excellent experience with them.

Working under an aggressive timeline, ThirdWave delivered the project on-time and exceeded project expectations.
Among the several information gathering exercises performed by ThirdWave, their patented Rapid Workflow® business process workshops were instrumental in providing a self-contained assessment of specific business challenges. This unique process helped identify business inefficiencies that formed the basis of the Digital Strategy recommendations and technology initiatives.
ThirdWave's unmatched data driven process and technical experience provided a foundation for supporting the formal project recommendations and implementation plan developed from the project.
In summary, I am extremely pleased with the services provided by ThirdWave. Their vast experience in developing organizational IT strategic plans came shining through in delivering an exceptional product that the City will benefit from for years to come. Roy, you and ThirdWave team are truly remarkable and have been a pleasure to work with. Thank You!
