Your ERP implementation plan is a key element in the foundation of a successful ERP project. Working with client and vendor resources, Ultra’s ERP consultants drive the project management needed for a more predictable, on-time and on-budget transformation. We work with both the vendor implementation team and the client team to develop a detailed plan.
Determine the scope for each phase of the project. Ask yourself, “What are the software processes that will be implemented in phase 1 and beyond?”
Next, it is important to determine the ERP project team roles and responsibilities. Things to consider in this step include:
Define the right enterprise software implementation methodology for your company. What are the project phases, steps, and deliverables?
Assign tasks and hours to all resources, both client and vendor. Get agreement from both parties about the effort required in all phases of the plan. Included in this plan should be the following:
Define your project assumptions, i.e. what you expect to accomplish throughout the engagement.It is very important to get both the vendor team and client team buy into the ERP implementation plan.
The components of the plan should be put in a formal statement of work that is agreed to by both vendor and client.
Our experience shows that the hard work done in the business process optimization phase has a clear positive effect on implementation efficiency, project timeframe and time-to-benefit.
With our business process consultants managing your implementation, you ensure your solution is implemented and configured to achieve your future state.
