https://lnkd.in/gBDCtuar 🤺 Project Rescue 🚵♂️ Bring the ERP system implementation back to on track, or close to it. Align it with business objectives, and ensure that the delivered system will support organizational processes effectively. 🔊 Sometimes the implementation projects faces challenges and difficulties. It might be time to think of how to salvage the project and steer the implementation back into the right track. ➡ Our approach to Rescue Projects entails the following activities 🏍 Assessment and Analysis: Conducting a detailed analysis of the current state of the ERP system, including its configuration, data integrity, and user feedback. 🏍 Strategic Planning: Developing a strategic plan to address identified issues, which may involve reconfiguring the system, enhancing data migration processes, improving integration with other systems, or providing additional training to users. 🚴♂️ Customization and Optimization: Tailoring the ERP system to better align with the organization’s unique needs and optimizing its performance for enhanced efficiency. 🚴♀️ Change Management: Implementing change management strategies to ensure smooth transitions, user acceptance, and adoption of the revamped ERP system. 🤺 Testing and Quality Assurance: Rigorous testing to ensure that the modifications and enhancements do not introduce new issues and that the system operates seamlessly. 👉 User Training and Support: Providing comprehensive training to users on the updated ERP system and offering ongoing support to address any queries or issues. 🤖 Documentation: Updating system documentation to reflect the changes and improvements made during the rescue project. #Assessment #analysis #pmi #projectmanagement #strategy #changemanagement #testing #qualityassurance #UserTraining #support #documentation #oracle #ERP #fusion #supplychain #manufacturing

🔥 It is never enough to look through the window to see if it is raining ⛈ or sunny ☀️, later on the situation will be different. ERP projects and many other non-ERP projects have tools for their management and control. I believe that one very important is the analysis of the Critical Path, which allows us to know if we will arrive at the end on time as planned. In general, there are many activities in a project, but there are some that, being predecessors or successors, can affect the entire project if there are changes in the execution times. That is why this analysis must be included in the project reports and all those involved in the project must be informed. It is never enough to know the health of the project by looking only at the current situation, it is never enough to look through the window to see if it is raining or sunny, later on the situation will be different. Let us be careful and be alert to the alerts that the critical path provide us. 👀 #Management #ERP #Epicor #Netsuite #MinTic #Consultants

In the world of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) projects, completing each sprint poses a significant challenge for quality teams. These massive projects require immense effort to ensure system stability and effective performance. Among the primary challenges faced by quality teams is the tight timeframe allocated for testing, especially when testing is confined to basic scenario testing only. Here, the team must carefully prioritize and ensure testing of vital points that may greatly impact system performance. The complexity increases when tasks are designed to work programmatically for long periods, with little time available for testing. In this context, innovative and effective testing strategies are needed to identify potential errors early and rectify them. It is worth noting that when the development team enjoys the luxury of time and resources, the quality teams must also enjoy the same luxury. Investing in testing operations and providing adequate resources is not just an addition to the final stage of the development process, but a direct investment in the quality of the end product. Despite the importance of regression testing, it may not always be possible to conduct it as required due to time and resource constraints. In such cases, precise analysis and identifying critical testing points become necessary to deliver a stable and scalable ERP system. In summary, understanding the full impact of changes and designing effective testing strategies are fundamental to ensuring the quality and success of ERP projects. #SoftwareQualityAssurance #ERP #TestingChallenges #ResourceBalance

3 Red Flags Of ERP Project Failure When I look back at what causes ERP and IT Project failures, here are 3 red flags 🚩 to look out for: 1) Lack of detailed, integrated project schedule. 📆 Planning matters. The ERP delivery schedule must be meticulously planned out and include data migration, downstream systems, integrations, reporting, and all the vendors and system integrators. Without a clear roadmap, your ERP project will lack clear direction. 2) Unclear roles, responsibilities, and expectations. 🤼Clarity is king. Not knowing exactly who does what will lead to confusion and inefficient ERP project delivery. Make sure you have the right people in the right roles and review regularly. Including a single person leading and accountable for the project. Flexibility is key, be ready to reshuffle roles as your project progresses. 3) Allowing the system integrator to run the project. ⛰You need to lead the charge. System integrators are key to successful ERP project delivery but organizations must maintain control, leadership and align decisions with their business objectives. 👉 What sets off your ERP project alarm bells? 🚩 Share your red flags in the comments below. 🛫Follow me for insights on getting technology to work for you, save you time and grow your business. #Innovation #TechLeadersAcademy #GrowYourPMIncome

ERP implementation challenges can be daunting, but they are not insurmountable. Two of the most important success factors are the right technology and the right data management approach. https://hubs.ly/Q02xfVMn0

While the terms "consultant" and "implementation team" are often used interchangeably, and their areas of expertise and responsibility do overlap, there are key distinctions in their roles and responsibilities: 🔸 Consultants are typically brought in to provide strategic guidance, assess organizational needs, and manage change. They offer a holistic view of the ERP implementation process and focus on aligning technology with business objectives. 🔹 The implementation team is responsible for executing the technical aspects of the ERP implementation plan. This team can include technical consultants, developers, and even project managers who work collaboratively to configure the system, migrate data, and ensure a successful go-live. In essence, consultants are like strategic advisors, while the implementation team executes the plan devised by the consultants.
