20Implementation Challenges Lessons Learned
- Carefully and conservatively estimate the
resources and time required for data conversion
from multiple, disparate systems - Identify and document reporting functional
requirements early in the implementation cycle.
Multiple systems led to increased need for
enhanced reports (Discoverer, 6i) - Identify specific resources to focus solely on
training course development and delivery - Focus on the people aspects of the
implementation Organizational Change Management
is Key - Ensure appropriate business representation from
business units and regions worldwide throughout
the implementation - Dont under-estimate the cross functional impacts
to other departments (HR, AP, AR, Purchasing)
