Appointing a Project or Program Manager for an ERP implementation or a related project within your organization is the first critical step on the way to a successful completion of the business objectives.  Broad skills including working within your industry, implementing business applications, providing leadership, being organized, and having a strong network of resources are characteristics to look for in someone to fill this role.   

The Project Management Institute (PMI) awards a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification.  This thorough test and regular renewal requirements serve as an indication of a PM's understanding of project methodologies and continued work in the field.  Our principle consultant has been PMP in good standing for almost a decade.
