PROJECT MANAGEMENT
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 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.
Client-Side Project Management (PMO)
We act as your internal ERP PMO without adding a full-time headcount. We track your (our) team’s deliverables, run steering committee meetings, lead weekly status calls, produce and maintain RAID logs, and are accountable for vendor coordination so the plan stays real and issues surface early. We manage scope, schedule, and budget, track change, and hold implementation partners accountable to what was sold, what’s in the SOW, and what your team can actually absorb. When a partner struggles, we step in, escalate with the software vendor, and, if necessary, run a targeted partner re-selection without blowing up the program.
Our consulting team has demonstrated a range of capabilities from presenting project reporting to C-Level executives at Fortune 500 companies to working with individual warehouse workers to understand and adapt to new technology such as handhelds. As project work concludes, we ensure your team is trained and capable of taking over the long-term maintenance and further development of the software applications.
ONE ACCOUNTABLE OWNER
A single point of coordination (“one throat to choke”) across your internal team, the ERP vendor, ISVs, and implementation partner.
RISK-DRIVEN GOVERNANCE
RAID/RIDAC, change control, and realistic timelines to protect scope, budget, and adoption, not just the project plan.
COURSE-CORRECTION WITHOUT CHAOS
We diagnose partner performance, escalate with facts, and manage any partner change-out while keeping business operations stable.
