Framing the�challenge…
• Median�cost�of�an�ERP�solution:�$20�million• $4�million�in�hardware�and�software�
(accounted�for�as�investment)• $16�million�in�project�management,�

• To�keep�in�mind:• The�vast�majority�of�IT�implementation�costs�
never�shows�up�in�statistics�of�IT�investments• Complementary�organisational�change�4x�

• Action�plan�describes�stages�required�to�realise the�vision
• Actions�should�be�aligned�with�vision�goals
• As�project�evolves,�vision�refinement�process�should�be�undertaken

• Is�the�data�model�clear and�standardized?• Are�the�data�consistent�and�accurate?
• Usage• Is�the�system�actually used?• Is�the�use�of�the�new�system�controlled and�incentivized?
• User�satisfaction• How�satisfied are�the�users with the�new�system?
