ERP Implementation Planning Should Prepare You to Run It

A lot of ERP work gets pushed to "after go-live," and then it gets done in a hurry, if at all.

Learning the system, securing it, and deciding who runs it are three items that tend to get pushed out. Ken Foley, Vice President of RPI Consultants' Infor Practice, returns to RPI Tech Connect to argue that ERP implementation planning should cover this work from day one

Drawing on nearly 30 years in the Lawson and Infor space, Ken covers role design across every CloudSuite application, the change control process auditors will eventually ask you to produce, and segregation of duties. Plus, hear why the first few months after go-live are busy enough with support issues that anything postponed gets postponed again.

If you’re considering an ERP project, this conversation is a must-listen before starting!
