Leaned out process
Ownership by business process owners
Effort estimation - Schedule, Resources
Clear ownership on requirements & in detailed description of each requirement
Understand the impact of Customizations
No change requests after requirement gathering freeze; unless absolute show stoppers
Data migration - Start very early in the game - Volume, data cleansing, Minimum 4 loads
Infrastructure support - Software, Hardware, Network
List down any parallel projects that need to be scheduled / worked-out with
Imagine, Plan, Discuss, Think, Brainstorm, Fine tune the go-live strategy to the operational level on the what, when, how, who, where and why of each small data creation & update
Don't change your business process owners in the midst. Have long term visibility before you enroll them on board
Have a good mix of Old timers, Medium experienced and recently joined process owners from each process. Inducting new hires with good experience in processes and best practices into the business at least one year before the planned start of the implementation project is a good option to consider
Consider training as an important task to connect to users and plan it ahead of time. Process owners need to drive this supported by project team
Don't overkill; don't try to achieve something from a business application that can be easily done in a different application. For example, BI is good for graphical reporting
Have a good mix in Project team - Business application experts with insight in Business processes & well informed of trends, best practices and innovation
Look at the broader plan where the implementation projects fits into. Implementation project should look seamless and clearly as a part of the long term initiative
Don't overwork, overstress your project team. Work hard, party harder !
Make your team understand that Internal selling is fatal
Right job to right person. Camel delivers best in desert !
No city council work. Two working, Twelve monitoring !
Lead the team from front. Catch the bull by the horns.
